A pity we can't meet, Esty. Copenhagen in early spring. Not much warmer than here! Thanks for that info about Tolkien's visit with Priscilla. As it turns out, the hotel we ultimately decided upon in Rome is half a block from the Opera House. Maybe I'll be able to find an historical marker, "JRR Tolkien sat here" on one of the chairs. (Or place one myself.

)

I have found a rather dismal note about Tolkien's reception in Italy: Left right, left right, left right, right and One says racist; another says racialist. (Scroll down to the English bit on that German site.) *sighs*

And thanks for the weather predictions, Mithalwen. I have found an online weather forecast for Rome with daily and two week projections. Now I have two sets of weather predictions to grumble about. (Isn't that what weather forecasts are for?)
