Edith and the Green Dragon??

Hotel - Ho-tel - not pub...

Tuor of Gondolin · 01-16-2005, 06:19 PM

The Hotel Miramar? Along the south coast of England, I believe.

Estelyn Telcontar · 01-17-2005, 01:27 PM

That's the one, Tuor! It's in Bournemouth, which is on the south coast of England, as you state. Go ahead with a new question!

Tuor of Gondolin · 01-17-2005, 01:50 PM

Okay.

What is the significance of Maitland Street for JRRT?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 01-17-2005, 03:48 PM

Tolkien was born in a house on that street in Bloemfontein S. Africa, I believe.

Tuor of Gondolin · 01-17-2005, 05:19 PM

Correct. Your turn.

What was the position JRRT accepted in 1925?
