Ok, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings remake, but these two taking One Ring to Mordor:

David Dixon as Ford Prefect and Simon Jones as Arthur Dent in the BBC TV adaptation of Douglas Adams’ “The Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”.

Good morning all, have a fine Saturday and weekend ✨️ Here is a golden sunset on a winterday back in 2025 for the #BlueSkyArtShow #Golden #ECK #mobilephonephotography Not everything that glitters is gold It is you who brings light to life.

A lovely golden sunset and beautiful sky that is reflected in the water. So as the naked trees and both side from the canal. Even in the winter the grass is still green and full with golden leaves.

The north door at St Edward’s Church, Stow-on-the-Wold, Cotswolds, has an ancient and knobbly yew tree on each side of the door. It is thought it may have inspired Tolkien for “Doors of Durin.” #AdoorableThursday #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKforKn #Trees #Churches #Literature #Photography #Cotswolds

Tolkien was a professor at Oxford University which is not far away and he was known to have visited the Cotswold and Stow in particular.
The Doors of Durin are in Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
This church porch was built about 300 years ago with the yew saplings planted at the same time. They are now part of the architraves of the door.

This should be MUCH bigger news than it appears to be. On its 250th anniversary, the St. Leger - one of five “Classic” races in Britain - has been won by a thoroughbred ridden by a female jockey. Saffie Osborne is the first female jockey ever to win a British Classic. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/horse-...

Some good information for users of ebooks from JMS, who’s been pivotal in championing Ellison’s work. The link is: www.amazon.com/Have-Mouth-M...

While I'm here, some news! The standalone version of Harlan's story I HAVE NO MOUTH AND I MUST SCREAM, with additional essays by Harlan and other pieces, is now available to read for free for those using Kindle Unlimited. I know this crowd is already well aware of the story, but if there's folks you know who haven't yet experienced it, here's a good opportunity.
