"Ho! Ho! Ho! To the bottle I go"

The Corner of the Eagle and ChildPub, Oxford, where the Inklings met (1930–1950).

“Ho! Ho! Ho! To the bottle I go

To heal my heart and drown my woe

Rain may fall, and wind may blow

And many miles be still to go

But under a tall tree will I lie

And let the clouds go sailing by”

― J.R.R. Tolkien
