The little #peakdistrict village of Hathersage at first light on a winter morning. Only a few hardy souls ventured out, the old stone buildings glowed under the snow, and children on sledges filled the hills of the Hope Valley beyond. @vpdd

Late to this but no excuse from @oldvictheatre casting a sighted actor as Tyreseus. In fact it's a disgrace and I'm heartbroken by the lack of uproar from the rest of the theatre industry.

My sleepy home village of Hathersage this morning, as the snow fell softly and the lights twinkled. Only a few hardy souls were out, and me in my wellies. Hathersage has strong associations with Charlotte Bronte, and The George Inn is featured in her classic novel ‘Jane Eyre’.

Tolkien came across this postcard in the 1920s and years later wrote on its cover, “Origin of Gandalf.”

Listen to Professor Tolkien, friends. Take the hidden paths this new year.
ALT Still round the corner there may wait A new road or a secret gate And though I oft have passed them by A day will come at last when I Shall take the hidden paths that run West of the Moon and East of the Sun.
