MrPin Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I've just troughed through the entire Lord of The Rings. When I woke up this morning, I looked like Denethor, Steward of Gondor. Has anyone else here woken up looking like a LoTR character. Obviously for any Arwens or Eowyns out there, give me your phone number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Hovis Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I do that every couple of years, there are bits in it you miss when chasing the action. His nature writing is excellent and the lands around Bree are a good imagining of a 5th century Britain. Probably Borodin as I haven't shaved today.

Has anyone else here woken up looking like a LoTR character. Obviously for any Arwens or Eowyns out there, give me your phone number. Is this a euphemism to say that you have scoffed your way through a family size bag of onion ring crisps, or that you've eaten a whole bag of frozen supermarket home brand onion rings? I would suggest strictly fruit and veg today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snafu Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 With regards to Tom Bombadil. I read this expose/blog post on this particular character. And basically it was saying Tom Bombadil isn't just this fruity dude in the forest, but is rather the most evilest thing or somesuch. Like a really powerful creature. Quite interesting: http://km-515.livejournal.com/1042.html "What do we know about Tom Bombadil? He is fat and jolly and smiles all the time. He is friendly and gregarious and always ready to help travellers in distress. Except that none of that can possibly be true." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
