Happy Birthday, of course, to Bilbo and Frodo Baggins, without whom my life would be poorer.

Well said :-)

Did you see the article in the Grauniad that Christopher Tolkien is to publish a sort of novelization of a 'complete' "The Children of Hurin"? I do wonder what it'll be like - TCoH is something I've long felt might make a rather good film, but given CTs opinion of the Jackson films, I'm not sure of the prospects for that...

Happy birthday to the Ringbearers!
I hope the elves in Valinor are going to throw a party for them.

Oh no, I almost forgot. :(

But a toast to these two very fine gentlehobbits!

A day late, I'm afraid, but joining you in sending birthday greetings to the Ringbearers anway.
