Guinevere is a guest of Tom Bombadil.

I think Gimli had a very strong response to beauty which can be seen in his reaction to Aglarond - and his very spirited defence of it when Legolas makes his flippant response to his remarks. That exchange reminds me a bit of the ones with Eomer.
I agree very much with this, Mithalwen! Gimli may be rough on the outside, but he has the soul of a poet. I grieve at the onesided portrayal of him in the movies .
