Legolas has just left Hobbiton.

A very Merry Christmas to you all!

It's written using Tengwar script, but the words are spelled in English so you need not translate, only decode. The Tengwar character that looks like "y" here is the English sound r; m = m, i = i/y (ee), q = k, h = s, p = t, ^ = y, o = oo. Now you can see it, eh?

That is some - but Father Christmas says I write even that too spidery and you would never read it.

Love Ilbereth.
And Father Christmas is quite right! Though some of the difficulty decoding might be down to the script still not being finalized yet, indeed if it ever was.
