Today Wellinghall Smial had a moot in to celebrate Hobbit week/day. We had some delicious hobbit food, read some Hobbit, talked some hobbit, Hobbit, and Hobbit movie, discussed PJ, CJRT, and The Professor, also said a lot of random stuff and had loads of laughs about how to "properly" pronouce names from the legendarium ("Is is
Ooo-eeee-nen, Ooo-
eee-nen, Winen, Uynen, what?..."). All in all, lots and lots of fun. Oh, and mathoms!
jallanite and myself represented the Toronto Downer community at the moot, and I think we might have convinced another Tolkien fan to join the Downs... We'll have half of Toronto on this site in another couple decades...
PS: we all agree passionately that the Arkenstone is NOT a silmaril!
