An idea that came up during our small New Finland Moot.
hEY gUYS! We invite you to celebrate and/or lament the release of Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug with us in Helsinki in December. We got the first part a few days before most of you, so there's a chance you'll also get to see the second one earlier, and in any case it's more fun to see it with like-minded Tolkien fans. Dress code: Tolkien character, preferably one from the Hobbit/LOTR movies (but we'd prefer every character to appear just once).
More information obviously later, but we just want you to know this is happening.
Attending at least your friendly neighbourhood Finns yours truly (Fíli),
Thinlómien (Elrond),
Volo (Radagast),
Nogrod,
A Little Green (Thranduil), and
Legate of Amon Lanc (Saruman).
