Welcome back, Grey Man. Whatever you did on your sabbatical it's obviously recharged your batteries. It's been a while since I saw so prolific a return.

The crazy things people will do.....
This one's a little strange! Outrage as J. R. R. Tolkien's Pipe and Teeth Appear on e-bay. At least we can definitively say this is a joke. Click on the other links on this website, and you'll see some announcements that are even whackier than this one.

Got a nice birthday greeting from the 'Downs, so I figured I'd stop in and say hello.
Three years ago today my Hobbit self came of age, if you take my meaning...ah, good times... Going out for an early dinner, soon. Have a lovely rest of your Veteran's day, all!

Ah, ok, here's where it's happening. I went and posted on the archived version of this - dementia settling in, I suppose.
Anyway, I guess I fall in the 'of age' category, although it's my nature to procrastinate and do everything late, from being born at 42 weeks to finishing college at 29 (if I do manage that, I still have a year to go.) I promise I won't speak again until I've read the thread and have something relevant to say.

Relevant? Who said anything about Relevant? As long as it's TOlkienish, of course.
Went to Stop & Shop a couple of days ago and got some amused looks, because my 7-year old was wearing his elvish tunic and cloak (tunic home-made, cloak by Raefindel.) He has almost-white hair. Dunno if there are any elves that classified as towheads, but folks notice anyway.

Slipping in for an ale & a sit down
Hello Old Downers!
Like Samwise, it occurred to me that I've been away for quite a long while -- far too long! This is always the first thread I check on the Downs, just to see who's about. I do believe I'll settle into a comfy chair and see if I can't rustle up some proper 1420 to drink while I look around. Welcome to the thread, Rikae! Glad you found it. Hmmm, what are the young folks in Chapter-by-Chapter up to these days?......

Nice to have you looking in, Alph! Yes, those young folks are plowing their way through the Silmarillion now; it's strenuous just to read, and would be much more so to take an active part!
