I meant come up with the idea of writing it on this thread rather than come up with it in the first place.

P2: Or Gimli Christmas?

P3: This is getting ridiculous... why even bother sticking to Tolkien? How about an Eönwë Christmas?

P1 and P2: *simultaneously* Uh... that is Tolkien...

P3: I meant the BDer

*spirals off into insanity*
*spirals back into sanity*

P1: So we're agreed on Meriadoc Christmas, right?

P2: Yeah, Merry isn't his full name, Kalimac doesn't sound right with English, and Shagrat and Teleporno... erm...

P3: Yeah, Meriadoc Christmas.

P1: Right.

P2: Yeah.

P3: So how about New Year? We can't use Meriadoc again.

P1: Or the others...

P2: I kind of liked P3's idea before. We don't need to stick to Tolkien, let's go for other mythologies.

P3: You mean like Njord New Year?

P1: Or Prometheus New Year?

P2: Quetzalcoatl New Year?

P3: How about Hapi New Year? It has a kind of ring to it (no pun intended).

P1: Pun, what pun?

P3: Because it's a Tolkien forum...

P1: Erm... ok. But yeah, I agree, Hapi New Year does sound good.

P2: Yeah.

P3: So we're agreed: Meriadoc Christmas and a Hapi New Year.

THE END

Happy New Year, Barrow Downs!

Now that that's settled, are you going to take on Kwanzaa? (a little late for Chanukkah, I'm afraid)

Won't be the new year for another 11 hours, here, but a Happy one to all!

A happy new year to everyone on the Downs! I'm glad I can bring this one in with a black and green screen!

P.S. Thank you Eönwë for finally settling that.

Happy New Year...at exactly 12 my time!

I wonder what this says, that I'm on at midnight on New Year's...huh.
