It's a very minor issue, but the way Bill Ferny just ran off into the night without being heard from again always seemed to me like unfinished business. Maybe he could have turned up as a stowaway on Frodo's ship to the West and been thrown overboard by Galadriel.

No, no, precious! We need some mystery, some enigma! You don't have to have an explanation for everything in literature!

Inzil, I have excavated this from my early days on the downs. Nice to see I have at least been consistent in my dislike of Bombadil.

You know, Ferny's fate could be made into a smashing fanfic!

I always felt bad about Saruman's fate. Not only that Wormtongue killed him, but that he turned beggar and found satisfaction in destroying the Shire. He would have deserved better.
