I am a Hobbit, I share my 'forename' with an actor from the trilogy...

You are either Hugo Boffin or Hugo Bracegirdle, both who share their name with Hugo Weaving.

My question was not clear enough, when I wrote Trilogy, I meant Fellowship, but thats my fault, not yours...
I was looking for Vigo Boffin (well at least you got the surname correct)...

but over to you Sean.

I thought of him as well, but isn't it Viggo ?

What did pippin think about the area known as Midgewater?

Natarn · **Posted:** Sat Sep 27, 2008 7:36 pm

That a summer resort should be opened there?

No, no, no!
Something about being eaten alive?

Did he say it was 'midgey' and 'watery'?

Erm...

If only I had a copy of the books to hand!

He did not think it was a nice place. :wink:

He thought that there were more midges than there was water.

Hey! You only get 1 question! But if they are anything like the midges over here, when the feeding's available they make the most of it.

Right, how many books make up The Lord of the Rings?

In Wolvercote we rest,
Surrounded by Granite stone,
Only 2 people lay here,
Yet 4 names on my tomb.

Who are we, and what is written :?:

NumenoreanLord · **Posted:** Sun Oct 05, 2008 4:24 am

Tolkien and his wife Edith (They are buried together). The other names are Beren and Luthien on the tomb.

gaarew · **Posted:** Sun Oct 05, 2008 8:07 am

You are J R R Tolkien and his wife. What is written is;

EDITH MARY TOLKIEN
LUTHIEN
1889 - 1971
JOHN RONALD
REUEL TOLKIEN
BEREN
1892 - 1973

DurinsBane · **Posted:** Wed Oct 08, 2008 10:07 am

Although John (Gaarew) is very descriptive, I have to give it to NumenoreanLord.

NumenoreanLord · **Posted:** Wed Oct 08, 2008 1:03 pm

Two questions in one I guess. Hope that's okay

We were seduced by evil,
Imprisoned in the earth.
Punished and awaiting release.
It is said we will be released on the day of the Last Battle to play our part.

Who are we? and Where were we imprisoned?

just saw this forum and thought i would chip in. i like quiz's.
Is it the Men of Dunharrow which were imprisoned beneath the Dwimorberg, the Haunted Mountain, and the valley of Harrowdale.
Hope thats right.

NumenoreanLord · **Posted:** Thu Oct 09, 2008 2:13 am

Good guess but sorry its incorrect for both.
This might be a little of a hard one.

I might give a clue if no one knows the answer soon.

thorgrim the 3rd · **Posted:** Thu Oct 09, 2008 6:00 am

he he he he he he :twisted:

i dont think well need your little clue NumenoreanLord.

I think i have it :idea:

Its the armies of Ar-Pharazôn the Golden, Which were imprisoned under the lands of Aman. :lol:

So hopefully i got it. Cause that took a lot of google searching. (woops did i say that)
