Fleeting thought #10 {reading my way through Middle Earth!}

Hello friends, I hope you had a good week!

I suppose late is better than never right?! I truly meant to post this yesterday, but I’ve been a day behind all week (which is super annoying!) I even missed putting my recycling out!

Anywho…

We are closing in on the 25th of March which happens to be one of my favourite days of the year Tolkien reading day. For those who don’t know March 25th was the date Tolkien chose as the date that Frodo completed his quest and the Ring was destroyed (as set out in The Lord Of The Rings). Every year the Tolkien society (who organise the whole thing) encourage us Tolkien nerds to get together and read our favourite parts of the books/write poetry/dress up as hobbits etc…

…this years theme is fellowship and community which is rather lovely and I always find there to be quite a lot of fellowship from the community itself, I’ve taken part in many a read-along, art swaps or whole days chatting with other Tolkien nerds at various conventions.

On a side note this is the tenth Fleeting Thought (how cool is that!), if you’re reading one of my blog posts for the first time (hi/friendly wave) and if your back and happy to read more of my ramblings (massive hug and a beaming smile!!).

Is a quote from Terry Pratchett’s brilliant Discworld novel Night Watch. Sir Terry was a genius and is my favourite author second only to Tolkien.
