Middle-earth Christmas lists
If they celebrated Christmas in Middle-earth, what kinds of things would the characters put on their Christmas lists?
Bilbo: pocket handkerchiefs (so he'd have enough to keep one in every pocket he has, and wouldn't have to risk leaving his behind) Legolas: hairbrush mirror small enough to fit in his pocket, so he can always have it with him shampoo arrows Boromir: disco ball Aragorn: disco lessons so he can become the new disco king

Just one item on my shopping list for a very worthy recipient:
Elrond: A shed. As some of you will know, I feel that at times even the saintly Elrond must get a bit fed up of all the waifs, strays, distant relations and assorted hangers on who permanently clutter up his house- let alone the psycho-killer sons and airhead daughter :P . It doesn't have to be a shed as such, but he does need a place where he can get away from them all now and then. With a comfy chair, a supply of his favourite drink, books and his needle point...
