When and Where you were born
I was born on the Moria on the Bridge of Khazad Dum day.....just a thought, I was born on the day Gandalf died...
I was born Jan. 15th, FYI So when, where, were you born? |

Uh, well I was born November 4th, 1986, in Glasgow, Scotland. Call me stupid, but why is this thread in the Movies forum?

I think Tariel is asking if your birthday corresponds to any events in Middle-earth?
Don't respond if it doesn't.

For my birthday, it says:
Gandalf crosses the Greyflood. Second night with Bombadil. It's not that important as say...Boromir's death, but it's still in the book!

My birthday is April 6, the day that Thranduil and Celborn met in Mirkwood after the War of the Ring and renamed it Greenwood the Great.

Evisse: January 15: The Bridge of Khazad-dūm, and the fall of Gandalf. The Company reaches Nimrodel late at night.
Mine is September 6th...."[The hobbits and Gandalf] halt in sight of the Mountains of Moria." Only 16 days from Bilbo and Frodo's birthday!

On my birthday, June 20th:
"Souron attacks Osgiliath. About the same time Thranduil is attacked, and Gollum escapes." That's pritty cool!

My birthday: September 30 -
Black Riders attack Crickhollow and the Prancing Pony in the early morning. The hobbits and Strider leave Bree in the late morning and enter the Chetwood. Gandalf comes to Crickhollow and reaches Bree at night. Well at least its something.. Off by 8 days from Frodo & Bilbo's birthday.

Nothing happened on my birthday, but something happened just before my birthday - October 11th.
"He [Glorfindel] drives the [Black?] Riders off the Bridge of Mitheithel."

A day before my birthday, Gandalf cast down the Balrog and passed away.
Brinn- 3 days before your b-day, Aragorn found the sapling of the White Tree on Mindolluin.

Okay, nothing happened on my birthday (July 11), but on July 10, Gandalf was imprisoned at Orthanc. Does that count?

On my Anniversary Frodo crosses the Ford of Bruinen.
On My Birthday the Fellowship is 5 days out from Rivendell. For those who are wondering where we are finding this info, check out ROTK appendix B.

The day after my birthday (May 19), Elrond and Arwen come to Lorien (May 20 , 3019, S.R. 1419) on the first leg of Arwen's pre-nuptial journey to Minas Tirith to marry King Elessar. Not a bad reference for a Bombadil, I'd say. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I have no clue what happened on/near my birthday (October 2nd) because my copy of LotR is one of those really old ones printed just after the animated movie was made (so it's really really old) and all it's got for appendices is a bit of The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen, which is a pain...
If anyone knows what happened on/near my birthday, please tell me. Thanks in advance.

My birthday (June 21) is the day after Sauron attacked Osgiliath. And about the same time Thranduil was attacked by orcs and Gollum escaped. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Nothing *officially* happens on my birthday, February 5th, the Fellowship is just resting in Lorien in the year 3018. Yep that's all I know.

Bah! Nothing happened on my birthday (oct 19) but on the 18th Glorfindel found Frodo in the dusk and on the 20th they crossed the Ford of Bruinen. So on my birthday Glorfindel and Frodo were visiting. How quaint.

My birthday is September 30th, same as MYyyPreciousSS, so on my b-day Fatty Bolger was having the most exciting day of his life. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
Airerūthiel, on your birthday Gandalf was travelling between Bree and Weathertop. On the day after your birthday he is attacked at night, and then three days later Frodo and Co. arrive.
