With the amount of babbling Tolkien does about Hobbits I think this might have been a boring discussion!
the rumor goes that when Tolkien announced to the group that he was going to begin work on The Hobbit (which he wrote AFTER The Lord of the Rings.... C.S. Lewis was reported to mutter ..."oh dear God not hobbits AGAIN"
was slightly concerned after seeing the cute blond child drinking from the paper cup, started scanning the audience for others that may have drinks in hand. I mean, Jim Jones was known to get around, she could seriously be a descendant ... these people worry me.
