Tinfang and Christmas

[fobria]

Do you know there's a very interesting connection between Tinfang and Christmas?  See the video below for an explanation which was only made a few days ago!  In celebration of this fact, Tinfang will be performing solo at the Frostbluff main gate on Landroval for the days until Christmas (and a little beyond).

That was very informative, fobria, thank you. By the way, do you capitalize "fobria," or not?

Maybe it's just the time of year, but I've been enjoying poetry more of late, will get out the old Tolkien books and recite some of his works today... Wish I had access to LOTRO, would catch your concerts!

I think Tolkien must have had "Twas the Night..." in mind when he authored his poem. The timing and the unusual metre does not seem like it could be coincidental.

Look at what I found: Fimi-Tinfang/St.Nick
Her written version of the YouTube.

BTW: Her copy of "Twas the Night..." is the same one I had as a kid. I think I still have it packed away somewhere.

Maybe Santa will put a PC in your stocking or maybe an Apple Tech Person to fix your problem with LotRO. Because, yes you would enjoy them!

Well, I never read about Tinfang Warble so I was enlightened by the links. Thank you, fobria and fan.

I wondered why Tinfang had different spelling on Landy and Laurelin. I guess other players relate to Tinfang Warble! I read fobria's if he had The One Ring account.

I was hoping there would be a pc or laptop under Andy's tree 🎄 this year, too.

This only just occurred to me now, but another small similarity both Tinfang and St. Nick share is that they both have beards. The name "Tinfang" means "Star-beard".
