Of course it has to be Dylan Thomas and it did stir a faint memory, though not from the book you gave me. When I googled it I realised - "A Child's Christmas in Wales" was once in a Readers Digest that I saw. I was young and thought the manner of writing was very strange. Later I read Tom Robbins and never looked back.

Had you quoted "Now as I was young and easy under the apple boughs" I'd have had no trouble. All of which reminds me that somewhere in my VHS tapes I have the movie version of Under Milkwood - must find it and put it on a DVD.

"Now this is the law of the jungle, as old and as true as the sky
And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die."

No prizes for recognising Kipling, but a question: can you name two other poems that begin with: "This is the law of ..." both with the same metre as the Kipling poem. You will surely know the poets.

It was probably a better choice than The Silmarillion, where you really

True, but think about the fact that The Hobbit is subtitled "There and Back Again". Not exactly in keeping with a circumnavigation :)

Btw Jessica has said nothing of what she reads - if she reads.

The Titanic sank. Robinson Crusoe was shipwrecked. Moby Dick sank Captain Ahab's ship ... what are you trying to do to the poor girl?

As for The Lord of the Flies: that is hardly relevant to a solo sailor but again it's the shipwreck scenario.

I'd like to see her reading "How I Beat Abby" by Jessica Watson :) - a copy that fell through a timewarp of course.

I think you're all making a big mistake. Why would she want to read about great adventures at sea when she herself is having one? She probably wants to read in order to take her mind off the all-pervasive sea for a short time.

Oh btw I see that Laura Dekker is still potentially in the running for a solo non-stop circumnavigation and if she starts soon (the plan is about 6 months) she could yet beat both Jess and Abby as the youngest.

Hi Jeff,

If you look at

http://soloround.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

you'll see Abby's explanation for naming her boat "Wild Eyes". Not sure that I really understand it.

Don't know what to make of "myth educators". Is their education mythical or do they educate re myths?

Possibly a reference to Robert Asprin's Myth series which all (or  
almost all) had 'myth' in the title, usually by a word substitution  
(ie: Myth for Miss). There was at least 5 in the series, likely more.  
Fell under the category of "fantasy humour", quite similar to  
Pratchett's Discworld series.

BTW .. was down in Melbourne for the weekend .. just in time for the  
big storm. Sorry, no chance to catch up Jeff ... the weekend was spent  
catching up with Cynthia's family down there, seeing a play .. and  
trying not to drown. Oh, and ducking the hail.

cheers,
David

When I was young I got hold of a Mickey Mouse comic, the title of which was "The Ghost of Man-Eater Mountain". Perhaps that would be rendered into German as something like "Der Mannessenberggeist"

Hey Jeff,

I don't recall receiving your original e-mail. Hopefully I'm not 'losing'
it!

Yes - I called them last week and I have to firm up some details this week.
That part of it is under control. My main concern at the moment is the lack
of interest compared to the Seminar in 2007. We need another movie! :-)
Still, there's quite some time before August so we shall see! At worst it
will be an intimate Seminar amongst friends.

Memmingen! It was a long time ago but Merrie and I had half a day here. To
be honest I don't recall much, except for a fine bratwurst sausage I had for
lunch! 

Michael

Hi Jeff,

We were in Mt Waverley when the hail storm hit .. quite a few tennis 
balls and a LOT of golf balls. Not many smaller than that. By the time 
we got back to Melba city the flooding there had mostly gone, tho' there 
was still some.

The attached pix of the railway subway says it all.

cheers,
David

Kay Cottee had a nasty near encounter with a ship one dark night in 1988, when a freighter nearly ran her down. Of course Jessica got hit by a ship before she started her voyage but so far she hadn't encountered any other shipping, which might account for the following entry on her blog:

"for the first time in quite a while the AIS alarm went off yesterday, warning me of an approaching ship. Our paths looked set to pass pretty close and as it was a lovely clear day and I didn't happen to be sleeping at the time, I actually welcomed a bit of excitement. I pulled the washing down, brushed my hair and turned the stereo down in anticipation, so was a bit disappointed when they ended up passing too far off for me to make out the crew."

Oh dear! She probably had coffee and cakes ready too. :)

Jessica has now been alone at sea for over four months. I was thinking more of the stories in which sailors, pining for some company of the opposite sex, concocted the legends about mermaids, based on dugongs and manatees.

If Abby is reading Jess's blogs she might well think about how she could feel in a few months. :)

Jessica has mentioned them, but she didn't take in the washing or brush her hair when she saw one. Same thing for dolphins - they saw her au naturelle.

Hi all,

Thanks for the welcome, I'm a life-long fan of Tolkien, my grandma gave 
me 'The Hobbit' when I was five (initially I wasn't impressed and wanted 
a Tintin comic like my cousin!) From there, LOTR and the poetry etc. I 
also enjoy Tolkien inspired things, eg some games, the movies etc.

I'm in my mid 30s, work in Sydney in the Internet field for government. 
Am also fascinated by Old Norse literature & myths, trying to finish off 
a postgrad degree on that subject at the moment.

I have a young child and another on the way, which does limit how often 
I can get to events but I'll see what I can do.

cheers,
Leon

Hi Leon,

You're at Sydney uni doing a thesis on ravens in Old Norse lit in Religious
Studies? I knew you were a cultivated fellow, but I didn't know you had
reached such an enlightened state to be into Tolkien! Welcome to the list!

G'day Leon,

Feel free at any time to start off a new thread, whether Tolkien  
related or not. There's no moderation on this list .. apart from the  
restrictions on some attachments & total post size as mentioned in the  
welcome email.

Discussions here usually start on a Tolkien theme and then often  
wander off into wild and woolly territories that're totally unrelated.  
:)

You can browse the list archives back to when we moved from  
googlegroups and set up our own mail list. Just click on the mail-list  
button on the tolharndor.org website and then "list archives".

Things are quiet this month ... but usually it's busier. :)

The Hobbit was my first introduction ... when I was in my early teens  
in high school. It was one of the recommended texts .. the teacher  
said she was not going to use it since it was 'rubbish'... and since I  
didn't have a high opinion of her opinion, I went and read it. Oh, and  
the texts she chose ... definitely rubbish! :)

That was a few decades ago. :)  Yikes!!!

cheers,
David

I started reading THE LORD OF first.....I borrowed a v fine copy from a
teacher freind and went to Sydney....and promptly lost the book..........he
was Queen Victoria over that.

I had a lot of joy introducing JRRT's work to my two shining
daughters...they both loved it.
Und my grandson Angus....giving him JRRT related stuff is good,...he too is
a fan...Angus is 10 now..
near 2 year old grandaughter is to be next.

I think you have all caught up with the fact that even before I've set
sail...so to speak for Vienna....I have started VOl 2 of The Berggeist
Letters.
on a different bur vaguely related topic...hthe BE reckons that the
Niberlungen tales (lied) were Austrian created..........by UNKNOWN author(s)
Some where in the Danube Valley it was written..? in the 12th
Century.....there 3 main extant (original or near) copies...I will need to
know more of this v soon....er for Volume 2.
Auf.....jeff

I think I've now got that book, Jeff. Ros bought it cheap at a garage sale :)

Oh yes, and a Queen Victoria story: Ros's cousin, Dorothea, and herr husband, Gavin, were fixing a glass cover over a light in the kitchen. While fixing it in place Gavin managed to drop it and it was "cracked in an hundred shivers" (Shakespeare: Richard the Second Act 4). This caused Dorothea to rant and rave about how clumsy he was. I said that Gav should say "We are Dot abused".

Don't you think that might be a bit too young, Jeff?
I think of Kate Forsyth who has several times in my presence (and probably a few more in my absence) told of how she first read LotR when she was 6 and accidentally turned over two pages at a time, thereby missing the page on which the destruction of the Ring was described. If I ever find a Kate Forsyth book that has a pivotal action on one page near the end I may make up a similar story. Not that I'm actively looking.

Hey I would not do anything like that...........

'Ninety nine years ago a young man went walking in the mountains of
Switzerland in the Interlaken area....he was an Englishman.

He had what he described as a narrow escape in a glacial region....the
details are not with me and probably are not all that important.

Before the young man went home (he was almost what you call a Brummie....a
kind of a Southern Brummie......ask Mick he's as good as one too)...he
purchased some (picture) postcards..no Ted not dirty ones.
Ok so you know it was JRRT!
It was the Berggeist image.....which (I think) was called The Spirit of the
Mountains'.

JRRT took them home.
Afterwards...a long time after..he took  out the card ( the old man and the
fawn card) which was wrapped in a paper covering.
On the paper cover he wrote...'The original Gandalf.'...tale as told by
Carpenter.

Yes it is not such a bad story.

In Memmigen given luck and time I might know more. Josef Madlener lived
somewhere(near) to that much bombed city...but exactly where I dinnae ken?)
.....bombed during the GOOD war I mean.
I will not see the Berggeist painting in the original.....for that is in
private hands.....so I read.

But who knows?....see Vol 2.

Me? Dirty postcards? I have seen some and they were all British and old. Most (perhaps all) appeared to emanate from beachside holiday towns.

I remember that story of JRRT and the postcard. It was in Humphrey Carpenter's biography.

I have heard people suggest that the idea of Gandalf came from the notion of Merlin. Poppycock, flapdoodle and balderdash (to quote Tom Robbins about something else entirely). Granted that Lewis brought Merlin into his third Ransom story but his stories? were plainly and unashamedly Christian, whereas JRRT's (TH and LotR at least) were stated to be pre-Christian (although he did call LotR a "good Catholic story").

Ted,
A pre-Christian story is a fine notion of the BIG tale.

And yes we all can recall the red faced men and the very fat ladies at the
beach in glorious non tecniccolour postcards Ted.
Title of one which sticks with me.
Lady holds something close to the level of the sea...man standing quite near
to her...
'What is this thing called love?'...says she........
Boom ..crash

Hi Leon,

There are a few that I saw a long time ago. Probably the main one is a bbc
doc made in the early 90s (?). There's some interesting footage, though it's
not very informative.

I think I've got that. I taped it a few years ago and now have it on a DVD. It's about 45 minutes long. I don't know if it's available anywhere but I'm happy to do copies for the price of a DVD plus postage. I agree with Peter, however, in that it doesn't cover much of his life.

It's probably copyrighted but I don 't think anyone will worry much about copying - still I hope this doesn't get back to the Tolkien Family Company (or whatever his copyright holders are called).

As I understand it, "Brandywine" (the river) is a translation of "Baranduin" which means "ever brown". The implication in the word "brandywine" is that it is wine made for the purpose of distilling to make brandy, and I doubt that it would be suitable as an ingredient for cakes. However, if you can come up with a recipe I'll take a look at it.

No, because the price of honey is too high. If you ever hear of a source of (relatively) cheap honey I'd be very interested because I have all the equipment and chemicals (sources of phosphorus and nitrogen; citric and tartaric acid) available. Water's good here too.

I have still quite good stocks left. I tried some of my oldest (1980 - 30 yo!) a little while ago, and it's in fine condition. Mead never goes off unless you do something silly with it. It doesn't have the complexity of chemicals that wines typically have.

There are bee keepers around here but they all go for the boutique market :(

I tried some once, but they tasted terrible.

Of course I'm sure yours will be a big improvement. Does it feed the will and give strength to endure?

I've had this song on my computer for quite a long time now, but I don't recall discussing it with anyone. Having been working on, and thinking about, odysseys this song was bound to occur to me. Go to

http://www.prometheus-music.com/eli/virtual.html

and have a listen, courtesy Prometheus Music, Leslie Fish and perhaps Random Factors who was Leslie's main publisher.

Oh, btw I requested Emma Ayres of ABC Classic FM to mention tomorrow the destruction of the One Ring among the events she mentions that occurred on that day. She may not get the message in time but it's possible you'll hear it at either 6.05 am, 6.35 am or 7.10 am.

Clearly she's not a Tolkien fan!

Yesterday I wrote to her as follows:

> I hope that tomorrow you might be able to put in a mention of an important event that occurred on 25 March but in an imaginary year, specifically 3019 of the third age of Middle-Earth. I'm sure there are many people who are interested in the life and works of J. R. R. Tolkien and who also listen to ABC Classic FM. 

> This was the day that Sauron's Ring was destroyed, by its being cast into the Crack of Doom in the Fire Mountain, Orodruin (aka Amon Amarth). There is no need to elaborate on just how that happened - there may still be people out there who haven't read The Lord of the Rings and yet might read it in the future. 

Emma said, however, that this event *will* happen in the *future*!! She implied that it would happen in the year 3019 but she did not qualify the "3019" thereby implying that it would happen in 1009 years' time! Grr! This might have been the fault of the producer, as the producer generally reads the letters to the presenter and then tells the presenter what's in them. However I was not impressed!

Ted (who signed the letter "Edwin" and at least she got that right).

Answer is obvious....go searching for and steal a hive Ted....have you ever
thought of the reason why the peasants came to brew mead in the first place
thenTed?

Point is that the Lords owned everything and i mean everything yoy could nae
touch a single grain or a piece of fruit..blah blah.....
But...you cannot stop them from flogging a found hive in the wild...hide it
and brew from it...be a peasant again Ted!

Indeed ... and brandysnap cake is not the only food made using brandy  
.. there're several types of cakes and even wafer things you have with  
cream, strawberries etc.

You can also buy brandy essence for cooking ... in times past cooks  
would have used the real thing. Much the same as many use wine or even  
beer in their cooking. Heck, when I lived in the US I picked up a  
recipie book full of recipies that all used bourbon. I got it as a  
souvenier, not a recipie book, mind you.

Pity about the bees.

There's a guy at Riverstone who sells honey from a stall outside the  
front of his house. Dunno the prices ... what price range do you hope  
for?

cheers,
David

The following is part of the letter I sent through the ABC Classic FM website to Emma Ayres, weekday morning presenter:

-------------------------------------------------

I hope that tomorrow you might be able to put in a mention of an important event that occurred on 25 March but in an imaginary year, specifically 3019 of the third age of Middle-Earth. I'm sure there are many people who are interested in the life and works of J. R. R. Tolkien and who also listen to ABC Classic FM. 

This was the day that Sauron's Ring was destroyed, by its being cast into the Crack of Doom in the Fire Mountain, Orodruin (aka Amon Amarth). There is no need to elaborate on just how that happened - there may still be people out there who haven't read The Lord of the Rings and yet might read it in the future. 

-------------------------------------------------

I've attempted to attach two sound bites - one 203 Kb, the other 175 Kb. If this doesn't work I can send them separately. You will hear, I hope, that either Emma Ayres or her producer screwed up the thrust of the message, making it sound like a real event to occur in 1009 years' time.

- Edwin

I posted two sound bites which together were above the set limit for size of attachments.
While I await the attention of the moderator, I'll attach this rather shorter MP3 sound bite, which shows at least that Emma Ayres was courteous to me.

In one of the (unfortunately few) stories concerning Christopher Robin and Winnie the Pooh, Pooh considered eating honey and decided that, although eating honey was very pleasant, there was a moment before you started eating that was even better but he didn't know what it was called. He couldn't pronounce "anticipation" (let alone spell it).

Incidentally did you know that Winnie the Pooh was bought at Harrods in 1920?

Ted,

Any publicity is better than no publicity, especially if you Sauron! If Emma
was right Sauron would at least have time to plan another strategy.

I did not here it live, although funnily enough I listen to this station
more often now than I used too.

Hi Peter and Edwin,

I found two docos on DVD at the library this morning,

* JRR Tolkien: Master of the Rings, by Cromwell Productions, 2001
* Inside Tolkien's Fellowship of the Ring (first of three). Edgehill 2003.

Will report back.

Cover art for both is Bros. Hildebrandt.

As for the Tolkien copyrights - scary territory...

cheers,
Leon

Leon,

I am in possession of three DVD documentaries on Tolkien. One of them is JRR
Tolkien: Master of the Rings. The producers make a point of saying that they
have no affiliation to the Tolkien Estate - its almost a selling point.

The other one I have is the National Geographic: 'Beyond the Movie'.

But by far the most interesting one is 'JRRT - a Film Portrait of JRR
Tolkien'. It was completely endorsed by his children, and they all appear in
it. It's narrated by Judi Dench and runs for nearly two hours.
Unfortunately, I only have a VHS copy of this one.

Michael
