A still from the New Line Cinema Lord of the Rings Films, or Mordor - with Barad-Dur in the foreground, the eye of Sauron seeking hobbitses, and Mount Doom behind. Overlayed are the words to ‘Santa Claus is coming to town’, slightly changed for the occasion, to wit: He sees when you are sleeping / He knows when you’re awake / He knows if you’ve been bad or good / So keep it secret keep it safe // He’s got the Nazgûl and the Uruk-hai too / Everybody knows meat’s back on the menu (boys) / Sa-auron is coming to town / Sa-auron is coming to town / Sa-auron is coming to town (fly you fools!)

I think it’s about time…

A Meriadoc Christmas to all, and a Pippin’ New Year!
