Wanna stay at Hobbiton? The *actual* Hobbiton movie set?

Ataahua Forum Admin / Moderator Dec 6 2022, 7:12pm Views: 884 Wanna stay at Hobbiton? The *actual* Hobbiton movie set? Make yourself available to get to NZ in March next year, go in the draw, and cross your fingers to win one of three two-night stays for up to four people (at $10 per night). From the story: 'Winners will not only get to stay on site but have access to several locations featured in the movie franchises like the Hobbit Holes, The Millhouse and The Green Dragon Inn, and include experiences like a private tour of the movie set, and evening banquet in The Green Dragon Inn.' https://www.nzherald.co.nz/...GAZCW5A3RA5EPSBA7EM/ Now, let me get this next bit right ... *ahem* ... OMG OMG OMG that would be amazing!! Right, now that I've fed my inner fangirl - who's in? Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..." Dwarves: "Pretty rings..." Men: "Pretty rings..." Sauron: "Mine's better." "Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak. Fantasy novel - The Arcanist's Tattoo My LOTR fan-fiction

Ataahua Forum Admin / Moderator Dec 6 2022, 9:31pm Views: 862 Looks like I was wrong about it being a contest. It's more a first-in-first-served thing, thought still for only $10 a night. What an absolute steal. Is anyone going to try to get in on this? Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..." Dwarves: "Pretty rings..." Men: "Pretty rings..." Sauron: "Mine's better."

Lissuin Valinor Dec 6 2022, 10:08pm Views: 857 Yes, I'm in. What've we got to lose? If it's going to be an ongoing thing, it's bound to cost more than $10 a night. If it's only the one time, maybe we'll get lucky for a trip of a lifetime. This does sound like a grand opening gesture. Anywho, I would drive up and see some parts of the country I haven't till now. Or, even better, maybe take the train. I'll leave Bill the Pony in the stable.

dernwyn Forum Admin / Moderator Dec 12 2022, 10:17pm Views: 546 But... ...how is one to get an AirBNB history, if that's required to stay at one? *scratches head in confusion* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I desired dragons with a profound desire"
