Dear Bagginses and Boffins, Tooks and Brandybucks, and Grubbs, and Chubbs, and Burrowses, and Hornblowers, and Bolgers, Bracegirdles, Goodbodies, Brockhouses and Proudfoots - and even you Sackville-Bagginses !!We wish to make an ANNOUNCEMENT!
We hobbits of the Shire of Victoria are having a BIRTHDAY!!
It is nowhere as grand as Bilbo's 111th but this May will be the 11th Birthday since dice were rolled and Pints were drunk here in the Shire of Victoria!
And so we have called you all together for a Purpose. Indeed, for Three Purposes!
First of all, to tell you that we are immensely fond of you all, and that eleven years is too short a time to game among such excellent and admirable hobbits.
Second, to celebrate our birthday, we are holding "a party of special magnificence" - a Doubles Tournament here in the centre of the City: 30-31st May, 2026.
Thirdly, the games will be set at 700 Points (with a fiddly 15 points which may be kindly swapped between pairs of players)....which leads me to say that as you are invited to a hobbit birthday, we feel it is only polite to arrive with a fine hobbit name for your Doubles Team - Team Took has a fine ring to it, for example. And who would not be tickled to have Team Proudfoot as a moniker?
As you all know, it is a tradition with us Hobbits to give gifts to others on our birthdays and we'll be certain to welcome the attendees in person at the new white gate, handing out a present to each visitor——(just don't be like some who secretly exit by a back way and come in again by the gate to get a second gift!)
And so, over the next week weeks we'll be busy writing and sending invitations, managing lists, packaging the gifts and hoping to be overwhelmed by the number of responses from all you fine hobbits.
