The 'Woses' are the Wild Men of the Woods. Elfhelm of the Roherrim told Merry this.

Please forgive for hogging the Trivia board...but I LOVE Tolkien geography!
On the island of Númenor, the Nunduinë river flowed into Lake Nísinen and ultimately into Eldalondë.

Level = 2.0?
What was the exact date (day/month/year) that Bilbo left on his adventure with Thorin and the Dwarves?
Hint: The year is not listed in the Shire Reckoning.
Level = 2.5?
Extra points: Can you tell me what day of the week it was?

by hope
I believe Bilbo left on Thursday 28th April Year 2941
