I am celebrating Thorin Thursday by having pre-ordered my dvd copy of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug —starring the exquisitely talented British actor Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield — due to be shipped/received April 8th!
I always buy my RA and other stuff via RANet’s Amazon links because RANet (www.RichardArmitageNet.com) donates their commission to one of RA’s charities. They just had a recent $522.48 pound donation. Impressive! Here are those Amazon links for you:

Oh and I also bought myself a gold plated rings ring for $7. Snap!
Have a gReAt day! Cheers! Grati;->
About Gratiana Lovelace
Gratiana Lovelace is my nom de plume for my creative writing and blogging. I write romantic stories in different sub genres. The stories just tumble out of me.
My resurgence in creative writing occurred when I viewed the BBC miniseries of Elizabeth Gaskell's novel North & South in February 2010. The exquisitely talented British actor portraying the male lead John Thornton in North & South--Richard Crispin Armitage--became my unofficial muse. I have written over 50 script stories about love--some are fan fiction, but most are original stories--that I am just beginning to share with others on private writer sites, and here on my blog. And as you know, my blog here is also relatively new--since August 2011. But, I'm having fun and I hope you enjoy reading my blog essays and my stories.

Something About Love (A) 
My oldest is DYING to see DOS. When I told her there was a third movie she was like, “This is worse than The Hunger Games!”

Giggles, Jazzbaby1!
I haven’t seen the Hunger Games, but I “grok” the reference. I wonder if your daughter would say the same about the Star Wars sextet. Ha! Thanks for liking and commenting.

Reblogged this on Me + Richard Armitage and commented:
As the press blitz for the DOS DVD release is about to begin (Richard Armitage will appear on ITV on Monday morning), a reminder from Grati that if you’re buying, to consider doing it through the RichardArmitageNet.com affiliate links, to generate a charitable contribution. Thanks.
