In this chapter "An Unexpected Party" from J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit," the title refers to the surprising and unplanned arrival of the group of dwarves at Bilbo Baggins' hobbit hole. The unexpected nature of their visit sets the stage for the adventures that follow in the story.
"The Lord of the Rings" by J.R.R. Tolkien begins with the famous line: "When Mr. Bilbo Baggins of Bag End announced that he would shortly be celebrating his eleventy-first birthday with a party of special magnificence, there was much talk and excitement in Hobbiton."
Bilbo had one unexpected visitor for Wednesday tea, and that visitor was Gandalf.
Bilbo Baggins was 50 years old when he set out on his adventure (that is, the Quest of Erebor) and turned 51 during the story (in Laketown, to be precise); 111 at his farewell party, 128 when Frodo sets out on his adventure, and 129 by the end of the War of the Ring (Bilbo's birthday was in September, and the War ended in March), and 131 when he sailed west with Frodo, Gandalf, Elrond, and Galadriel.
