: How many places does the Hobbit mention giants?

I only remember three off the top of my head:


1) During the storm when Bilbo saw the giants tossing
rocks from the cave in the High Pass.

2) After the escape from the Goblins, Gandalf said
something about getting a decent giant to seal
up the cave's entrance where they were taken by
the Goblins.

3) When telling Bilbo and the Dwarves about Beorn
(prior to actually meeting him), Gandalf speculated
Beorn's people came from the mountains before the
giants came, or something like that. Don't have
time to check right now.
