The New Hobbit Hole

[Sam Cree]

It looks a little like a Jack Russell

[2Jedismom]

Yeah...kind of with that squarish head...it has really long legs.

[2Jedismom]

It's definitely a smooth fox terrier...take a look at these off the web:

She is just like these.

Looks like I got here just in time to say goodnight to everyone.

I have tomorrow off. Yippee!

[2Jedismom]

'Night ecurb! Enjoy your day off.

[HairOfTheDog]

Hullo! - I am still here for the moment, as long as I last. Good night everyone who is bedward bound! I was out feeding my ponies their dinner, then had to prepare a post on another thread... Back now.

[whew]

[2Jedismom]

I'm going to bed! Been a long day! I took the boys to a park that had only 5-6 other kids playing in it (too many kids makes it too hard for me to keep a close eye on them). They played hard and I practiced my whistle. One little girl actually walked up to me and said "Nice whistle!" I nearly died! Most kids don't know what they are. She lollygagged around till I said "You want to hear me play it?" She just lit up and nodded! I played Arran Boat Song for her and she just stood so quiet. Nice!

[2Jedismom]

BTW, do you know what the song "Danny Boy" is about? Do you know the lyrics?

[HairOfTheDog]

How fun with your whistle!

.... Who is the dog sleeping with tonight?

[HairOfTheDog]

No, I don't know the words. Only the part that goes... Oh Dannyyyy boyyy um... la la lalalala.

I associate it with Irish policeman.

[2Jedismom]

Actually, it's a man singing to his son, who is going off to war. The man is ill and very likely will die before his son returns. The lyrics are heartbreaking...

Danny Boy
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.

And if you come, when all the flowers are dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.

And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.

I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.

[2Jedismom]

Oh, the dog is in with Steve ;-)

I'm going to try to move it in with Joshua here in a sec.

[HairOfTheDog]

The lyrics make sense for a policeman's funeral also [especially an Irish one] which is where I have heard it. Thanks for the words!

[2Jedismom]

Yep... I really love it.

Good night sis!

[HairOfTheDog]

Good night!

[HairOfTheDog]

Looks to me like the stakeholders are voting for a new separate TTT Green Dragon Thread and I am thinking we should start Friday!... Do you want to give us your graphic that you made for it? - Is it posted at a good stable place? - if you aren't ready I can also use the one that is the header for the TTT spoiler thread... It is a nice one too. We can save yours for when your site is back up and we dig a new hobbit hole...

What think you?

[Overtaxed]

Good Morning!

Here's some breakfast for Corin:

[2Jedismom]

Morning OT! Did you see our new dog?

Mornin' all...g'nad Threadkiller reporting for duty...

[Overtaxed]

Yes I did! She's a cute little puppy.
