The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

Mostly we've just done lonnnnnng e-mail messages. Once in awhile he's been able to get on a different computer to IM. But we've only really used IM a couple of times.

Course we've only been communicating for a month or so, and only more in-depth in the last couple weeks...so it's early days yet.

Umm...not really. You must have me confused with the backgammon gang. ;)

Just a friend. And I haven't determined his race yet...but I'm thinking just plain ol' human - maybe Gondorian.

THERE they are!!!

Its all a ruse...dwarves and their secret meetings in dark places, whilst feigning an innocuous game of backgammon (....backgammon?!?!)...are ACTUALLY plotting the next Elf-drawer raid...
