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.

Would it go well with my orange lights and green icicle lights?

Depends on where you decided to hang them.....

Hullo! I'm so thrilled that you're here!

I've set aside a separate table for the Dwarves with extra helpings of everything.

Now I don't feel so bad!

LOL I know and that's a cheapie. Their Sterling low D is $650...their standard Sterling soprano D is $350 (and my dream whistle.) They also sell a blackwood keyless flute for just under 1K.

This one on Ebay is a brass A running $56 right now, first day of sale...16 bidders. 6 days and 8 hours to go. Should be fun to watch. I was the second person to bid on it and I bid $10.55 this morning. ROFLOL!!

Ouch. Of course, $350 wouldn't buy you a decent fiddle, mando, guitar, etc...unless you got lucky!

And with your luck, all you have to do is hang around C&F a little longer, and someone will offer you one. ;-)

Is that your way of telling me you need a refill?

LOL...for some reason, I don't think anyone is going to offer me a Copeland. LOL

I do expect my kids and grandkids to get together and "get Grandma that Copeland whistle she's always wanted". Then I'll have something to pass on, if I have a musically inclined family member.
