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.

The funny thing about the one I ended up with (Weatherbeeta) is that it fits her chest-to-tail just fine (she wears a 65") but when they made it shorter lengthwise, they didn't make it any shorter "height and breadth" wise. In other words, It hangs down to her knees and gathers way under her belly. I suppose it is providing a lot of warmth, but she does look a bit like she is wearing a dress! That's why Marl bought an industrial sewing machine and started making her own, since her ponies were so hard to fit. If you're ever in the market for horse coats, keep her in mind.

ROFL! Another hubba hubba in my opinion and, believe it or not, a TV show I used to watch in my childhood... The Flying Nun, it was on in the afternoons after school in about the 3rd grade or so.... What a blast from the past!

When her current coat is worn out should I FReepmail you then?
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
HA! I remember her too, from the re-re-re-re-re-runs.

Why not? Can I get an "AMEN" somebody?

I am literally laughing out loud over here!
Thank goodness the boss is out of town or he would have me committed.

In the real world, people get classified as ADD/ADHD, right? (Attention Deficit Disorder/Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder)
In the Hole, I propose we come up with our own designations.....
Mine would be (at least for now) HHHD/SHD (Happy Hobbit Hole Dweller/Slap Happy Dwarf).... successive backslashes would reveal more detailed information.... Feel free to improvise....
Have your boss come and commit me too.... what town is he in, anyway? *looking around furtively*
To: rightwingreligiousfanatic
Don't worry. He's in Puerto Rico and won't be back until Monday!

Gondorian Wing-Guard off duty.....ROFL!
To: HairOfTheDog
Ksen.... exactly how are we supposed to respond when we see a gondorian wearing this? I hope Aragorn won't have to wear one of those silly helmets. Clare reminded me that his crown does have some sort of wing design on it.
Maybe this is a Gondorian version of the "Swiss Guards" uniform; you know those poofy duds worn by the Vatican Guards. I hope this armor will only be worn during the coronation!

You and I both!
I am guessing this is a little number just for the chamber guards or something. It is a little too cumbersome for combat.
It would however make excellent camouflage for warfare at the city dump.

I hope this armor will only be worn during the coronation! I bet you're right. See the banner flying on the wall behind him? I'll bet that helmet is only worn with dress blues...
