Since it's been ten days, I'll think I'll just post a new quote to keep the thread going. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sort out the letters, so it is a proper quote. Then please find out who said it to whom!

Good luck!! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I'm not sure on who said it to whom, but could it have been Gandalf to Frodo? or perhaps Frodo to Sam?

ElenCala Isil · 08-06-2003, 10:15 PM

I have been away for quite some time and was stressing a bit about this thread, but as I'm still the last post, and I'd like to quench my curiousity and see if I was correct or not, I'll just give this thread a bump. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Wooops, I've totally forgotten about this thread!! I'm so sorry!! [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

The quote is correct, and I think it was Gandalf who said it. I'm not sure who he said it too, though...(I've lost the page!)

Please Proceed!! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

ElenCala Isil · 09-25-2003, 07:27 PM

That's alright..

This might be fairly easy... although a bit long..

He opened an eye and tried gallantly to smile. Who's this young giant with the loud voice? He whispered.

I think it's Merry to Pippin, or Pippin to Merry or something...someone to Merry or Pippin

miellien · 10-07-2003, 12:02 AM

Bilbo to Pippin, when they return to Rivendell.

Sleepy Ranger · 10-07-2003, 03:39 AM

The sentence is correct.
But wrong person.

Hint: Someone to Pippin

Beth the Elf · 10-07-2003, 01:37 PM

Frodo to Pippin?

Sleepy Ranger · 10-07-2003, 01:41 PM

Nope wasn't Frodo

Hint: Think food..... Not part of the fellowship.

That was Fredregar Bolger (Fatty no longer) talking to Pippin right after getting pulled out of the Lockholes.
