A most delightful read so far. I got a bit jumbled up trying to keep track of the wagers... but I certainly wasn't the only one it seems!
As far a preparing for the Hobbit basic training... has any of the Big Folk thought to consult the hobbits, or at least Bilbo, on what they already /do/ know. The skill of Tookish archers for example is well known and even if Pip is not trained that way himself surely Frodo and Bilbo would have something to say on the construction of the bows... how strong the draw should be for example. |
