| The Sandyman family is trouble no matter what genereation it seems. I'm afraid Frodo has irritated Hodge to the point where something nasty may result. And poor Frodo-lad needs to find himself a girl of his own really quick, so he can be too busy to go running after his sisters (although in this case it was probably nice for Goldi to be rescued). Here I thought Faramir was going to get in trouble for seeking out Goldi, and it is Goldi who catches it for being seen with Faramir. Should have figured it, as Sam's family was certainly much more against the match than Pippin was: or perhaps we'll see Tolly's report and the other side of the coin in the next chapter. I'm also assuming a deliberate nod to Singe's Blindfold in the opening part of this story - am I right? I think it's wonderful when bits of other writers' worlds come into stories. We all read them all, and the best things ought to be shared. See you tomorrow! Author Reply: Have I mentioned lately how helpful your reviews are? Well, they are. As usual, you've hit the nail on the head, except for the last part. I haven't read Singe's Blindfold; the guessing game comes out of a childhood game, where you sneak up behind someone, put your hands over their eyes, and say in a silly voice, "Guess who!" and wait for the silly guesses to start. Children seem to love this game... Of course, it wasn't so nice when it was Hodge teasing Goldi... Look forward to seeing you on the morrow! | |
