| LOL! Those letters are great! I'd very much like to quote everything - but that would be boring ;-) So, I've picked something out, as example: Hobbits isn't the only folk what lives under the ground. Dwarves do as well, only their smials are a deal larger than Shire-folks'. A deal larger? Haha! Your Sam is wonderful! ... and Mr. Frodo wants looking after, no doubt about it Well, that's how Sam puts it. I think, Mr. Frodo would have much more liked to sneak away ;-) Don't forget to mention the incident with Gollum and the taters: "You wouldn't believe it, Dad, but that sneaky Gollum creature doesn't know what taters are!" I'm looking forward to reading more. Author Reply: Ah, how I love it when you pick out examples! (I'm even trying to do that when I leave reviews, and it's harder than I thought!) Ooo, good suggestion, Gollum and the taters... (making mental note) | |

| Bravo!! MEWD, Lindelea!! These are so casual . . . and yet, there is a tension to them as well. Wonderfully written :) Author Reply: Thank you, you caught that! Sam doesn't want to worry his old dad, after all. | |

| Samwise Gamgee, Master of Understatement! LOL! This is funny--I love the way he skirts around the "bad parts". Author Reply: Thanks! He's got a way with words, he does. | |

| Master Peregrin Took wants a good deal of looking after, I'm afraid. Do you know how you taught me never to chuck things down a well? Seems as if he don't have enough sense to stuff a turnip. *giggles* I do love these matter-of-fact letters! Author Reply: Thanks! (He and Frodo want a great deal of looking after!) | |

| "some shady characters who stole the shirts off our backs." Wonderful. "Cannot tell you where we are going but it is someplace with elves." And that is all he needs to know! Author Reply: LOL, that's right, and probably would be more meaningful than mentioning "Rivendell". Thanks for stopping by! | |

| LOL!! I laughed so hard when Sam kept calling Aragorn "Grubby." Thanks for giving me a laugh. ^^ Author Reply: You're (belatedly) welcome! | |

| Heh-heh. Clever and very uh...Sammy like. Here's my favorite quote- "Seems clear to me they don’t have the sense to sew their valuables into their underwear as they ought." I don't supose the Gaffer ever got these letters, did he? Author Reply: Hmm. I don't know. Perhaps Sam posted them after the Battle of Bywater. | |

| ROTFLOL! I especially loved the "afctnatly". Author Reply: Funny thing is I have seen that spelling in old letters... as if the people got to the end and were just too tired of writing to put all the letters in... or something. | |

| How funny! "Grubby is travelling partway with us." A perfect start into a new day (or rather... afternoon) Author Reply: Thank you! Always glad to be of assistance. | |

| I can see Sam writing these! It's perfect and I think this story will turn out to be quite a bit of fun. Can't wait for more. Author Reply: Why, thank you! Appreciate the encouragement. I'm hoping more will come to me over the weekend. | |
