Many Mithril Pages @ Faerylands

Rhuooommm .... He's finished, meseems ..... huoommm ... a spear he's holding with his right arm .... huooommmrhuomm ... I'm sure about this .... hom ...

Huuoommm ... there's no need to contemplate on fiction or rather questioning rumours ... though some of them might turn out to be facts .... rhuuoommm ... sometimes ... huoomm.
Well, Master Barliman, I have to admit that I supplied you with those pictures from the Company ... rhuoommm ... not from the horse's mouth ... huoomm, so to say ... but a bit hasty I was doing that, wasn't I ? .... nevertheless two drips of that honey-coloured-liquid will do nicely ... rhuoommm ... drips or drams ... that is the question ... huoommmmrhuoommmtom.

I think it's a fine idea. Master Tree, so long as it doesn't tax the old brain cells too much. I've got few enough of them as it is, and they're getting very tired (read: "worn out").

It looks very much like we're going to get a Tom Troll to go with Dick, so I expect "someone" (and we all know who I mean, don't we Dave?) will suggest Harry next month (sorry, I'm slipping into Bree dialect - I don't mean Tom, Dick and Harry, I mean Tom, Bert and William).

Rhoouuummm ... so, a last bowl, please, Master Barliman. rhuoommm .. aye, the one from the honey-coloured liquid, please ....  huooommmm ... huuu°ummm .. ahhhh ...
So I'll go ... as things have turned or being misunderstood ... rhuoommm ... keep on, please.

Ah, I think someone else should (re)suggest Bert (Gildor) Barli as there are enough honours to spread spread out amongst the GF, I won with William and have suggested Tom before, so to be fair Gildor suggested Bert and he may be in with a fighting chance to tie up this 'Trilogy of Trolls' once and for all, but with a word of caution not to be tooo hasty as some folk do appear a bit weary of these dim creatures having achieved some success

Anyhow, I have an idea already planned, lol, it may get disqualified, but we'll see.

You're message still isn't penetrating my scrumpy-addled noggin, Master Tree. Dismissed? Go? What do all these words of departure indicate? Can't see what you mean about a 'missing verb' either. A missing Nob, certainly, but then he's always missing even when he's here.

On the subject of Tom, Dick and Harry, I rather like the version available from Thomarillion, and it's true what Master Daines says about 'troll-exhaustion' - three in so few months would be a little - well...boring. It's true what they say about variety being the spice of life. But if it's what people want, it's what they'll get.

As you should. It was a great idea.

Huooommm ... some serious matters kept me busy afar from Bree, Master Barliman .... but ..rhuoommm ... in between I found the time contemplating Mithril-matters ... hom ...
I would rather like to cancel my Christmas riddle .... rhuuooommm...hom ... it turned out to be too difficult .... rhuoommm ... the last one's wasn't easy, was it. .... then there's the problem of having a prize for it .... rhuuoommm ... just to top the M16 ... rhuoommm ...
I dunno what to do .... rhuoomm ...
Just give me some of that honey-coloured liquid please ... rhuoommm ... of course I can pay in coiny things ..... rhuoomm ... alas, as I cannot pass them directly would you mind to mark this on one of your tabs ... rhuoommm ... one of the tabs I said ... mustn't necessarily the one that reads Theobald ... .... rhuooommmm .... hom.

Huuooommmmm .... you're the wisest of all innkeepers I know, Master Barliman .....huoommm. But poor Master Dave might have spent most of his coiny things for bribing all those trolls ... huoommm ... if that hadn't been the case Tarannon Falastur would have made it ... huoom .... anyway, let's have a toast on good old Master Dave .... hom

Rhuuooommmm ... mind the Man in the Dark, Master Ddaines, as he's here too .... huoommm....
what is 2/3rds, by the way? .... huoommm ... alas, I was a bit busy putting a new picture in that Delving place .... huoommm ... I wonder what the three of you think of it ... huom ... though I don't want to confuse neither the barkeep nor the skilled artisan ... hom ... if you understand, what I mean ...

Huoommm .... sorry ... it's me tree again .... rhuoomm ... as I have just reconsidered me thoughts about that Christmas riddle I would like to ask if anybody would be interested in such a thing again .... huooomm ... unfortunately there are not many beings around here for quite some time ... hom ... on the other hand I remember that the riddle in the dark was just between two beings involved ... rhuoommm ...
Then there's the fact that words arrived here last year that it wasn't wise at all not to mind the fact that while I'm talking others are sleeping .... huoommm ... could also have been the other way round ... hom ... must have to do with that different perception of time, methinks .... huoomm ... anyway, as I would like to avoid such comments being offered furtheron I just had too choose a much more difficult riddle this time ... hom ....
please be honest in telling me if I should keep on with that idea or might better delete it ... huoomm ... though it has started already ... rhuoomm
Well, Master Barliman, I do not intend to pester your nice place here with riddlely things ... huoommm ... I will find a place elsewhere to keep record on that matter ... huoomm ... yes, immediately .... in a hurry ... so to say ... hom ...

huoommm ... right you are, Master Barliman ... rhuoommm ... so I will perish mine thoughts as soon as I can ... hommm ... but it might take some time as I cannot haste everything, you know ... hommmmm
