Today I'm happy about......

If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

Well I saw Sam and Frodo taking the One Ring to the Cracks of Doom in Mordor.
Gets my vote, LGM (although before they got to Mordor I think).
Definitely. Perhaps just after they've had the bust-up with Boromir but before they bump into Gollum.

Blimey, such imaginations. Hansel and Gretel ain't it ? :wink:
ps: It's also a really lovely photo of two kids. Love it.

Sam? Frodo? Boromir? Gollum? Tolkien I guess.

I read The Hobbit - There and Back Again many decades ago; so far back that I can't remember exactly when. Perhaps it was Tolkien's writing style or maybe my mood at the time but, either way, it didn't impress me and I've avoided his writings ever since.

It's OK, GG, the photograph is still lovely.

Thanks Bruce. (And his coat was from Mothercare so not expensive but i don't think they do adult men sizes... sorry...)

Have you thought about getting that enlarged and framed GG? It's a lifetimer.

Oh, leave 'em Gary. It's not cool to admit you like it as it was far too popular.

Anyway, Bolton only got mentioned because it was a palindrome of Ipswich.

Barry fecking Knight was to blame.

My Holidays start in 4 hours time (3 hours and 57 minutes to be exact... not that I'm counting or anything). Off down to Cornwall where the bells don't ring.
That's not a leopard!

Cheers. I'm taking some proper beer with me, just in case. (Although, to be honest, I'm expecting some good local stuff and will be highly shocked if it isn't legendary. St Austell's was grand even in the days of Big Brewerydom).
