On another matter entirely, I’ve just received my Bombur and Radagast figures. Both of them are very fine indeed (though the casting of Bombur is perhaps not quite as good as one might hope in a figure of this price – the mould lines are very obvious indeed). More importantly, I’m glad to see that the grey undercoat is back to the quality that it always used to be. No more porridge! Hurrah!

Any other interpretation is certainly misguided by a completely indecent amount of creative imagination. But who knows …

I’m sure I don’t know what you mean, Master Proto. I was thinking of those lumps in the road outside the Pony. What were you thinking of?

Certainly, yes, yes. I was only thinking he referred to ale “Under my Thumb” — lyrically for guarding his Humpen against thirsty bystanders.

I always knew, that Master Proto is an intelligent member . . .
The interpretation of “hump” was very right indeed . . .

PS: nice Wiki-link, by the way . . .

No, no … even if there had been some, there’s no intelgrrigence left after drrrinking here for so long — this Humpen in my head is empty. What a wonderful world!

[Yes, Master Gildor below is certainly correct, pardon us!]

gentlemen don’t you think such merry conversations would fit better in the Prancing Pony?

Yesterday I saw that the PM1 is offered on Ebay by someone calling himself “saseit” (from Austria). For that offer he undoubtedly used the picture of the PM1 I took and provided Gildor for his database here. I will always recognize pictures I took as for certain details (background).
Well, I just want to let you know that it’s not me selling my MP1 … 😡

Master Ent, did you move to Austria? 😆
I thought you live in Good Cold Germany!

Move? … me? … tree? … no.
I still keep on living very close to that ‘Teutoburger Wald’ …

Were you there when the Romans misplaced one of their legions? It would be interesting to hear a tree’s-eye view of the event.

Probably they were SaRomans legions, and Master Tree did participate in that event …

Huuoommm …. Master Barliman, them Romans did not misplace armies very often … huomm … those three (not one) legions, lead by Quintilius Varus, were just trying to return to safer winter quarters near the Rhine area in the west … they chose to take a dangerous route (or even were cheated to do so) … anyway, three legions vanished in some foresty area and that meant a severe loss to the plans of a man called Augustus, living somewhere southwards from here … though I don’t know many details as the desaster took place far north and west of the Teutoburger Forest … so I was not an eye-witness … but just to point out: there were no trees being involved in those three-days battles … that’s what I know of for sure … huoommm
