Disclaimer: You know, it's really boring having to write these all the time. I realise that I could just come out and admit that this does not belong to me, but it doesn't really appeal to my literary sense. So instead, I have to waffle on about nothing very much. I mean, everybody here already knows that I'm not Tolkein, don't they?
Up for the chop today's episode is: Row row row your boat
By: God, who knows? I certainly don't.
Chapter 6:
Anyway the hobbits had tea with the elves and then left the next day on their journey to Buckland. Now that they had been warned by the elves of the Nazgul, Frodo finally believed that he could travel no longer by the road. So instead they took the scenic routet. By doing this they ended up in old Farmer Maggot's mushroom farm.
"Look Frodo, mushrooms!" Sam shouted, "They'd taste great with my famous cabbage soup."
Concealed in Sam's bags were the saucepans that Frodo had thrown out previously.
"Don't eat them, Sam, I still have the scars that Farmer Maggot's rabbits gave me when I last tried to steal his mushrooms
"Ay, that you have lad" said Farmer Maggot who was standing behind them holding freshly picked carrots and cabbages. Next to him were two growling bunnies and also Merriadoc Brandybuck (Otherwise know as Merry, the extension of Pippin who was added to this story to give a nice round number of Hobbits and also to keep Pippin company when Sam and Frodo buggered off).
"Well lucky for you m' lad ya ain't taken any o' m' mushrooms so I won' 'arm ya"
"Excuse me"
"'E says ya ain't taken no tut mushrooms Frodo s' ya is ok f' na'
"Well why didn't he just say that" asked Sam "Honestly these Bucklanders are queer Frodo look how they speak good thing we got Merry here to translate, no decent sense to speak normal like"
"Shut up Sam, you are here to carry me not talk. Mr. Maggot, can you tell us the quickest route to Bree?"
"Ay lad ya needs t' take Brandywine bridge 'tis just dun there thens ya 'as to got tru the ol' forest ands then yu' is gonna get tut bree in nought time at all.
"Merry?" asked Sam
"Brandy wine ferry"
So the four of them set off and quickly found a conveniently placed boat just in time before the Nine caught up with them. As usual the ring bearer, and therefore important hobbit, is the last to make it onto the ferry.
(Hobbits) Row, row row your boat
Gently down the Brandywine
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Life is just a dream
