OK then - is it a handkerchief? Like, say, the one Bilbo forgot to take along when he ran off with the Dwarves?

Pitch's guess is probably correct, but if not - a pouch of pipeweed?

...but no...

What do they have in their pocketses, my preciuosss???
 

Hmm. Some silver pennies or the like of them?

Getting further off now

I don't know then...

A pipe?

It is a pipe - but which? :cool:
