... oh, wait.
2. BUDGEFORD, where you budge your Ford Fiesta (after, presumably, it gets stuck in the ford). It's close to the Brandywine Bridge.
4. SCARY is over in the Eastfarthing.
5. LONGBOTTOM is where you long for something at the bottom.
1. (jumping back) could be WHITFURROWS, as in 'not a whit' and furrowed brows.
And 6. must be PINCUP, a trophy for tacks.
And a bit of poking around reveals that the password might be I DRANN, 'the Shire' in Sindarin.

PS: If these are all right... sorry. :-/ 'Hardbottle' got me onto Shire places, 'Scary' fixed me there, and there aren't all that many of them to go around. ~hS

A whole password in a single post. This... wow. This must be a record.
Are you looking for the "liquid courage" phrase for the stuff in the bottle?
