Child of the 7th Age is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
Oh, no.... I am red in the face. I have absolutely no memory of creating that thread or posting on it. You'd think I'd remember something!

It's funny you should say this:

Perusing and sorting the membership list, and missing Birdland, and Gandalf_theGrey among others, it struck me that the posters had changed, and the Downs had changed....
The same thought has crossed my mind. The Downs is settling into a "post-movie" phase, which does not seem to be identical to what went before or what happened during the actual release of the movies. But I guess these are thoughts for the other thread.

**rattles clubhouse door & peers thru window**

**gives a quick shove; door opens in a puff of dust to reveal rows of rockers**

Eh... how is everyone?

**wipes several dusty windows with sleeve; lowers self gratefully into rocker with another puff of dust**

Whippersnapper? Whippersnapper? **brandishes cane**

Say goodbye to yer nap, ye auld codger. Why, when I was yer age--

**erupts into a wheezing fit of dust induced cough. More clouds puff into the air**

You could sweep this place once in a while.

**wheeze**

I've never snapped a whipper in my life - but they do require careful handling because of hteir fragile nature... Personally I would regard my self as far more of a:

flibbertigibbet \FLIB-ur-tee-jib-it\, noun:
A silly, flighty, or scatterbrained person, especially a pert young woman with such qualities.

Ealasaide has just left Hobbiton.
Howdy, howdy! Been away for awhile battling hurricanes and the like.

Welcome, Mithalwen! I don't think we've met.

Anything new happening with the codger set besides our usual sneezing, coughing, and cane-bashing?

**peers into carpetbag**

I might share my Beowulf comic book. Nice artwork. Font's too small, though.

**squints**
