Thanks, Tolly! I mean, Envinyatar! Being a young hobbit, Al can probably sing, but I don't think he can actually play. But he can boast that he can, and then try to... iagine how that would go!

I'm going to post by tomorrow, and probably not join anybody yet.

Well Galadriel, having looked at Al's bio, the suggestion reminded me of my trip to Dublin when having time to kill before the function I was attending, I went around some of the sights with an American student who was staying at the same place. She was debating between the two career paths of professional singer and some businees project and after a few hours punctuated by unsolicited bouts of her singing at me I was boundless in enthusiasm for the business venture. "But I think I have a gift for singing" she said oblivious of the fact that she sounded like she was strangling a cat.
It may not have entirely been her fault that the rest of the weekend with my friends was blighted by a migraine...

But to get back to the point it would work well if you talk to Tolly first since Annie will be ready for a nap after her toast but I am sure Al will have a chance to enlighten Elin as to the ways of the Shire very soon ..

All right, I'll send Al to Tolly. For now he just accidentally created some physical mess at his own table. I'll move him over to Tolly after he cleans up.

I've just give Al a reason to go to the bar where Tolly is. Hope it's ok with you!

Aw, thanks!

I'll make Al clean up first though (he wants to make a good *cough* impression on Elin and Annie)

By the way, I edited my last post because I just realised that it had drastic spelling mistakes (That turned "his vast was now splattered with beer" into "his vast was not splattered with beer".

)!

Okies.. I must admit I got a bit intrigued about his fancy vest until I remembered it was a weskit...

Edit.
Oh dear I have made them seem a bit mean to him. They will be nice when they meet , promise... or I could edit. But I find a beer spattered hobbit too inherently funny. Though it is a sad waste of beer. Also I wrote the first hald yesterday and was too sleepy to finish, then had to adapt to the intervening posts.. can't turn your back for a moment now.

Don't worry about it. I had a good laugh myself when I wrote the post, and even more when I read what Elin thought of him!

He's such an adorable little jerk, isn't he?
