Oh I thought sea-longing then discounted it and I can't think why... I think I thought of it only in connection with Elvses... anyway nice to have a new chooser - I can certainly use a breather...

That's what I also thought, but then I decided that... why not Men as well? Like Aldarion...

When my turn comes around again, I won't choose anything that unexplainable.

Is it a person, Brooke?

I haven't read UT... but the Enc. of Arda helped...

There's something magical about any kind of water, not only the sea, even swamp water (although that's likely to be magical in a bad sense)

I should shut up now and not hyjack the thread.

Bath water is good - Rupert Brooke wrote of "the benison of hot water" but the best is a sig Rune had for a while which said that the cure for anything was salt water - sweat, tears, the sea.... okies hijack over. Though Gally dear you will soon overtake the Saucepan Man!
