I believe that it was said by Gandalf to Saruman.

Why, they even took Pimple's old ma, that Lobelia, and he was fond of her, if no one else was.

The Saucepan Man 06-26-2003 08:46 PM

Indeed. That's the one, Beren. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Orofaniel 07-08-2003 04:02 PM

Since it's been ten days, I'll think I'll just post a new quote to keep the thread going. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sort out the letters, so it is a proper quote. Then please find out who said it to whom!

Good luck!! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

It seems that we shall need him still.
I'm not sure on who said it to whom, but could it have been Gandalf to Frodo? or perhaps Frodo to Sam?

ElenCala Isil 08-06-2003 10:15 PM

I have been away for quite some time and was stressing a bit about this thread, but as I'm still the last post, and I'd like to quench my curiousity and see if I was correct or not, I'll just give this thread a bump. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Orofaniel 09-25-2003 01:24 PM

Wooops, I've totally forgotten about this thread!! I'm so sorry!! [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

The quote is correct, and I think it was Gandalf who said it. I'm not sure who he said it too, though...(I've lost the page!)

Please Proceed!! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

ElenCala Isil 09-25-2003 07:27 PM

That's alright..

This might be fairly easy... although a bit long..

neither the ring nor me!

You may proceed.

Eowyn, in response to Theoden, as he is preparing to leave Edoras for Helm's Deep. (TTT:King of the Golden Hall) (Her eyes went to Aragorn as she spoke, however!)

Cheers,

Arwen1858 09-25-2003 10:15 PM

I hope, that if I do go to sleep in this bed-loft, that I shan't fall off.

Pippen, FOTR, chapter Lothlorien when they were on the flet up in the tree

A bit long, but I don't think that one will be too hard! Have fun!

Arwen_Evenstar 09-27-2003 04:49 AM

'Where have you been my friend? Why weren't ou at the feast? The lady Arwen was there.'

Was that Bilbo to Aragorn?

Arwen1858 10-02-2003 03:38 PM

Yes, that's it, Arwen_Evenstar! Sorry, I forgot this was the one I posted in! You have the floor!

I hope no one minds me joining in.
Heres the answer

"Things unforseen may hinder us, and if our host is strung out, it will be long ere it can be in order when we issue from the hills."

I think Eomer said this to Ghan Buri Ghan

SR? I'd rather be called Sleepy.
Anyways next question

He opened an eye and tried gallantly to smile. Who's this young giant with the loud voice? He whispered.

I think it's Merry to Pippin, or Pippin to Merry or something...someone to Merry or Pippin

miellien 10-07-2003 12:02 AM

Bilbo to Pippin, when they return to Rivendell.

Sleepy Ranger 10-07-2003 03:39 AM

The sentence is correct.
But wrong person.

Hint: Someone to Pippin

Beth the Elf 10-07-2003 01:37 PM

Frodo to Pippin?

Sleepy Ranger 10-07-2003 01:41 PM

Nope wasn't Frodo

Hint: Think food..... Not part of the fellowship.

Salix 10-07-2003 04:03 PM

That was Fredregar Bolger (Fatty no longer) talking to Pippin right after getting pulled out of the Lockholes.

Beth the Elf 10-07-2003 04:07 PM

Fatty Bolger to Pippin [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sleepy Ranger 10-08-2003 02:30 AM

Salix gets it.
Next question please.

There you go.

Beth the Elf 10-09-2003 06:12 PM

hm...i have the letters all sorted out, but i'm having trouble putting the words in order. a hint please?

Salix 10-09-2003 07:48 PM

I didn't mix up the words. I didn't think I was supposed to. Anyway yes you may have a hint. It's from ROTK.

The answer:
Quote:

Yet ancient legend, now seldom spoken, has somewhat to report.
Was it Theoden to Eomer
or
Theoden to Eowyn
I couldn't really make out
