Pio could you please post this in the save after the children's save spot, Dec 4 I think it was also. Sorry I havn't been on in quite some time I've been so bloody busy with school and family, that once I get on to post I only have enough time to read and catch up before I have to get off again, it's very frustrating.
Is it too late to take in one of the farm families from outside of Bree? I'm sure Poppy and Gaffer Goldworthy would be glad to take someone in.

Lily post:

Lily fidgeted in her desk, all this talk about the bandits made Lily uneasy; although, Poppy had told her not to worry and to be brave it would be over hopefully soon than they can go back to their peaceful lives. Lily hoped that it was true and that no one would get really badly hurt.

She put up her hand next after Fippi was done, 'yes Lily' Andreth smiled reassuring her it was ok to speak. 'Well..' she paused 'Poppy told me that they were coming she said I had the right to know, there are no secrets in her house' she stopped again and pulled one of her golden curls 'and she also told me not to be afraid that all of us big and little folk should stick together and we'll get through it'.

Some of the class had become encouraged while others were still slightly nervous, Little Lily included, she clutched her stone pendant tightly. If there was any more work to be done anywhere including dealing with the hedge Lily would be there, with Poppy of course, helping out by her side.

Lily added a final statement, 'I'll do anything I can, I'm not afraid to help!'.


Poppy's post:

Poppy busied herself about the hole, cleaning and doing some last baking and cooking for the day. The gaffer couldn't help but snicker as Poppy fluttered about the house like some butterfly or hummingbird.

She was doing all she could to keep her mind away from worrying about the bandits that were going to come. Poppy had hoped and wished so dearly that it wasn't so, that perhaps they had changed their minds, but she knew it was foolish to think that; they would come and everyone was doing what they could to prepare for it.

The young hobbit lass sighed taking a seat next to her gaffer and sipping on some peppermint tea. The family they had taken in was busy about the town seeing to supplies and what they could do to further help.

Poppy was glad everything seemed to be working out, although Bree looked as if it had become smaller with the sudden increase of people. Yes it was no doubt more crowded than it had ever been but that was something that needed to be done for the safety of everyone.

It this conflicts with anything let me know I'll be glad to fix it up.
