Unidentified 'they' (supposedly hobbits) to the Lonely Troll, friend of Perry-the-Winkle's:

That's the one, HI!
and I have a question to Englishspeaking people: what on earth is "cramsome" ???  (I couldn't find it in my dictionaries)(btw, the smiley is not meant "sarcastic", but "wondering"!)

Guinevere, I've read a lot in my life and have picked up a lot of vocabulary, but this word has never showed up anywhere else in my experience. We should perhaps ask someone who has access to the OED...

I always figured 'cramsome' to mean at the same time 'crispy' and 'doughy-fattening'. As far as my knowledge reaches, 'cram' is a term to indicate food for fattening domestic animals.
As for the next quote (thanks for poking, Esty  ), it goes perfectly with my current mood :Quote:

Now, just what mood could you be in, and which letter would be useful in finding that out? I'll have to guess and will resort to my customary "T".
