Who's your favourite hobbit...

[the phantom]

Because the phantom is supposed to be on holiday until July 30th and so until this date has arrived all comments from him will be duly ignored.

During the first part of my trip I was in wilderness areas where I was lucky to see a person much less a computer. Now, I'm staying with relatives who have computers (though I rarely have the time to use them), so I just might make a post or two before the 30th- and I expect everyone to center threads around what I say just like they usually do.

If you let the Downs slip into mediocrity every time I leave for a bit it's really going to put a lot of pressure on me to be here all the time. You don't want to put that kind of pressure on your lovable neighborhood phantom, do you?
