As only the one town was named, I wasn't certain if both groups were very nearby or not.

As I see it - Arry please correct me if I'm wrong - we Bregowarians are aprroaching the river Anduin from the east, as we are "Outlanders", people living beyond the Great River. Bregoware is situated at the east side of the river, south to Wulfham, which is being situated at west side of the river. So the Wulfhamers have been riding south for a couple of days, and we Bregowarians to the west, south-west to reach the river. Now we come to the river, at a level that the Wulfhamers have passed a day before (or was it 1½ days?).

So after crossing the river, we are about one day behind the Wulfhamers - and should really be "compressing time" then.

But your question about crossing the river will be a pressing one, for there really won't be any ferry at the east side of the river! That's our problem to be solved, before we can meet the Wulfhamers at the west side of the river...
