*Bump*
I think this thread has been forgotten!
As Evisse has given up the turn, it is Mariska or Samwise's turn. I think. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I haven't forgotten about this, I just find it very hard to come up with something. I will try to think about it today, and post a new one [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Oh, I can't come up with a decent one, anyone can go

OK, I'll do one.

The ghost of Sir Mungo Lip haunted a great many buildings in its time. Palaces, hotels, bars, MI5 headquarters... But his favourite by far was a place in Minsk, in Bar Klinski. The smoky atmosphere, the local gang of thugs, led by Denting Sam, a large, rather bulky character, appealed to Sir Mungo. At Leaf Brew's smell (Leaf Brew was the local beer) Mungo abandoned all his knightly dignity, and began to zoom round the small, dimly lit chamber and singing at the top of his ghoulish voice, "Whether you're here, far away, come to Bar Klinski , wahey! A piece of ham a day keeps the mad cows away! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!", and other such nonsense. In the end, when the bar began losing business, Andy Manfridski, the owner, was forced to show Sir Mungo the peeling, half broken off door.
There are seven words, not related (except for being in LotR), that I know of in there.
Enjoy! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

All-righty. I think I've got some:

Mungo Lip haunted- oliphaunt
atmosphere the local- Aredhel
Thugs- Thu
Denting- Ent
Chamber and- Beren

Those are all I could find... I think at least a few are right [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] .

I'm probably wrong, but I figured I would give it a shot:
Andy Manfridski: Aman
A piece of ham a day - Hama
Bar Klinski-Banakil

All the phonetic ones are wrong, because there are no "sounds like" words in there.

The only right answers so far are:
Oliphaunt, Goatleaf, Hama and Sandyman.
Three to go!

Sorry, LePetit, but this thread needs to be closed, as it's getting too long.

I'd be grateful if you would open a new thread with the rules for the game, your current question and the correct answers given so far, in order that the game may continue.

Thanks. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
