I was super-excited on every milestone, but when it got to over 500 I stopped paying attention to it, and I missed my 1000th post.

Bath water is good - Rupert Brooke wrote of "the benison of hot water" but the best is a sig Rune had for a while which said that the cure for anything was salt water - sweat, tears, the sea.... okies hijack over. Though Gally dear you will soon overtake the Saucepan Man!

LadyBrooke · 06-14-2011, 04:11 PM

Exactly.

Congrats!

She and Celeborn happen to be favorite characters of mine.

Galadriel55 · 06-14-2011, 04:23 PM

OK, well, I thought of making the "imperishable crystal" that Gimli wanted to set Galadriel's hair in the answer, but I promised something easy. Or, at least, easier.

Well, this one will be easy for sure!

Quote:

If the top of the map is north.

On a ME map, left is West.

LadyBrooke · 06-15-2011, 12:32 PM

Cool, I'm ready.

....I can find countries and fill them in on a blank map, but I couldn't tell you what direction they're in...if that makes sense.

Thanks for confirming that left is west on M-E maps.
