"I can't be always carrying burglars on my back," said Dori "down tunnels and up trees! What do you think I am? A porter?"

The Hobbit, Chapter 6. It's when Bilbo, Gandalf and the dwarves are trying to take refuge up a tree from the Wargs, and Nori told Dori that he'd left Bilbo behind again.

Guinevere · 08-26-2010, 02:33 PM

Yes, that's the one, Faramir!

Denethor to your namesake Faramir

Folwren · 08-31-2010, 02:30 PM

I wanted to try to figure it out, but I didn't have any time to sit down and do it. Next puzzle, I guess, maybe I'll have a moment.

Faramir Jones · 08-31-2010, 03:31 PM

Quite right, Guinevere!

It's nice to know that I really made some people scratch their heads about that one!
