| Well, thanks, Jay. I believe you've got it right. I can't see Elrond taking off those elegant robes and getting down and dirty with Sam somehow. Watching in a friendly way and chatting I can see. Author Reply: Thanks, Kalima - this drabble had two purposes. One was to be a regular Elrond and Sam moment (I can't see Elrond hot and sweaty either!), the other was to play with the significance of the date. | |

| Very clever! It's a lovely - and very believable - moment between Elrond and Sam, of course, but it's all the references to political parties that made me laugh. “A ’tory, Uncle! A ’tory!” LOL. Good job! :-) Author Reply: I had great fun with this one, but wanted it to work as an Elrond and Sam drabble as well, for those who didn't get the references. I was wondering how on earth I could get Conservative/Tory in there at first. Glad you enjoyed this. | |

| Well, you know I love your drabbles, Jay! Great job, once again. =) Author Reply: Thanks! This one's a bit tongue-in-cheek, to get the relevant words in. | |

| “My old Da were a terror on weeds and such – but I prefer a more liberal approach. Even weeds have their place, I reckon.” That is so...Samwise. I love it! ~TF Author Reply: Thanks! It's difficult for me to get Hobbits right, I think - I'm an elf girl. I'm glad you think this sounded right for Sam. (I just needed to shoehorn the word 'liberal' in somehow!) | |

| Of course Elrond must have visited the Shire. I am perfectly willing to believe that. And I like the image of he and Sam speaking while Sam gardens. I am really coming to appreciate, even love drabbles the more I read them. Good job. Author Reply: I do like writing drabbles - they're quick and easy, but there's a real challenge in getting that 100 word count! This is set TA 3020, the Shire's 'Great Year Of Plenty' - and yes, I can see Elrond and Sam talking about gardening. Thanks for the review! | |

| Veritas? Although really I think Author Reply: I just stuck with the main ones, but the greens did fit nicely. No more suggestions, please! | |

| Clever. The Greens would fit in neatly, but I'll bet you'd have problems with the Monster Raving Loonies. Author Reply: Whoops! I forgot the Greens - an edit is called for. I gave up on UKIP, too! Author Reply: Edited to include the Greens ;-) | |
