**Note to readers: Someone told me that there was too much chit-chat in this chapter, it borders on boring. But we need to spend just a bit of time in the frying pan before we plunge back into the fire..**

Then they were, most certainly, wrong.

I'm reading my way through whilst I have an afternoon off work, and am really enjoying the story so far - and there is absolutely not too much chit-chat in this chapter.

Author Reply: Oh, thank you! So glad to hear that.

I do enjoy chit-chat, but I know that some people find it tiresome. Glad to find a kindred spirit!

I like 'chit-chat'! *g* I went to see 'Mission Impossible 3' last year and came out of the cinema feeling physically assaulted. The plot had got totally lost in the non-stop action!

Author Reply: I haven't seen that movie, but I can certainly appreciate the sentiment! (Have seen a few movies that were more action than plot...)

Lovely, whether it is like Jane Austin or not ;-) It fits hobbits nicely.

As I recall it, my own chapter in which a grown-up Pippin meets a grown-up Diamond for the first time since the quest was also compared to Jane Austen, so it appears that the temptation to write in her style seems to come out when writing about the North-Tooks. Heh!

And Ruby has her eye on Merry? Poor lass, doomed, we know, to disappointment.

Author Reply: Hmmm. Perhaps Jane Austen came from that branch of the family?

Poor Ruby, indeed. *sigh*

Hope you made it safely home again.
