Tom Bombadil

before the scouring?

Exactly 🙂

... would be interesting what would have happened if Gandalf had accompagnied the Hobbits instead of visiting Bombadil 😄

scouring would have ended quicker I would imagine,

it would have been great if the hobbits failed and Gandalf & Tom came to the shire like a team and kicked ass?

Discos - ......so its just me then 😮

Hmmm, I don't think that Tom Bombadil could go beyond the Old Forest.

shaber of course he can, he made several vistis to farmer faggot

oops I ment Maggot

He could leave
but

"...And now he is withdrawn into a little land, within bounds that he has set, though non can see them, waiting perhaps for a change of days, and he will not step beyond them."

good quote, was that not in the barrow-downs chapter?

anyways, I think it was just a bit outwith the old forest ya know, a diameter of Farmer maggots house till about the end of where he left the hobbits to carry forth there journey.......prancing pony seems a bit far?

Discos - is Tom constantly drunk?
