Dear hobbits of the Southfarthing and surrounding areas,

 

I humbly request a moment of your time. I am looking for a good location to build my Tavern close to the horse race-track. Though I found several locations that look promising, I cannot make up my mind which would be most suitable for my tavern. 

 

There is, you know, a slight problem. Though all hobbits like the idea of good food and a joyful place to spend their free hours, as you know, most of us don't like the idea of some of the big folk passing by our doors. And a few of those big folk expressed the intention to visit the Tavern to enjoy my dishes and special drinks. So I look for a place either where not many hobbits live or, if possible, a location where some hobbits settled who are used to deal with the big folk. Maybe some that used to trade with Bree or had other decent reasons to need contacts outside of the Shire.

 

I would be most grateful to the one who comes up with the best neighborhood to build my Tavern. To show my thanks, this hobbit I will invite with a  friend, as special guests to the opening of my Tavern. They will receive a night stay and two days of all 6 meals and drinks for free!

 

Please send me a letter if you can advice me, both on possible locations as on where the tavern will not be welcome.

 

With many thanks,

Rhinnie Cloverdusk has been missing for weeks and was last seen spending Green Dragon Friday in Bywater. It is most likely that she - as a feckless hobbit - has left to adventure and therefore can be found outside the Shire. 
If ye see her, you're allowed to drag her back to Oldfurlong without getting any sanctions.

All the information to either Halson Tubwort in the Plough and the Stars or Almonda Claybottle in Oldfurlong.

Have you seen this Hobbit?

((A quick sketch of a freckled young lad with slightly messy, short hair is drawn.))

Paladric Sandybanks of Oldfurlong, Southfarthing is missing. He was last seen around three weeks ago outside his Pleasant Street burrow. It was originally believed Mr Sandybanks went away to travel, but was expected back in just one week of his departure.

Anybody with any information is encouraged to contact their local Bounders.

Not a reunion exactly, but  a new beginning! Hobbit Heart's comeback neatly explains why so many bands and artists return: for the  love of music. Having spent a good few months playing alone and as a member of Little Clovers , Amorey  eventually discovered that her hobbit heart still beats strong .

When Amorey's son Peregrin died  it was a tragedy , but it did mean she got back on the road to rebuild her life  with the help of  music . And what a way to return. Every smile and every note is  greeted with cheers and tears and there'll be  many new finer performances in a very near future. 

With their amiable professionalism, total commitment and genuinely caring approach, it’s no wonder that Hobbit Heart  have earned a reputation as being one of the finest hobbit  bands in the Shire

Hobbit Heart, providing live music entertainment that will really get your event going, the hobbit way !
