Captain's Quick Report: A Yard Party with the Brandy Badgers

  
   A fine gathering tonight as always, was this day's weekly Yard Party at the Bird and Baby Inn, featuring the musical collective named the 'Brandy Badgers', as part of the organization known as the Grand Order of the Lost Mathom.  Though mixed with yule songs were some most interesting melodies that seemed more spring-like than winter, the audience and musicians put together an outstanding performance once again that had lively stepping and dancing, cheers and conversation amongst those honest Hobbit-folks, and quips and remarks between the band and crowd during songs throughout!

  To declare as always that these celebrations and gatherings are a success would be a sore understatement -- the Hobbits of the Shire and the folks whom join with them in good cheer at these events and parties bring together an atmosphere that speaks greatly of their joyful and merry culture. 

  Why as a matter of fact, Master Reader, if you happen to be a Hobbit living in the Shire, or happen to be travelling through the Shire-bounds for good reason, as of the time I write this -- here is a list of upcoming events seen in the current edition of the Bramblebury Gazette.  Perhaps they may be of interest to some of you!

  No doubt more warm tidings and gatherings will soon appear on notice boards across Middle-earth, as the weeks of Yule celebration itself are closer than ever.  With more musical performances, cooking contests, and many more events soon to happen, there is much to look forward to!  Remember to check your latest copy of the Bramblebury Gazette for any updates or additional information, as they are published, around those gatherings mentioned above!

Another outstanding event today, Miss Bilbeto and Miss Toadflax.  And a warm hand of berries for the ol' Brandy Badgers!

P.S.

  Word also has reached even as far as Bree, and perhaps further into Ered Luin, where Elves also known to reside, that an occasion of Elven tradition, and celebration fitting to this close with the season of Yule, will also be taking place in just but a few days.  A menu has even been rumoured to have been published of what food will be served.  The hosts are said to be those of the Elven kinship known as 'Vanimar'. 











Overview Collection

(( Disclaimer: Hello folks, I'd like to caution you that taking a look at the embedded slideshows coming up below will likely not go too well if your in a hurry, and hoping to just get a 'general gander' at what the event was like.  The 'Overview Collection' above is more suited for that!

  Viewing the albums embedded below is more geared for those folks looking to get a /slightly/ more play-by-play spirit of how things unfolded.  In fact, I only recommend having a browse through if for some reason, you have an urge to well... just look at a lot and lot of screenshots -- many of the shot angles/perspectives being repeated in other screenshots but at different times during the event, etc!  Thanks for reading. ))
