So... no new quotes? :poke:

Okay, here's one:

"She had already nearly curdled me."

That was my guess, but I couldn't think of her first name. (I blame it on my cold.)

I figured out Lobelia but could not recall who was talking or where in the book.

I didn't remember where it was in the book either, but Frodo seemed like an obvious guess!

"Gollum! Well I'm blest! So that's how he sneaked past me is it?"

Isn't this where Gollum escapes from Mirkwood? So who was guarding him--Gandalf, Aragorn, or Legolas?

I'll guess...Legolas, but that sure doesn't sound like how Legolas would talk.

:scratch:

(Obviously, I need to reread the books!)

I know where in the books it happened, but I'm going to have to guess at exactly which character said it:

Balin?

A tricksy one indeed, precious, making us think that this quote's referring to Gollum when it's not. ;)

Pretty sure Jude's right...

Yep, Jude has it! Its is tricksy, isn't it? Its Balin describing how Bilbo sneaked past him on lookout. I thought we'd get through all of LotR before anyone figured out it was from The Hobbit! :)

Lobelia again! On taking ownership of Bag End (although not technically until the following day)

You're right again!

(I don't know why, but for some reason at the moment all I can think of are Lobelia quotes. I must be getting cantankerous in my middle age. I bet you can't wait to see what my old age will be like :Q )
