*I mumble as I throw items into two leather bags..
* What am I forgettin'. I know there's something. There always is.
Let's see.
*I paw through the bag*
Nightshirts, clean breeches, clean shirts, lube, biscuits, some wine for the road, lube, apples, bread, cheese..... Hmm.. looks good

What fun! We haven't been on a trip for so long! Though walking to Tuckborough isn't likely to be much of an adventure. *hastens to add* For which I am MOST grateful!
*I look sadly at the mound of food, equipment and garments we have piled on a table*
Yes, I think we DO need the wagon.

Ohh, my stars! You're right.
*I sigh and shake my head... *
I'd better run up to 3 Bagshot and ask Froie for his wagon.
*I dash out the door... and walk quiclky down the road to 3 Bagshot, where my eldest son lives. Not hearing anything inside, I bang on the door.*
Froie!! Wake up, lad!

What the....
*Then I hear my father's voice and mutter...* Ohh stars and glory!! What does he.....
*I stumble from my bed and dash to open the door...*
POPPA! Stop bellowing! You'll wake half the Shire. I'm here.
*I stare, bleary eyed, at my father for a moment, then usher him in*
Come on in, Pop. What do you want?

Son, Mr. Frodo and I are takin' a walking trip to Tuckborough for the festival there. We need your wagon, son. We're taking a fair bit of stuff. You know how Mr. Frodo over-packs. *I roll my eyes*

*I walk outside with my father and help him pull the wagon out to the path*
There you go.
*I think for a moment*
Poppa, there's been talk of a warg about. What road are you taking? And.. how long do you plan to stay?

We're takin' the Green Hill Country Road, son. Should lead us right into Tuckborough Woods and then to the city. We should be back in a day or two....
*I think about the ale at the festival*
Maybe three...
*I see Froie frown*
And don't you worry yourself none about a warg. I've faced down worse than a warg and come out with my hide still intact.
*I begin to walk down the path, pulling the wagon*
We'll see you in a few days, son. Thanks for the wagon!
