well "Spocko" or "spockyman" has it, Durinsbane 2244 ...

were you answering the question btw or just messing around?

yes, lotesse, you don't see that many wraiths around Rivendell these days ... as CS said in the passing of the grey company LOTR discussion project ... after the nazgul heroically got rid of the ring from midddle earth they rather dropped out of things ...

well Done, Spock .... here's an unnnaturally fast Official "oky-doky" thingy ....

over to you ...

Easy one. If the Ring fails, then what will be no refuge?

You mean, all total, including the poor buggers who preceded Aragorn, the guys who never made it?

I don't think there were any Dunedain who went through before. From the appendices, we can deduce whose remains were found along the way.

I think it was 31 (or was it 32?). Halbarad's company was 30, then there was Aragorn, of course.

31 it was Val your go. I thought the Aragorn part may trip someone up but apparently not.

Yeah - I just didn't remember for sure if the ones from the north totalled 30 - or if it was Halbarad plus 30 others.

Sorry for my delay in getting back - had one pretty full week and minimal time here.

OK - a question:

How many miles was it from the Brandywine Bridge to Bag End?

easy ... between 1 and 1,000

...heh, you never asked for it exactly!

edit***

actually there were 32, halbarad had thirty with him, thus plus hal and Aragorn there were 32 ... but not to worry.

thus speaketh the current keeper of the tomes of the passing of the grey company

which incidentally trivvers, here gathered, is being discussed in the LOTR discussion project even as we play ... get your lazy butts over there and join in the discussion!

best all, BB
