Hey there gentle-folk!
Allow me to introduce myself! My name is Spiffy Buggins and I'm a hobbit from Michel Delving. Isn't the Shire just a wonderful place to be??! So much food and smoke, and music! Oh wonderful music! I just love to play my lute and make up little ditties! Oh, I also love to cook and grow things! Growing beautiful vegetables and berries truly is a passion only exceeded by my love to cook and then eat them! And if I may be so bold, pipeweed! It's almost as much a pleasure to grow as it is to smoke!
Oh goodness me, I'm rambling again. Yes yes, why I'm here! Songs! I want to write more songs! I've already sung so much of the virtues of cabbages, and now I need more material! I don't really want to leave the Shire, but there are so many people and places and adventures in the wide-world to sing about! If you don't mind gentle-folk, I'd like to accompany you and sing of your exploits! Hmmmm....
*retrieves his lute from where it was slung on his back and plays a chord to test the tune*
Oh no, that'll never do! *tweaks on the tuning pegs as he strums a little*
There we go!!
*sings*
Ohhhhhhhh, Pillagers of Pipeweed,
Follow where they lead!
Over mountain, field and stream,
Under daylight or moonbeam!
Foes there are to slay!
Pipeweed to smoke all day!
They've got hobbits, elves, dwarves and men!
Their adventures have no end!
Ohhhhhhhh, Pillagers of Pipeweed,
Follow where they lead!
From near to far, from there to here!
And for the dwarves they've got beer!
Pillagers!!
(As an aside, Spiffy is the name of my dog and our cat, Shelly is sometimes known as Shelbo Buggins, so Spiffy Buggins is an amalgamation of our family pets!))
