This is Jeffrey piddle the Hobbit! An excerpt. Good morning, he said at last. We don't want any adventures here. Thank you. You might try over the hill or across the water by this. He meant that the conversation was at an end. What a lot of things you do use Good morning for, said Gandalf. Now you mean that you want to get rid of me and that it won't be good till I move off. No, not at all, not at all, my dear sir. Let me see. I don't think I know your name. Yes, yes, my dear sir, and I do know your name, Mr bilbo Baggins, and you do know my name, though you don't remember that I belong to it. I am Gandalf. And Gandalf means me to think that I should have lived to be good morning by Belladonna. Tooks Son, as if I was selling buttons at the door. Gandalf. Gandalf! Good gracious me! Not the wandering Wizard that gave old took a pair of magic diamond studs that fastened themselves, and never came undone until ordered. Not the fellow who used to tell such wonderful tales of parties about dragons and goblins and giants, and the rescue of Princesses, and the unexpected luck of Widow's Sons! Not the man that used to make such particularly excellent fireworks. I remember those old took used to have them on Midsummer's Eve splendid! They used to go up like great lilies and snapdragons and Lab Burns of fire and hang in the twilight all evening. You will notice already that Mr baggins was not quite so pro z as he liked to believe. Also, that he was very fond of flowers. Dear me! He went on. Not the Gandalf who was responsible for so many quiet lads and lasses going off into the blue for mad adventures. Anything from climbing trees to visiting elves, or sailing in ships, sailing to other shore's Bless me! Life used to be quite, I mean, you used to upset things badly in these parts. Once upon a time. I beg your pardon, but I had no idea you were still in business. Where else should I be? Said the Wizard. All the same. I am pleased to find you remember something good about me. You seem to remember my fireworks kindly, at any rate land. That is not without hope. Indeed, for your old grandfather took sake, and for the sake of poor belladonna, I will give you what you asked for.
