This was my first build for the LOTRLug Hobbit collab. I realized I uploaded them all in reverse. This was the most fun one to build and I really was happy with the trolls
On the sandy part of the cove, there are more than 40 seals resting. The cove is a wonderful place for us to see and watch the seals so long as we are quiet as it is cut off from human access.
Two bigger girls before her chickened out. But this little cutie pie showed her true cowgirl spirit when she jumped on that ewe and tried to make it her own.
Bilbo is sent to investigate a mysterious glow in the woods. He finds three trolls.

Cattle lay in the lush pastures provided by the drained wetlands of Halvergate Marshes, overlooked by Mutton's Mill, a Grade II listed building built in 1830.
Mutton Glassy. Mutton stewed over a fatigued flame, in milk and milk solids, perfumed just subtly with aromatic spices, spiked with chillies. Sublime !!!
This was the outfit I was planning to wear this evening for my trip to my local pub.
As these pictures suggest, I actually felt kinda cute in my dress and wedges.
However, in taking one final look in the mirror before heading out of the front door, I was stuck by a crisis of confidence; a fear that I looked like mutton dressed as lamb (as we say here in Britain).
I was gutted. My confidence fell through the floor and I had to quickly change outfits yet I still wasn't happy with my look. However, with a table booked, I had to just run with it and accept that tonight was one of those nights where I just wouldn't feel special.
Built for my friends 6 year old son who participated in this years Mutton Bustin' event at a local small town rodeo.

Kebabs anyone? We often used this restaurant in Sandaoling’s fast diminishing Muslem Uyghur section for lunch. The guy cooking the kebabs had the warmest job in - or outside the establishment.
I wonder if it is still operating.

Once upon a time I used to get dressed in my car when I was going to go out. this is did for some time. I would rush from work to a supermarket car par and find a space as far as possible from any other car ( why do people always park next to the car parked on its own? Once parked up I would put my makeup on etc.
I did this the other week when I went out from work and the result wasn't great. last night I had use of a small room with poor lighting and thus I look like death slightly warmed up in a microwave that isn't working as it should .
So this was my girls night out look and yep I was the only one in a dress once again. My jacket went down well though people kept on stroking it! very odd.
So this is my mutton dressed as lamb look not sure I am dressing my age but I don't give a hoot as I was as happy as happy could be
"Three very large persons were sitting around a very large fire of beech-logs. They were roasting mutton on long spits of wood, and licking the gravy off their fingers. But they were trolls. Obviously trolls. Even Bilbo, in his sheltered life, could see that: from the great heavy faces of them, and their size and the shape of their legs, not to mention their language which was not drawing room fashion, at all. Then there was a gorgeous row. They began fighting like dogs, and calling one another all sorts of perfectly true and applicable names in very loud voices. Right in the middle of the fight, up comes Balin, the dwarf to inspect the commotion. Before he knew what was happening, a sack was over his head and he was down. The three trolls then hid and nabbed every other dwarf that made it into their camp. They fell to arguing once again, on how to eat them. Whether to boil the dwarves, or sit on em, or perhaps roast them with the mutton. As they argued, a fourth voice suddenly shouted 'Dawn take you all, and be stone to you!'. Following the mysterious voice, was the first ray of sunlight, poking over the horizon. The trolls, being caught open in the sun, turned to stone. 'Excellent!', Gandalf said as emerged from the bushes, where had had tricked the trolls into turning to stone."
My first entry for the CCC, depicting the first of Bilbo's adventures where he and the dwarves are caught by three troll bandits, and are saved by Gandalf's quick wit and impersonations.

"And with mutton at nearly a shilling a pound, it`s a real waste."
Well that`s what she used to say, although it was later changed to something about stirring the pot, ironing a shirt, and asking the public to check on the husbands Mother upstairs.
Part of one of the displays at the Saw Mill, later 'World of Timber' at Blackgang Chine, sadly an exhibit that has already started to be dismantled. It seems that most people are not interested in learning anything about days gone by.
