Oh, I'm an idiot, I've posted on the wrong thread, and I've posted something utterly confusing on a barrowdowns thread... I do apologise  I think they were cousins, weren't they? |

I assure you, it is quite all right my dear sliverdream! I fear that is still incorrect though.  But don't be discouraged! Keep trying!!!!  |

"Mr Bilbo Baggins was generous with his money...he remained on visiting terms with his relatives (except, of course, the Sackville-Bagginses), and he had many devoted admirers among the hobbits of poor and unimportant families. But he had no close friends, until some of his younger cousins began to grow up. The eldest of these, and Bilbo's favourite, was young Frodo Baggins..." - "The Long Expected Party", The Fellowship of the Ring. |

Oh g-d, I'm blind... I am so very sorry I'm an idiot, who apparently can't read. EDIT: Ok, Balbo was Bilbo's great grandfather, and if he wasn't, through posting the wrong bleedin thing and not being able to read, this being both my first guess and my third by default, I will give up... |

Gah...
OK, a question...right, another concerning height: before Merry and Pippin, who was the tallest hobbit in hobbit-lore, and what was his nickname?

But don't be discouraged! Keep trying!!!!
