| Name | Bandobras 'Bullroarer' Took. |
| Strengths | Great height and organising skills. Total commitment. |
| Weaknesses | Adherence to tradition at every turn. |
| Dress code accuracy | Nine out of ten. Wears sunglasses that haven't been invented yet, and also has worn an inappropriateWimbledon hat. Recently though has fallen in line with the correct "bag" style hobbit hat which has improved his appearance to a new level. Also you will note from the pictures his colourful wasitcoat which he is immensely proud of. Others however find it reminiscent of pneumatic drill wielding hobbit hole builders. |
| Favourite HH beer | Thornbridge Jaipur IPA. |
| Alcohol tolerance | Nine out of ten. Suffers from belching (although he regards this as an asset) and occasionally gives in late at night.. |
| Female repelance | Excellent. Always tries hard. Sometimes weakens at the call of his missus. |
| Character toughness | Strong. Mentally will not weaken when pressed on tradition. |
| Magic skills | Powerful magic watch on chain. Also carries a replica (at least I think it is) of The one ring. |
| Bare footedness (hobbits only) | Quite good. Insists on it into establishments in the usual stubborn way. However, he usually wears immensely big boots. |
| Heroism | Superb. Led the battle of Greenfield against the invasion of roughyeds, then ran away to Sandbach. |
| Tobacco skills | Unbelievable. Can blow smoke shapes such as the CAMRA logo. |
| Summary | Bandobras is the tallest of hobbits (although Merry and Pippin are catching up after drinking some of the entwash). In the beginning when the world was young, before the precious came, he forgot he was a hobbit and took to wearing man clothes. But after the brief lapse, his commitment has grown immeasurably. Now, using some unnatural power, he controls all movements that shape the hobbit holidays. A barrage of messages (electronic ones) suddenly sweep the Shire as the nearing of our yearly event begins to unfold and manifold in his thoughts and persuasive wisdom. That time is once again fast approaching as the tenth year trip and celebration looms. He is one of the original four of Illuvatar's children who step foot in this world and witnessed the beauty he had created for us and forsook the soberness which so often restricts us in the appreciation of that beauty. We praise you Bandobras with great praise! Praise him! Praise him! |
