Scrambled Eggs



Day1   Oatbarton

The morning started lovely, With birds singing.. And a bright sun to wake me. Well That was before I knew,I would be into Some Scrambled Eggs.

My old gaffer was not found of me this very morning. I hid Matti, my pet Shrew.

He calls them monsterous pest, a Oatroot Bane..

but such little critter can not be a monster, could it.

My gaffer and I have a different view on things as long as I remember. He wants me to take over the family farm, when I come of age.

I myself are more into exploring, and pipe weed lore... Perhaps I should leave Oatbarton and start a Farm in the Southfarthing,..

On this day I made up my mind, don't get me wrong I love my gaffer and family... But staying here would not make me happy. Perhaps my gaffer would get proud of me when he sees That I can be a good farmer, and a Tender for my wares.

After second breakfast I go on with my plans.. Packed my things and mounted Clover our  family Pony.

 Barnywise my gaffer.. Helped me.

You see he is not so bad At all, he always Said to follow your dream., although he did not Say much to me.

I could see in His eyes he was sad..

While I was too, but I can not stay..

And so does Matti. my pet was in my trousers nibbling soft on my inner pocket. 

"Lad, your sure to go on with this' .. I was and we shake hands and Said our farewells.

"You can always come back hand lend me a hand ya know' 

"Good bye I Said.. And I lead Clover.. South.. To the Southfarthing of the Shire.
