(why you little grinch!)
*the cute red sports car has been speeding along for some time; it's not more than a mile ot two behind the black car. over a hundred miles clear of the greyflood crossing and still with a lead on the elves, they approach the fork between the north south road and the andrath greenway. slams on the brakes, set to go left but thrown off by the signs.*
rhia, something's up. the map does say to go left, doesn't it? or my memory's off.

*Drives over the Tharbad bridge. She is still trying to adjust the seat*

No there isn't time we're too far behind to risk stopping. I'm sure it's Sarn Ford we're heading for. I remember planning the route when I was map reading.
*Heads that way as the sun is going down*

Yes we're heading for the Sarn Ford.
I remember now that that is the right way because the race ends in the Shire. Bree is the long route to the Shire.
*Puts the headlights on as the light is fading fast and they have woodland either side.*

*Drives along the road for some way.* This is my favourite time of day. When the sun has just gone down and the moon is rising. Look there's undomiel, the evenstar. *Glances at the first star, twinkling over the South Downs.* OH NO!  The South Downs! We've gone the wrong way!  Sorry Elf friends. But not to worry I'll take a short cut across the barrowdowns and we'll be back on track in no time. |

*Drives in silence, across the bumpy ground of the Barrowdowns. The headlights illuminate great stone moniliths atop several hills. A low lying mist seems to be creeping across the open grassland.*
Maybe I should have stayed on the road to Bree.

*watches the elves pass, then looks at the map.* okay, it's left. hang on, i don't want any other travelers confused... *leaps out of the car, twists the now dissoriented sign back the right way with much effort and grunting, then runs back to the car and speeds on down the north south road, thankful of her leather gloves. stifles a yawn and gets a jelly baby from the big bag rhia just opened. switches the headlights back on as they career on towards the brandywine.*

*Still fighting to get the map right without dropping the jelly babies or the cookies.* Uh, sorry. *Finally shoves the sweets under the seat.* Back online again...
