Hail, hobbits and friends! Here begins a chronicle of the Shire's unwritten but time-honoured customs—not laws so much as counsel, passed down from gaffer to lad, worn smooth by common use. Each rule, as we see it, grows from hard-won wisdom about keeping a hole-home (a trân, as we say) in good order, minding one's business, and above all, never missing second breakfast without cause. We shall set them down here in fellowship, one by one. Tea and disagreement both welcome—the Shire thrives on plainspoken talk. #MiddleEarthLaws #Shire
