Frodo came up to Sam and surveyed the carnage.

“You've taken down more than I thought you would.”

Sam nodded and wiped his sweaty forehead with a handkerchief. “Hopefully that'll be an end to it.”

“I wouldn't be so sure. They'll be back.”

“Not for a long while.”

“You can't leave them here, they'll have to be removed.”

“I'll burn them – it's the best way to dispose of them.”

“You're a ruthless hobbit, Samwise Gamgee.”

“Soon as they threatened my chances in growing the biggest vegetables in the Shire, those weeds were doomed to die before they choked my cabbages.”

Ha ha, love it! Oh, a ruthless hobbit indeed! And I feel the same way about choking weeds that take SO much time and sweat to send packing.

Thank you! And it's always the spiky weeds that take over nothing nice and soft!
