Shire Queen Acorne taken ill and in care of the Healers

Last night the Brandy Badgers gathered in Michel Delving to have one of their open rehearsals, when Miss Gisoldica asked permission to speak and told everyone this sad news. A silence set in and there was crying and hobbits hugging one another for comfort. But then all agreed that Miss Acorne is not only a dear, sweet person, but an inspiration to us all and also not one to have us weep over her. We grouped together to cheer her on and to send her our best wishes and comfort. We have made some pictures of that, which you can see here.The badgers picked up their instruments again and dedicated the music they played to the Shire Queen. May all the energy emerging from the music and the dancing go straight to you, our dear Miss Acorne, to help you recuperate and get well soon. The evening became extra energetic when Master Simbo played the "Bywater Bounce" and all present hopped and jumped, all for you, Queen Acorne!
