So here's a rousing song about them hobbits gathering before the battle of Greenfields. Oh, and many pictures from the field trip last Sunday too. Enjoy!
Follow me up to Greenfields
The song is best sung ter the tune of Follow me up to Carlow, here in a version by Paddy Reilly.
Gather 'round and hear me tale, of dangers in a northern dale The news may turn yer cold and pale, the goblins are encroaching Theft and plunder far and wide, packs of wolves run by their side Now it's time ter turn the tide, the goblins are approaching
Curse and swear, go up there, chase them goblins from their lair Put yer bags upon yer mare, find yer clubs and small shields No time now ter sit and brood, danger comes both vile and crude Bring yer weapons and yer food, follow me up to Greenfields
Gather in the northern camp, although the weather may be damp Settle down and light yer lamp, rest before the battle Yer will overcome yer fear, swing yer club and throw yer spear Fight for all that yer hold dear, goblin knees will rattle
Curse and swear, go up there, chase them goblins from their lair Put yer bags upon yer mare, find yer clubs and small shields No time now ter sit and brood, danger comes both vile and crude Bring yer weapons and yer food, follow me up to Greenfields

More about the Battle of Greenfields
Yer should have a look at the Bullroarer Took song lyrics and the stories from the battle. And yer should definitely read Simbo's three-part epic Bullroarer poem over on the Grand Order forums!
Pictures
First of all, miss Rowana has added many pictures from the trip over at the Grand Order forums.
