Maybe I'm just an uneducated member but I don't get Tolkien's joke.
I'm an Aussie if that helps. :lol:

No really, someone please explain. :coffee:

Tokens get you on the subway. You buy a token and put it in the slot to get into the subway. :rolleyes: It's a stupid joke, I know.

Oh wait, sorry. Are you saying you don't understand the joke that Tolkien wrote?
Ah, well. He bought her underdrawers, panties, underwear. What could be more funny? :blush:

Oh, ok thanks. I just presumed 'drawers' meant the wooden things that slide into cupboards. I've got it now. Thanks
