There are times when one is glad that Tolkien changed some of the original wording...

1. The Company has a discussion about their next moves after they climb down from the Carrock, sitting in a little cave at the foot of the steps near the ford. After they finish the discussion, what is the next thing they all do? They open up their hamper and have a nice picnic lunch of cold mutton sandwiches. Don't ask where the Eagles got the bread and pickles. (They go skinny-dipping in the River. I wonder if Thorin remembered to bring his shampoo along?) 2. Name two kinds of animals that act as Beorn’s servants. He tried hedgehogs and rabbits, but the former had prickly personalities and the latter just gave him the runaround. So he settled on critters like dogs and sheep. 3. When Beorn returns from his excursion, as part of his explanation for what he’s been up to, he shows the Company two things that he’s just put outside his house. What are these two things? A sign advertising Warg-fur hats, complete with decorative tail, and the remains of their picnic lunch at Carrock - he's very fussy about littering! (An impaled orc head and a stretched warg skin, which would make a lovely coonskin-style hat, don't you think?) 4. While the Company journeys from Beorn’s house to the eaves of Mirkwood, what does Bilbo see at dusk prowling nearby (he sees this same thing again in the morning when the Company sets the ponies free to return to Beorn’s house)? Gollum. (A huge bear.) 5. What is Gandalf’s final bit of advice to the Company before he leaves them at the edge of Mirkwood? "Keep your peckers up!" (Seriously - this is in the original draft!) (What he really gave them turned out to be the worst advice possible: "Don't leave the path!")
