In which case I suppose one could farm them like bees.<br /><br />Scott - That's probably a trade secret :-)<br /><br />Ben - Hello and welcome! There are a couple of Rivendells and Lothloriens around, but fortunately not very near to Orc Farm. I wonder if it's a traditional name or if the owners had a sense of humour?Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11901028520813891575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19922276.post-44614880463079133042010-04-16T14:38:47.242+01:002010-04-16T14:38:47.242+01:00Excellent!
