LOL, you say you’ll think about it overnight and then post a new one 7 mins later. You must be quite the power napper!
Answer: Buckland Gate.
Looks like this is a 2-person game currently. Oh well, I’m happy to continue.
New Anagram: foremother the dot
Well I can make "the teeth of Mordor" out of that lot, haven't got the books to hand, is that the the towers guarding the pass into Mordor?
You've got it! The watchtowers were named Carchost and Narchost and were collectively referred to as the Teeth of Mordor.
Here's a new one: Bomb Littler
Bill, Tom, BertQuote:

Your puzzle was very deep into the lore, so that was quite a helpful hint! Fastitocalon is the answer, a fabled sea monster.
OK next one:
Friction proof anagram ad
Faramir captain of Gondor
Once I realised there were so many A's in there I immediately thought of Faramir for some reason :)
Well done. You seem to solve most of mine with ease! The floor is yours...Quote:

LOL, I don’t think girl’s like them to be called lumps, but a very funny anagram. Answer: Flourdumpling, the nickname of Will Whitfoot.Quote:

Hmm, 2 weeks and no guesses. Dead thread? I'll try a hint before we call it dead:
Anagram: Thunder heads islet
Hint: this is a character (ie not a place or thing)
I'm stumped, I have made words like shade, silent, three, and possibly thranduil (but may have spelled the name wrong I never remember how it's spelled) but can't think of anything! :(Quote:

The answer would be Earendil the Mariner.
Next one: Drooling Ring Oil
Hm, can we get a hint on this one as well? :)
