Welcome, all newcomers and returned ones!
Gandalf, the search function is a good way to look for answers to your questions - enjoy reading the threads that show up! Radagastly, welcome back and, when you have time, you might like to check out the Tolkien Coming of Age Club thread, where the 'oldtimers' who read Tolkien at least 18 years ago get together to share experiences and compare their old book editions - you really have something to brag about there with your first editions!

Well, I am new member of this interesting company. Since I am already member of a similar site in Serbia, where I live, I have a lot of experience with Tolkien geeks (as we named ourselves). We have gatherings quite often, and some of members became friends in real life. It will be fun to participate here, I am sure.
Let me tell you few facts about me. I am 34, architect, live in Belgrade; I read Tolkien since highschool, and I still find time to read his books again, not to mention Cristopher's work, which I find very helpfull and interesting too. I also like SF, as well as Douglas Adams and Terry Prachet. Fantasy books in general are good places to hide from everyday - life. Excuse me for eventual misspelling, since this is not my native language, and I don't use it frequently. |

hello!
I joined this site about a week ago, but this is my first post. I did, it seems, neglect to capitalize my username....oops!
I have been a Tolkien fan for 15 years now...not going to tell you how old I was then! |

Um, yeah, hey. I'm new and all that... still jetlagged, so if I appear slow, sorry.
I first read LoTR... ooh, when I was about 11-12, I think. Read the Hobbit when I was 9, found it all rather grooveh, but LoTR was my fave... TTT is still my favouritist book ever. When the FoTR movie came out, I didn't wnt to watch it, in fear that I wouldn't be able to read the books properly again, but in the end I did, and I'm glad I did. Superb. I have been a Legolas fan since I first read the books, so I naturally was sceptic about Orlando Bloom's portrayal, but he did very well, I was rather pleased. Plus, he's not too shabby in the looks department... So yeah... hey all! Legoli xx |
