*LotR Christmas presents - PLEASE POST HERE!* - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I'm not sure if we can advertise (and I don't work for them) - but if anyone wnats a late christmas prezzie and they haven't got it, then woolworths (in enlgand) are selling the ROTK extended edition for £3.99. Bargain!

Almost bought one (even though I've got it) cos my 8 year old keeps nicking my copy to watch on his dvd player!

PS - I got nothing LOTR related, but my boy got a load of Games Workshop figures (inlcuding the Mumakil at £50 for a bit of plastic!

) that I'm having to put together and paint for him...........

A few of my suitemates were thoughtful enough to give me a collector's edition card of Aragorn, as well as a copy of Unfinished Tales. I was quite excited- especially about the latter.

I got:
Two books from the HoME
One poster (I have 5 that I am not using already)
and just before christmas my mom had been in Germany and brought me a small 2007-lotr calender

Well technicly I didn't get it for Christmas because I don't get presents at all for Christmas

But for a Dutch very simulair thing called Sinterklaas (click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas for more information)

I got Unfinished Tales, including a Tolkien quiz book (with over 1000 questions

) and The History Of Middle Earth volumes 1, 2 and 3, so that means The Book Of Lost Tales pt. 1 and pt. 2 and The Lays Of Beleriand.

Found myself with a copy of the Silmarillon, and the 'best of the Brothers Hildebrandt' calendar for '07 - January is Goldberry. And I still have to work through the HoME books I got last year, too!

Ha ha!

Those Hildebrandt bros are something....do you like it? (the calendar?) I'd like to see a Mucha http://www.bpib.com/illustrat/mucha.htm Goldberry......but he's long dead....so maybe I should attempt it. This whole calendar thing has me so bugged, I am half tempted to make my own......
