Add me to the list, I suppose. Royal Oak or Traverse City, MI....depending on the weather, and whether I feel like shoveling snow; or, rather, more snow than I am currently shoveling. Did I mention there are only two seasons in Michigan: winter...and construction.

Looking at the first list, I was quite surprised to see that there used to be two other BDer's in Anchorage. I wonder what became of them. I think TheGreatElvenWarrior and I need to do some recruiting. Thanks for adding me by the way. ![]() By the way Brinniel, not to be bothersome but Laurinquë has a diaeresis above the 'e'. Very important. ![]() Last edited by Laurinquë; 01-12-2009 at 02:36 AM. Reason: 'ë' |

By the way, if Brinn doesn't want to update or do a new list, I'm tempted to do one myself.

Thank you. I was very confused there for a moment.

![]() Though I can't take credit for the Hookbill error; it got carried down from the earlier list. But all fixed now, with Morthoron added. ![]()

Wow...I had no idea there were so many Oregonians on the Downs, and the names I spotted actually surprised me. I'm still mum on my specific location, though I live between Gwathagor and Pio

Meh, this post doesn't really belong here, but I don't know where else to put it and I don't want to start a new thread since it isn't exactly Tolkien related...
I'm just curious to see if anyone would happen to be interested in recording a narration for a school project I'm starting on. I'm editing a travel log about Cotswolds and the voice-over I was given happens to be an American woman with a really annoying voice. If there's any way I can avoid using that voice-over, I'd love to since it sort of makes me cringe to hear it. The reason I'm posting on the BD (rather than try to find someone locally) is because I'd love to have a narrator from the UK if at all possible, although if someone who's not from the UK is interested, please say so. Anyone with a clear speaking voice and a mic that doesn't hiss will do. If you are interested, PM me. ![]()

Brinn--Not only the same state, but a similar area. I go to school in Salem, though when I'm home, I live a fair drive west of there.
I've actually been playing with the idea of maybe moving to Boston at some point after graduating from college in 2010. It has a great theater scene and I need to build my resume before I even think about moving to NYC. And I just like Boston. It's a cool city. ![]()

In light of the recent Alaskamoot and after looking back a bit on this thread, I was lead to wonder what happened to Quicksilve_sprite and Hirilaelin--both of Anchorage. Was anyone very familiar with them before they left? We need to convince them to come back.
Any advice? |

You can edit my location too and add the city Chania where I study now(just in case there is another greek around and wishes to contact me,although it seems quite impossible

Hey Erendis, just noticed Chania is on Crete and my parents will be spending their holidays there this year in Rethymno.
Wondering if you have any tips on what particular things are worth doing/seeing whilst being there. They would surely be interested in anything like historical sites/nice landscapes/traditional music or art etc. I mean, I guess most of the better known things are already presented in tourist guides, but perhaps you have some insight into more "hidden" things that a regular tourist wouldn't discover and that are worth it. Would very much appreciate your tips! ![]()

Ha! I know what you mean... I've tried multiple times to read the Lord of the Rings in Spanish or Catalan, but I always end up failing miserably...
Also, I've been living in Barcelona, Spain for the past two years. Sorry, Brinniel! And after all that hard work too. ![]() |

Abercrombie! Nice to see you drop by.
![]() I must say, I am most amused by the obvious change in location for Mac and Eomer. ![]() Oh, and a teeny weeny edit: symestreen should be written as symestreem. Great job with this, Brinn! ![]() |

I too find this fact very strange... only three people living in Germany...
Either all Germans leave to foreign countries (like Mac ![]() When I still was a member on the LotR Plaza there was quite a large German group there. Anyway, I am amazed to have just read that Estelyn lives in Lippstadt! ![]() Now we just need some more people from the region and we can organize a big B-d meeting! ![]()

Haha, yes, I started out studying abroad here and then I liked it so much that I never left!
Nice to see you too, Lhuna! I've been around, but I hardly ever have time to post. Real Life loves to get in the way of the most important things... we should do away with it. ![]() |
