Just thought I'd better say "hello". Have read LOTR countless times (more than 20) and am now trying it in Dutch (and I'm not Dutch, in case you're wondering). I'm also extremely fond of "Leaf By Niggle" and "Smith of Wootton Major", but I have read all of JRRT's books, of course.

I'm a musician, amongst other things.

Welcome PrinceoftheHalflings! Is it alright if I call you Halfling Prince?

Anyhow, welcome to the Barrow Downs!

I can't see what good that brings, Groin. It's still about as long. I think sooner or later, some better nickname will come up, like PotH, or PoH, or even Winnie the PooH.

Anyway, once again welcome to the Downs, HP! (Harry Potter?!?) Enjoy your stay! (And Leaf by Niggle and the Smith are good, indeed )

Yay Kelly! Er...Nienna. This is going to take some getting used to...

And just in case you missed the memo, Fea, Lari, Brinn, and I are all absolutely ecstatic you finally registered. And to think, you weren't going to tell us. Shame on you.

Thanks for the welcome, everyone!

Yes, I was called PotH once ... somewhere else. In my youth in the West that is forgotten, perhaps.
