Well I am trying to do other stuff as well more but yes it hasn't lost its hold on me yet. Still feel like a newcomer compared to Eomer and co though and miss the people who were around then but not now or not so much... HI, Fordim, Child... It took me ages to actually post (certainly other than in the quiz room) so daunted was I. I still haven't plucked up the courage to read canonicity let alone comment!

It feels somehow wrong to say this, Mith, but you SPM, Lal and davem are still all n00bs to me.

While to me, Eomer, both you and Mith are venerable ancient members Shows one great feature of this site, we have virtually generations and generations of 'Downers who are still present even when the new people come...

Happy deathday (belated) to both of you!

Actually it feels right to me... Even though there are so many who came after, I still feel an aftercomer... not of the first born. Even though some people *glares* seem to think we should be handed over to the National Trust. Ancient.. how rude! I'm still a teen ager in elf years... And Eomer is only in his tweens...

Eomer, don't you think it's c00l when someone posts who has an even earlier deathday than you, but a really low post number?
It's like Ordodreth or Amarie or some such...a really cool but fairly obscure elf making an appearance...

Happy death day to those who have been in the barrow far longer than I! My own death day was back in January (it's only a couple of years, so the body is relatively fresh). Today, though, I feel like the unquiet grave, as Montezuma's Revenge is making a miserably hot and humid day that much more miserable. Can a non-Elven person die twice? I may have an answer if this keeps up.

May all your barrows be cool and restful....

The day you do both, I shall be happy to return to the Downs and take up the battle once more.

Ooh was that the sound of a thrown gauntlet?

Prepare to return oh Fordim for that post has made me feel young as I have not done since all these children turned up... and certain rash words concerning the Prince of Ithilien still lie between us...

So a flibbertigibbert has to do what a flibbertigibbert has to do....

Don't hold your breath but it shall be done...
