I'm from England, Buckingham*shire* if ya want to get technical, lol. I thought There would be more brits here, this board really is diverse.
I have a confession, I only started reading the Lord of The Rings in January this year. I read the Hobbit a long time ago, but never realised that LoTR was kind of like a sequel (if I'd have known it had more Bilbo in it I would have picked it up in a flash) I'd always known about it, but I think I assumed it was a bit too geeky or something (I know, I'm hanging my head in shame!) until my dad bought me the set for Christmas. Now I can't believe I didn't read it sooner, and I can't imagine what it was like not to have read it! It touched me that much. I read most of it on Holiday in The Alps in March, sitting by this snowy, fastflowing river with no-one around(yes, I'm also a hopeless sap, hehe) so the whole book is linked up with this wilderness picture in my mind and I'm now a Tolkien freak. <img src=smile.gif ALT="
