Well! My fellow Barrow-Downers have I got news for you!<P>I went out shopping today (to buy a box of tea bags to be exact) and I was pushing my shopping trolley around the shop when I saw a display of LoTR videos.<P>I thought they were The Fellowship videos out on display, but when I got closer I noticed they were "The Two Towers". I picked the video box up and stared at it! I thought to myself, there is probably a sign somewhere saying 'cannot be purchased until 26th August', but there was no sign to be seen! So sheepishly I put the box cover in my trolley and went to the check out to pay for my goods. The lady on the till swipped the price through and called for an assistant to go and get the film.<P>I said to her "I didn't think they were on sale until 26 August, that's what all the advertisements say elsewhere". She replied, "We can sell them now and you get a choice of a free book to go with it".<P>So folks, not only have I got "The Two Towers" video before the advertised date, and quite legally too, but I also got a companion book to go with it.<P>So if there any Barrow-Downer's reading this who are in the UK, nip on down to your local Morrison's store, cos you will find it (and this includes the DVD) already on sale!<P>Oh by the way! I have already watched it and it is just as good as when I went to see it at the cinema!
