international board?

Yes, it's international. I'm from the Netherlands. I read LoTR when I was about 15, day and night, even during boring classes.
It was in english and I couldn't put it down, even though I didn't like the hobbit first. Later I tried the dutch translation, but a lot of the atmosphere seemed to be missing.
Now I stumbled on the Barrow Downs and I intend to reread everything and even try to read the unfinished tales.
At the moment I'm not working because of a broken ankle (they put some mithril in it) and I have a borrowed computer. However, I intend to buy my own asap, I really like it.
I think the Barrow Downs is a nice site with a lot of items.
BTW Mithadan, being dutch you have to speak foreign languages.
And Burrahobbit, the best compliment I ever got, was that an irish lady couldn't hear where I came from.;-)
