Hi,

I came to LOTR in a rather back door way, through the Middle Earth Role Playing games in the early 80's. I began reading the LOTR, Silmarilion and later Unfinished and Lost Tales more to familiarize myself in the universe I was playing in rather then anything else, and like you all got pulled right in.

Anyway, mariage and kids came and then of course the films and I find myself being dragged (very willingly) in all over again with the added bonus of watching it through my sons' eyes. My eldest is just reading The Hobbit and I'm reading it to my youngest at bed time.

I just discovered this site and hope to spend much time here, though I'm not exactly sure what I can contribute.

H.C.
