Nicking off Tolkien

[Rumil]

Hi Beth and Thinlomien,

I don't think I know any people with 'public' LoTR nicknames, though there was one guy who was known as Gollum behind his back, which was rather cruel but did suit him.

On the bikers subject, the shooting was dreadful and its not the first time that it has happened, but I don't think its fair to condemn all bikers because of this. I used to share a house with couple of Bulldog Bash biker attendees, one of whom once won the coveted 'dog bike' award for the most disgracefully manky motorbike to manage to make it to Long Marston. They were both great chaps and would never have hurt a fly, and weren't Angels, or indeed angels as long as one didn't object to disassembled bike engines in the sink!

After all

All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost

Cheers,

Rumil
