YOUR Middle-earth
Forget New Zealand! (well, just for a minute), I thought it might be interesting to start a topic on whether you can recommend an area near you, or that you've visited, that reminds you of Middle-earth. [sorry if this has been done before ] My offering is the the beautiful South Downs of Southern En...

I'm a big fan of Jordan's epic series, although I must admit the wait for each book to be published meant it was hard to remember the action from volume to volume, and I must go back and re-read at some point! Here is the latest on Book 12, the final volume, A Memory of Light from Jordan's own fansi...

He lifted Pippin gently and carried him back to his bed. Merry followed, and sat down beside him. 'Lie there and rest, if you can, Pippin!' said Gandalf. 'Trust me. If you feel an itch in your pants again, tell me of it! Such things can be cured... ...'Pants come in the night when least expected,' ...

My kids have the Reiner Knizia cooperative boardgame and the extension sets, plus the trivia game in the same series, and LotR Stratego. Latest acquisition is The Hobbit (The Defeat of the Evil Dragon Smaug), which they all love, especially my youngest who's a month off 7. She can cope with that kin...

This thread is so funny I just had to register! Here are my offerings, firstly from FotR - 'Very well,' said Gandalf. 'But we must not use the pants - not unless it is a choice between fire and death.' And from The Hobbit - Bert and Tom went off to the barrel. William was having another drink. Then ...
