I have read all of the main books by Tolkien, but I have to admit that I don't really know all of Home in the same way as the more story-based text.

A Gamgee - are you related to the famous Samwise Gamgee? _________________ Nai tengwestie nóle kalyuva kuilelya!

I did originally choose this name on the basis that he was, I believe the first person to speak in Lotr. Though of course, not in the entire tales! So I suppose I'm his Gaffer! However, if you notice in the appendixes, Sam has a son called Hamfast as well!

I'd love this board to get moving. Unfortunately, I've given up on it a little because there doesn't seem to be a lot of activity, but I'd be glad to get it going. _________________ 'But why dost thou say 'mere words'?

I might have more time for it after my summer holidays, perhaps - we've bought a holiday cottage, and will be spending a lot of time moving into it. One recent name in the member list looks familiar , but she hasn't posted yet ... _________________ Nai tengwestie nóle kalyuva kuilelya!

Summer is going to be slow naturally. When everyone's back in school they'll be online more. Plus, we have the ramping up of production on The Hobbit movies to look forward to with all the influx of Orly fangirls that come with it! _________________ "Good work. Sleep well.

Right now I'm going through the member list and purging anyone and everyone who has a 'name' that is a jumble of letters, or any type of commercial website listed. I'm going to make a new rule that soliciting a commercial website will result in you not getting approved. Not that I think any of these 'people' (bots) will actually read it, but it's a good way for me to know who's real and who isn't. _________________ 'But why dost thou say 'mere words'?

Just been busy in RL -- playing music, landscaping the back yard, spending quality time with Boy Wonder, etc. Things have calmed down a bit in the big city since a certain citizen was finally banned. Let's hope it stays that way. Back to top Varnafindë Nandor Joined: 25 Apr 2008 Posts: 142 Location: Rivendell, sometimes Norway Posted: Fri Jul 25, 2008 11:37 pm    Post subject: Welcome, bombadil! Yes, RL can take up such a lot of one's time, can't it? Time that could otherwise have been spent posting? *sigh* *agrees about the situation in the big city* _________________ Nai tengwestie nóle kalyuva kuilelya!
