Faithful fans camp out for Tolkien
Submitted by stevecastle on Sun, 2007-04-22 10:31.When the shops opened in London yesterday, Marcus Harrison and Richard Hayward achieved something special in the annals of fandom. Not for them the camaraderie of camping out for concert tickets, a Playstation or the latest Harry Potter. They had endured a night vigil for a new book by an author who died 34 years ago: J.R.R. Tolkien.
Mad as badgers, obviously...

"One book to rule them all". Mad as a badger I am...I'd consider camping out for this one. Did I mention my Fellowship of the Rings membership certificate?
err no.... certificate?? I'm just glad I got to the end of the all.. It took me 5 attempts, man and boy, to read all three!!
