LOTR

I have to confess that for the third time Lord Of The Rings has been shelved. After making 100 page progress while convalescing after my tonsillectomy (I didn't read every day, I picked the thing up about 3 times in total and I have a reading age of about 9. So if it seems I'm making no more progress than an asthmatic ant with heavy shopping don't mock me!) I stopped readig it again.
The only reading I've done is that New Zealand book and even then I haven't paid very close attention to that. I'll try LOTR again at the end of the year - honest!
