    OK, there is a group called "To Mordor!" here, but basically that means that they've decided to walk to Mordor and stay there :-)

    Shall we create a new group called "Walking to Mordor (and back)"? Mind you, it's going to take a long time to achieve that challenge :-)

    ABSOLUTELY!

    If you do try it Lord of the Rings Style you need the right equipment, which is generally and axe or broadsword and a fuzzy toed Hobbit on your back.

    Plus they say walk but it's kind of a continues hard run - but don't worry when I'm out with the guys we normally have to hold the back the pace for the slow arsed dwarf.

    And if you post your address on MFP. . you'll have lots of creepy slimy creatures following you. .

    In honour of Bilbo, should we call the group 'there and back again'?

    We'll allow the people to decide (or at least the biggest Tolkien fans) :-) We can create the group a bit later today. Or I can. Or anyone who wants to take charge :-) I'm too tall to be a hobbit!

    Wow, this is getting serious then. If the group needs a theme song can I suggest - Flight of the Concords - The Fellowship.

    Haha awesome! I love douglas Adams, I have a much of his quotes hanging in my little office.

    I never watched quantum leap! So I didn't have that issue. Any of you guys watch any stargate? And do you Trekkies swing both ways into Star Wars? I sure do!

    Star Wars and Star Trek are barely comparable (other than being set in space and having Star in the title), so I'm cool with both. Choosing one is pointless.

    I enjoyed Quantum Leap during my youth (or whatever point in time it fell). Stargate SG-1 is fantastic. The original movie was good. I never could get into Atlantis, however.

    Hijack away!! Great to build a community of support! And who doesn't love Tolkien. I guess ethos isn't too embarrassing to admit here, but a lt of times in the past where I felt like I was at my limit, I would think of Frodo, the little hobbit who traveled through all of middle earth and faced crazy obstacles. Super inspiring!

    :-)

    Of course I could've chosen the shorter route, but I'm stubborn and competitive. And lazy, so this should be interesting. At least I've given myself plenty of time.
