Brian, Paul and all

Brilliant love the structure and have been reading thruCrawford's 'Tattúínárdœla saga on line which would be great to dig into. Also if there is any interest I am also going to be reading The
Saga of King Heidrek the Wise in the 50th anniversary edition by Christopher Tolkien (as you. Can probably tell from my blog I am a major Tolkien lover) and will attempt a translation of this fornaldsogur from Old Norse - so three projects should keep me busy!!!!

Look forward to taking part

Best, Andy
