The first (and possibly last, though hopefully not) meeting
of the VIRABTUG (Vancouver Island rec.arts.books.tolkien Users'
Group) was held on Sunday May 2, at 11:30am.
Venue: Solda's Family Restaurant, Port Alberni
Members attending:
- Aaron Clausen, representing the Port Alberni chapter
- Jamie Andrews, representing the London Ontario chapter (?!)
Length of meeting: about 2 hours
Topics discussed:
- Experiences of reading HoME
- JRRT's unusual writing process
- Interesting characters (e.g. Denethor and his sons)
- Flames, PJ, and MM
- Mars
- Others? (perhaps the other delegate can remind me)
A good time was had by all.
