What is in your attic? Things from the past that you
cannot bear to part with? Here are the first 'adventures' of our
group, compiled from what started as light-hearted role-play. At
the time we were learning the fun and craft of collaborative writing.
The results were - well, often hilarious, spontaneous, madcap -
come join our first forays into wild realms of adventure. Just remember
... anything goes.

Off
to Mordor

return of the Jabberwock, orcs as allies, Nazgirls, and the

makes peace with ghosts of the past. Our last foray into the
incongruous … which ends in deep matters of the heart.
