FANS of The Lord of the Rings were heading for a free fantasy gaming gathering this afternoon.

Set to run at North Swindon Library from 4pm to 6pm, the gathering is billed as giving fantasy fans the chance to play a game, find out what gaming involves and do some figure painting.

A second session is to be held on Tuesday, December 16, again from 4pm to 6pm at North Swindon Library.

Both are being supported by the Games Workshop store in Fleet Street, Swindon, and sponsored by the local Neigh-bourhood Safety Team.
