1. My dad was a Tolkien fan, and used to read LotR every year. I can't remember a time when there weren't Tolkien books around the house. I think my brother read The Hobbit and bits of LotR to me when I was very small. And I definitely remember my brother, my dad and I listening to the radio adaptation when it was first transmitted, so round about when I was nine.
2. Badly. I would take on the job with high hopes, and great faith that folk respond to consensus-seeking and moderate, reasoned debate - and I'd quit less than a year later knackered, in a foul mood and bitter. And then I'd do it all over again, and again, and again...
3. Good question, it really set me thinking... Gandalf the Grey, I think, because the world would be a better place. Or else Methos, because the world would be a more interesting place.
