Lord of the rings

Having skimmed through The Hobbit movies mostly zipping through the battle scenes, I was more than ready to watch the far superior series, lord of the Rings.  However my DVD player on my laptop would not recognize or accept the discs.  Finally somewhat late in the evening Richard I was able to get my Blu-ray player going and the discs seem to be working.  Meanwhile today my grand daughter had her graduation party on Zoom.  I excused myself to get my chickens in after listening to them play participation game for a while.
