Harry potter and other things (24th July)

So I finally watched the latest potter movie. I remember the time when 2 of my colleagues gave me the first 2 books as a birthday gift. My first reaction was "In case you havent noticed I am well past the stage of reading books on wizards and witches". One of them assured me that her father-in-law who also had the exact same opinion has become a confirmed Potter fan. It didnt sound as too much of an assurance for me but I didnt want to sound rude about her pa-in-law so I took the books with me. A weekend was coming up so I put my feet up to the walls, grabbed a basket full of roasted chestnuts and decided to see what this was all about. The rest as they say is history :-))
