Beats audio books, a friend of mine listens to books (he has listened to the whole HP series in his car, read by Stephen Fry I believe, complete with sketchy character voices) and states that he has 'read' them. I can understand he can't read when driving, but the whole audio book thing just seems wrong.

Seems OK to me. Saves trees as well.

Apparently the book has been leaked already...

can't be doing with e-books. If you read a whole Harry Potter off a screen, your eyes would be little burnt-out craters by the end wouldn't they?

What do you think a Company's laser printers are for?

Anyway, better crack on. Alastair Campbell's diaries aren't going to read themselves, more's the pity. Thank goodness they only go up to 2003.

Just spoken (MSM actually) to my ‘source’ again. He downloaded images of the pages for his daughter last night and had a peek this morning. His daughter went into a right paddy over breakfast. “DON’T TELL ME! LA, LA, LA. Not listening. I HATE YOU”, sort of stuff. She won’t talk to him now.

I think I know another man who will be queuing up on Friday night. That’ll teach him to be a smart arse!

Glossops a weird place.. used to know a chap whose dad ran a newsagents there...weird

Was the dad called Edward? You wouldn't catch me on the streets of Glossop at midnight on a Friday night.

[Troll]

Yep

I will be at the Tesco's at 12.01am in Glossop Friday / Saturday night. Was there for the last one and there was a bit of a crowd and several people dressed up etc.

Nope.

I guessed someone else and told yes, but I'm not telling.

Aparently the book ends with, "All was well".

Anyone pre ordered?

Nah, it'll be on alt.binaries.e-books in a week or two, if it isn't already

(not that I'll bother reading the great big doorstopper, although I might buy the DVD when it comes out)

I thought that HP7 was the old name for AA batteries?

Come to think of it - I do need some of those.

you should be using rechargeable batteries you fool.
