Well....I have it written on my calendar....Dh is having DS all day so I can read in peace....I'm counting down the days until saturday....but...like Kathy says, all good harmless fun so why not! Better than going out getting blind drunk, vomming on the pavement and flashing my norks at passers by! (not that I do that when there is no HP release imminent btw!)

They're quite well-written children's adventure books. Nothing new, nothing exciting. And that is ALL.

People are all too ready and willing to be victims of hype.

Not enough sex that's what it is. (just joking!) I think people should be allowed to be excited, infact i think it's nice people are excited about things better than being all grown up and boring isnt it?

YABU. its one thing i am looking forward to, wheres the harm in that

I have one. The problem is that it's not very interesting!
Each to their own I say.

Actually I stopped being excitied 2 books ago but as one who was excited I don't feel I can criticise.

YOu will like the comment in the Guardian today...hang on a tick
