We are driving up to Oban (from SW Cumbria) on the Friday - so a long, tiring day. Then travelling by ferry to Mull the following day.
Ds1 (will be just 10) is a huge HP fan, and has read all the books several times. I was assuming he would go to a midnight book launch, as he'll be desperate for the book. But dh thinks it would be better for him to get a good night's sleep, so he's not cranky all holiday, and pick the book up first thing Sat am.
