Harry Potter Deathly HallowsReally looking forward to getting this.DH DS2 and I are off on holiday on 29th July and on the 3rd and 4th August DH and DS2 are going to BlizzCon - it's a convention for World of Warcraft and other Blizzard games - which means I have two whole days to veg out by the pool or in the hotel room to read it. I am so hoping I can get through the first days without accidentally finding out the ending! |

I've pre ordered it from amason, and getting it delivered to the shop, really looking forward to it arriving, yet at the same time not wanting to read it cause I really don't want it to end.

Mine's on order from the book club (last thing I'm getting from them as I think I can cancel now), so I hope it arrives in a timely manner! Can't wait to read it but don't want it to end either. |

I dont tend to buy many books now, only those I know I will reread and I've never reread any of the HP books, as much as I enjoy them  I will be getting a copy from the Library so will have to wait awhile probably so shall need to try and avoid spoilers
I am currently listening to the audio tapes of the Half Blood Prince (again from the Library) to refresh my memory. I love Stephen Fry

All I am hoping is that Royal Mail don't go on strike next weekend as I have two copies on order from Amazon. I will have to wait until one of the kids finish their copies. Hopefully DD will have a marathon read and be finished by Sunday!!! |

Can you imagine the national outcry if the RM did go on strike? It would be worse than....well I can't think of anything worse on that particular day. All those undelivered HP books. *shudders at the thought* |

Well I honestly do not think that the union are that stupid, I think if they did strike they would be killing themselves, so far I don't think it will happen, there is just too much at stake to strike next week, they have to give a weeks notice so I don't think they will, they are talking about doing a friday and monday strike but not yet.
It is killing us every strike day costs us £50 and that is a hell of a lot to loose a week. As for the book, hubby will buy us both a copy when he finishes work at 2am so we can start reading that day, we will then not talk to each other untill we have both finished it, lol |

I'm going to Asda at midnight on Friday to get my copy and I think I'd better get a box of tissues too!!

Does any one whos read the book fancy discussing it via PM, I am itching to talk about the book, but none of my friends are remotely interested in the books.
TIA Cathie |
