I love ... mac

I have come over to the side of good. I am no longer held captive by the manacles of monopoly. I have been released into a world of beauty and small, white, plastic boxes. I am the proud owner of a MacBook.

I love it. It is the single most beautiful thing in my life (apart from Chell of course). It can do everything. Apart from operating my washing machine (although I've emailed Steve Jobs with a few ideas) it can do pretty much everything else.

And this is my first blog on my mac - during which I am happily having a video chat with Lard, JMoney and Irish boy. This is the coolest thing ever. I will try not to blog too much about my mac but I feel it is certainly worthy of at least one post.

Anyway, that's enough today. I aso did a VERY cool thing today but I won't blog about it until I have the photos from Will and Debbie. I'll blog about today in a week therefore. Sorry that's confusing.

Last Saturday night we played at the Royal Albert Hall. Cool.

Harry Potter

So, friends, I think it would be good to get some discussion going on amongst us with regard to the pending release of 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows' on July 21st.

WARNING - the following post has spoilers from all the previous 6 books - if you don't want to find out too much, don't read on...

Anyway, I am looking forward to book 7 coming out. Apparently there has been a guarantee of NO BOOK 8 - which I for one think is a good thing. Harry Potter is a pretty good read, although I think the quality of the series goes a little wayward in book 5 and 6. Hopefully she can pull it back with number 7?

I've had a little think have a few thoughts and questions and it'd be good to hear everyone's thoughts. Quick aside, one of my favourite memories of working in the Mission Team office in Morden (as it was then) was sitting quietly in bookclub with James G, Steve C, Lard K (I think?) and possibly Phil H all reading The Order of the Pheonix the day it came out...bless us all!...

Anyway...

#SPOILER REMINDER - DON'T READ ON IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW#


1)Will Dumbledore be coming back in book 7? If he is dead, has he made his own horcrux?

2) Is Harry a Horcrux? Therefore does he need to kill himself to rid the world of Voldemort? Or is there just too much LOVE in him? Does Harry die at all?

3) Dumbledore's death seemeed a bit too easy (book 6). Is he dead? Is Snape, who killed him, a goodie? Was it someone else using polyjuice potion?

4) Does Petunia or Dudley have magical powers?

The Fruits of Sunday

Last Sunday, when it was raining, we were bored, so we made this...
