So, after reading David Davis's report on my government's complicity in torture, I was thankfully also provided with distraction and a few LOLs by the absurd commentary to the photos from the premiere of Half Blood Prince: [link]

(Interestingly enough, remember that the terrorist attacks in London, as referred to in Davis's statement, came shortly before the publication of HBP? The nervous attitude and upgrading of security to the point of paranoia in the HP world - "Mollywobbles", anyone? - could not have come at a more appropriate time.)

Ennywai. If I don't manage to update before we all traipse merrily to the cinema to see what havoc WB has wrought again on our favourite books - have fun!
