Hay on Whe (was Re: [HPforGrownups] God, I Love Rumors... (WAS: Re: interview)

Forgive me for jumping in here, but I have visited Hay on Wye several 
times and I love it.  It is a bibliophile's paradise - as many, if 
not more, bookshops than Charing Cross Road and its environs.    The 
only problem is, practically every time I have been there it has 
rained.  There are also pros and cons to going during the festival 
(was a couple of weeks ago) - great for booksignings, readings etc. 
but very difficult to find somewhere to stay and very crowded - not 
easy to get down to some serious browsing.
