Today on my way home from college I saw no fewer than 20 people reading HP
on the train and tube. When i got on the Victoria line at Euston there were
5 in my carriage reading HP 3 GoF, 1 PoA and 1 PS. One of the GoF's got off
at Kings Cross which I thought was appropriate. The others were all spotted
at Tottenham Hale on passing commuter trains while waiting for my (delayed)
train. 6 on the Stanstead airport train. 5 on their way to Kings Lynn. 3
heading for Bishops Stortford and 1 reader on my train (to Broxbourne) and
it wasn't me.
There you are Harry Potter is if not on the way to world domination
certainly appears to be the London commuters favourite reading matter.
It was a needed distraction as the Hatfield crash has now blown my theory
about train safety out of the water. Previously I felt if I avoided the
first and last two carriages and didn't travel first class I'd be OK but the
dead were in the middle this time.
Heather who enjoyed her survey as it distracted her from her twice daily
peril at the hands of railtrack.
