Only a few hours now before the event.
Are you prepared?
Remember that there may be obstacles in your way, such as a crowd of snotty 
adolescents who don't realise that a true fan is being kept waiting, or a store 
assistant who functions at the speed of a rheumatic sloth. So:-

1. Borrow a Smeltings stick
2. Hone the welts on your steel capped boots
3. Exercise your elbows - they may be needed for some plucky work.
4. Carry a copy of "Quidditch through the Ages"
5. If the crowd is large ( i.e. more than three ), hold up the book and shout " JKR is 
signing copies in the 'Sports and Pastimes' section!"
6. Approach the counter.
7. Announce in a loud clear voice "A copy of the masterpiece, my good man. And be 
quick about it, if you don't want a damned good thrashing."
8. Exchange coin of the realm for book.
9. Start reading.
10. If you are requested to move away from the counter, respond by stating that you 
are looking for printing errors and have no intention of moving until you have  
checked every word.
11. Bliss!


Kneasy 
Who wishes an uninterrupted weekend to all
