wow fantastic video! i can´t help feeling completely nostalgic at this point now…i´m on the verge of tears! thanks a lot to all of you guys who have stuck with harry “until the very end”, to all who have made all this many years the most wonderful years in my life. thanks to leaky for its eternal struggle to give us all our daily dose of potter, without which i think i would become insane. but most importantly, thanks to jo, whose books are like cheering charms to me! and, guys, don´t forget tonight to raise your goblets and make a toast for harry, the boy who lived! HAPPEE 2008!!!

That. Was. Bloody. BRILLIANT! Well done JP.

And well done Leaky, for bringing us all the HP-related news and helping to keep a fandom alive!

And to the magnificent J.K. Rowling, for being so kind as to share Harry with us :)

Have A Very Harry New Year!

This was pretty cool! I was surprised to see MuggleNet and Leaky both did something tho… I think MN’s goes into a little more detail :)

Happy New Year to Melissa, John and Sue along with everyone else on the Leaky staff. You all rock my world every day of the year! Thanks for your dedication!

MN’s was surprisingly incomprehensive. Ignoring the PotterCast interview from Jo altogether – churlish and altogehter unsurprising. And grossly self congratulatory on their podcast. I love this video. There’s no way you can sum up 10 years in a few lins of text, at leat this video went for the feeling, that’s more adequate than a skimpy timeline.

Sniff… 10 years of crazed obessions, going, going, almost gone. sigh. This was the last huge HP year, the last year that had spectulation for a movie and book, the last major double climax. It’s been nice to live through it, to say “We were there in 2007”, the last great year of HP…. See you guys on the other side!!

JP … nicely done!

What a wild ride, and so glad that Harry was able to say ”... Snape … bravest … ”. I look forward to the Scottish Book and whether or not Jo’s children beg her to write about Albus Severus Potter … (I always wondered if we wouldn’t hear more about the Weasleys trip to Egypt … hmmm Cleopatra … asp … Egypt … sounds like a mystery brewing to me).
