In The News
Debut Quibbler Edition Hits the Stands!
LeakyOn this freaky Friday we bring you a The Quibbler, a magazine full of “all the news you won’t find anywhere else”! You can read it right here (and if you need directions on how to navigate the document, click here). The first edition, here just in time to celebrate Friday 13th, is right here!
This magazine has been written by Leaky staffers and was the brainchild of our forum mod, Rudius Hagrid; it was produced with help from Chloe, Evreka, Mary Wanguard, Doris, Lunesta, libbysmom, Dreamteam, Moose_Starr, LunasLion, Dragonsinger, danae24, SeverineSnape, Isabel, Jamie, Iheartprofessorsnape, The Azkaban Dietician, rowena r and Makani.
In this edition you can find information on Ministry conspiracies, missing DADA professors, and how to increase your intelligence by being hit by fruit. Useful information for all! Enjoy!

Congratulations, going to read The Quibbler ^^
FUN! I didn’t know Ollivander’s sold robes, he must be branching out. :)
Creature Caption: Rodents Rally Round Their Fallen Comrade to Proclaim: Scabbers was framed!
Wow I just read it and it’s hilarious! Particularly the MORON badge lol. Congratulations to all the leaky staff who contributed =)
A copy of HarryLatino’s Quisquilloso (‘The Quibbler’), but definetly worse.
Congratshahaha!
This is wonderful! But I want a material copy, one I can get in the mail and keep on my shelf as a keepsake. Is there anyway to make this into a real magazine? I would subscribe! Where do I sign up?
It was hilarious!!!! ” How to show proper respect to your wand” hahahaha lol = ] It’s my mom’s birthday today and it’s Friday the 13th!!! grins wickedly
Severitis,
We’ve added a zip file on the info page of The Quibbler for anyone who might prefer a hard copy. You can find that here. http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/fun/quibbler
Thanks for the idea!

I’m glad you guys are enjoying it – it was a lot of fun to do.
I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised someone else had the idea first of doing one of these – but in my defence I didn’t know that it was done before.
This is my gift to HP fandom: something to laugh about and enjoy again after the stress of recent events.
Which brings me on to the idea of a printed edition: I’d rather not. We can offer the Quibbler for free in this format and if it gets printed people have to pay. That’s somewhere we just dont want to go.
It’s great fun and I love you all, but how do you expect me to navigate this flash technology at work without being observed by those who think I’m actually working?
i really had fun reading it!!!! i hope there’s more to come!!!! btw isnt borgin and burkes at knockturn alley….?
Indeed Borgin and Burkes IS in Knockturn alley. We shall be withholding payment from the advertising agency as a result. XD
Well spotted :)
It may not be staetd enough in the Quibbler, but public submissions are welcome: just send an owl to the email address supplied.
I love the LOTR reference:
“second cousin, twice removed, on his mother’s side”
Hahahahahahaaa this is soooooo cool!!! “Lily Potter spotted on The Knight Bus”? rofl? Hope I get time to read it soon. :D Really really great stuff!!!!
I downloaded the PDF zip file, but the first page is messed up. Anybody else have this problem or just me?
I think this is a great idea and thank you very much for the fun read Leaky!
