Me, part 673 *TRIGGERS*

[Paula]

He hadn’t used Amazon, he hasn’t watched Harry Potter. Has he been sleeping under a rock for the last 20 years?? . Bless him, thank God he’s got you! You really need to do some educating

[Jaquaia]

Oh my dad's watched Harry Potter! Had no choice really as my mum loves them! J's never seen them! Had to try explaining why I was crying without giving any spoilers!!!

[OldMike]

Think I've been living under half a rock for the last 20 years.

Watched the occasional Harry Potter movie and never really got it at all especially quiditch or whatever it was called (I know sad isn't it)

But I have availed myself of the delights of Amazon

[Jaquaia]

I've read the books so many times that you can barely read the title on the spines of the first 5 (they're paperbacks) and the pages are coming loose in my cope of The Philosophers Stone. I think the books give the stories so much depth and there are things that the films left out which should have been there. Some things aren't explained in the films.

It's been ok. Finished wrapping. Did some uni work. Watched Harry Potter and cried like a baby when Harry goes into the Great Hall after the Battle of Hogwarts. J rang as I was crying so took some explaining as he's never seen it!!! Flicked it on to +1, got tearful but fared a bit better until Snape...

"After all this time?"

"Always"

Every. Single. Time.

And me. Every. Single. Time. And there have been plenty of times. Always more in the books though!

I agree! I think there should have been an extended version of each movie that actually follows the books, rather than just the essence of them!

[Jaquaia]

Like how does Hermione, a muggle-born, know what a mudblood is? Why is she so upset about it when she's been in the wizarding world all of 5 minutes? I think they should have left that explanation to Ron, it would have made much more sense!

[Suzi]

Lol..... But it's all because she's read Hogwarts: A history more times than you think!

[Jaquaia]

But why would mudblood be in that? And why is there no explanation as to how Bill got hurt? And the night Dumbledore died was far too rushed!!!! They could have made that battle epic!!!! And no explanation as to how Bill and Fleur met! And.... and.... and....

[Jaquaia]

Made an apple crumble for after dinner, kitchen smells lovely and cinnamon-y now. I normally love baking and cooking but it was bloody stressful!!!!

"Have you got any lard? You're cutting the apples wrong, your nana did it like this. Are you peeling them? So and so didn't peel them..."

Ffs mother!!! Go away and let me make it my way!!!

[Suzi]

Oh! I sympathise! I've been baking too!

Fern's done a trial run for her food tech tomorrow because her teacher literally shouldn't be allowed in a kitchen... So I've made the homemade jam for her, backlava, vegan quichey thing, got everything ready for dinner and done all the washing up as I went along too! I'm knackered!

Hope you are resting and away from the stress love...
