Edinburgh


Edinburgh, originally uploaded by Harriet Vane.

This is the cafe where J K Rowling wrote the first Harry Potter book. That is me in the doorway, looking whimsical. What do you mean I don't look whimsical? Trust me, whimsical is what I was going for. Screw you, naysayer.

Or 'wimsical', if you're feeling nerdy.

She must have had quite a few coffees in order to write a book on a visit there.

Indeed she drank many, many cups of coffee. I heard she had to use her royalties from the first 10,000 hardback copies sold to pay her bill.
There was also a question concerning several glasses of unpaid for pomegranite juice; hence all those sequels she writes.

If she liked that cafe so much are you sure she doesn't own it now? ;)

Does this mean you'll be able to write a fully correct and accurate Harry Potter quiz now?

(also, the word verifications thingy on here so you know I'm not a spammer just made me write a rude word - bottmbum to be precise - I have delicate sensibilities you know.)
