Ooh, and the window is looking a little grubby, perhaps just a once over... And when did the hob get so manky, I'll have to see to that - and hey ho, the day has escaped....

A real Besom is a hairball from incide a goat and actaully works at absorbing arsenic out of wine leaving it safe to drink. Harry Potter is ganre fiction that made the leap to being mainstream. David Gemmel once told me that he was hugely jealous of any science fiction or fantasy writed who managed to be perceived as being out side of the genre as their income was massively increased. He cited JK Rowling and Terry Pratchett as well as whoever ity was who wrote Cloud Atlas and got away with it. Fact of the moment which is tangentially related:

By popular request it was a pirateship cake. Theo helped me with the decorating. There were Lego mini-figures all over it. There was a Lego min figure drowning in the icibng sea as a lego crocodile swam over with the intention of eating him. There was a Lego mini figure on the beach with a cannon about to fire at the pirate ship unless they turned out to be goodies. As far as playing with your food goes I think we were there in a major league way! on the subject of “playing with your food” at out big joint party Jonny did the catering but I made a cake.
