In case anyone is interested and missed this - The Winner of the Guardian's contest

The winner of the contest to write Dumbledore's death scene is The Poppynge of the Clogges written in the style of Geoffery Chaucer, by some guy called Tom Richardson.

The 17th Century echo poem got an honourable mention, which is good, cause I liked that one.

Still no book.

About 40 minutes into the flight, a note saying, "Bomb, bomb, bomb ... meet the parents," was found on a crumpled napkin with a wad of chewing gum in it.

I suppose in today's world it is better to be safe than blown into itty bits, but really...it was a napkin, shoved behind the tray table. With gum in it. Not exactly the last word in scary.

And I finally get to say ( cut for spoilers )
