Harry Potter Sorrow (by sarah)
This was written offline on Monday:
Well as I had to be 'rescued' from Cheltenham on Friday I obviously do not yet have the book that I have been waiting for - for an age Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This is really really frustrating me!
Ontop of that I have started to feel really ill - stomache variety - apparently our tap water is a)contaminated and b)about to run out and there are riots at Asda and things over the bottled water which sounds really scary.
We are going to try and get some food in as obviously all the food in the fridge and freezers is lost not becuase we don't have any electricity as we have a generator but becuase the appliences themselves got wet and are therefore not safe to plug in.
I am hoping that I can finially pick up a copy of Harry Potter whilst out!

I am sorry to have to say it, Sarah, but I think you must be insane. You are flooded, your child and yourself have stomach infections from contaminated water, and who knows how long Alaric will hold out, you have no food and probably more floods coming, and in the midst of all this you worry about getting hold of a Harry Potter book. When are going to find the time to read it, anyway?

Ah well, I know how addictive the HP books are. 🙂 We've all been waiting nearly 10 years to see how the entire story will finally pan out. Badly timed release date for you but I bet it's taking your mind off things. xx I'm halfway through it already!!
