There's two things every foreigner needs to do when visiting England: try and break through the barrier between platforms nine and ten, and cross Abbey Road.  | |

Yes! When I went to England over the summer I made a special effort to go find it even though I was going to be late for my train to Edinburgh.
I was pleasantly surprised when there was actually a sign for platform 9 and 3/4!!

They might start charging money if it continues like that, LOL!

Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

About a year ago there was a report on SS that management at Kings Cross had put barracades in the three quarter spot becauase people kept trying to walk through it.
