| | |  Quote of the Week - 9/2 Member of Parliament
The Daily Record has an interesting quote from an event at Bute House, Scotland, where J.K.Rowling was present. The incident involves an un-named Member of Parliament. Quote:
Our MP took his place at the dinner table beside a woman called Jo. He hadn't a Scooby who she was but had been told she was a writer.
'So, Jo...' he said 'you're a writer. What sort of books do you write?'
Jo kindly filled him in... 'Harry Potter books'.

Kind of reminds me of Prince Philip asking Cate Blanchett what she does as a job, then, when he found out she worked in films, asked her if she'd be able to pop round and fix his dvd player, lol.
*And, coincidentally, that's what the reporter of this piece commented on, too, lol  | |

Outside my window I see a red bird singin' sittin' on a wire; wish I knew what he's thinkin' outside my window

Teehee, it's just so unrealistic that someone could not know who she is.
Poor guy.
I'm thinking he might just not know her by appearance, and thought she could be any other Jo?
