As part of the literature festival Hogwarts (or as it is in real life Christchurch College) threw open its doors for families to enjoy its glorious surroundings.
As I am Harry Potter mad I couldn’t pass up this opportunity so gathered up some family, (mine are ginned up enjoying the good life in Torquay (which seemed a bit far to come for lunch)) so I gathered James Dad and Stepmum instead.
James stepmum, the wonderful Kate, she paints and is doing an Open University degree in English at the moment (fantastic woman).
Dinner was a choice of roast (I opted for the pork) served among the fantastic surroundings of the real Hogwarts. Dessert was rhubarb crumble and Custard. Here are Jam & I (Jam sulking slightly as I insisted in going in ‘witches uniform’ & sadly I was the only one). People of Oxfordshire we expect a better turn out next year, we are known for being eccentric you know!
