News from me:

I finally got a non-region-coded DVD player! Yay!

Had a good, if busy weekend – this is shaping up to be the case for the rest of January. Oh well, such is life.

Some Harry Potter news for those of you who don’t know already:

• The book is listed in a Barnes & Noble website in the US as coming out on the 31 July, Harry’s birthday. Not all that reliable, but certainly indicative that we can expect book five around the middle of this year.
• Apparently Gary Oldman is in talks to play Sirius Black for the Prisoner of Azkaban movie – this one also looks reasonably good. HSX have had him up as a member of the cast for most of this week now.
