We have had not one, but TWO Harry Potter sightings just from the marketing team over the last few days. One HerMyOwny (Emma Watson) on a dance mat in one of those 'fun centres' in London. She was pretty good apparently. AND one Ginny (Bonnie Wright - you know, Ron's little sister. No? Me either, but try and keep up) who was outside Golders Green tube station. My workplace TUBE STATION! Movie stars in our midst.
To be honest, after my last blog, James could have been known as Voldemort by the look on his face. He did make a lovely cup of tea though. Absolutely magical.
Speaking of magical, we've got a couple of hotels that would make you feel like you could be in one of the Harry Potter movies.
Ballygally Castle is on the scenic Antrim coast only 20 miles (32km)
from Belfast, facing the sandy beaches of Ballygally Bay. The original part of the hotel is a castle dating from 1625 so beware, though the paintings don't speak and there's no John Cleese, you may bump into the friendly resident ghost!
Staying in
Northern Ireland, there is also the Culloden Hotel Belfast. It was formerly a Bishop's Palace dating back to the 1830's situated on the Hollywood Hills. The Culloden is set in 12 acres of beautiful landscaped grounds with spectacular views overlooking Belfast Lough. With its antique furniture, period paintings and Louis XIV chandeliers you could imagine running around under invisible cloaks and dodging drooling dogs (okay my Harry Potter knowledge is slightly limited if this is all i've taken from it).
Keep your eyes peeled for more sightings!
Personally, if we could get some sightings of Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford or (yes, dream on Secret Agent) Chewbacca!!!

Now that would really make my day.
STOP PRESS : Day has officially been made by finding a video of someone's vaccuum cleaner that actually sounds like Chewbacca. I love the web!
Laters,
Secret Agent
