Isn't that what Dumbledore said when awarding 10 points to Neville (Gryffindor) at the end of the first Harry Potter book?

I haven't seen any of the movies :oops: , but I think the first book was titled Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

Well done Zoot, although I'm not sure it was 10 points. I know it was enough to tilt the balance in favour of Gryffindor.

I think they changed the name of the film to Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone for the US market, but they may have retained the original name in the U.K.

Anyway, your turn to put one up.

By the way, I looked it up and you were correct Zoot - it was 10 points.

I read all the books around the time they were originally published, although I think the first three had been published when I started. I think I've seen most of the films - probably the first 3 or 4 in the cinema with my kids, the others on TV.

Nope.

I could have posted this under "Name that Tune", also... it is from a song from a film.

The wonderful thing about Tiggers,
is Tiggers are wonderful things!
Their tops are made out of rubber,
Their bottoms are made out of springs!

They're bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun!
But the most wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is I'm the only one, I'm the only one!

Right you are, Dave!

The Shawshank Redemption?

A lucky/timely coincidence - have the DVD, which up until a few days ago, I hadn't watched for ages. Wouldn't otherwise have recognised the quote. :)

Morgan Freeman was on the Graham Norton show on Friday (in the UK) so the timing was good all round. Your turn Jill :-)

Thank you David. :)

Perhaps an example of ' great minds think alike ' ... Well, I'm sure that yours is great ... The jury is still out with regard to mine. :lol:

He wants to improve himself. And you'll be able to play it. Teach him how to look after it.

Thanks Jill. The virtual Easter egg is much appreciated - much better for me than the chocolate variety. :lol: :lol:


Well, let me ask you something. How can you forgive this guy for standing you up and not forgive me for this tiny little thing of... of putting you out of business?
