Andy Thanks so much for this. I love spoofs & parodies and used to enjoy the Spectator competitions many years ago. As this site seems to be having a bit of a problem at the moment I will now go and while away a few hours reading through the Potter ones - brilliant. nell

With the arrival of 'Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince' coming soon, The Guardian has had a contest to write a Harry Potter scene in the style of another writer. Since the rumour is that a character dies, they picked Dumbledore (not as a spoiler -- they don't know). There is a long list of entries in various styles. I had a good laugh at some of these during lunch, particularly the Scooby Doo one. Hopefully Harry Potter fans will see the funny side. :) Go to the following page: http://books.guardian(.)co(.)uk/potter/page/0,13381,1521782,00.html *remove brackets*
