Yes it is the same. That's why I chose that piece because of the different name in the hope that people would use "castle". It obviously didn't work. I'm tempted to chuck in an appeal on Suzanne's behalf but I think she may want to fight her own battles. |

I've emailed Bloomsbury. I confidently expect them to reply promptly and tell me that Deathly Hallows has now sold well above 50m and you can deduct 8 points from my score. In fact do it now, and we'll fix it later if they don't  . |

dunno - I've always thought The Hague was the capital of the Netherlands so presumably donk thought the same. A quick google reveals that I was obviously taught incorrectly!! well done Dino and Jon! |
