I know MP3's are a rip-off on sites like iTunes and Napster, but surely you can afford more than just one! Or is just a favourite of yours that you listen to over and over again? Let me guess - [Lemming ponders for a while] - Tina Turner, Simply the Best?

Tell you what, I really hate travelling on buses. They seem to take about three times as long as my Fiesta to get somewhere. And the engine - irritatingly - shakes everyone when the bus is at a stand-still which is obviously every two seconds. Plus, I like to have a whole double seat to myself and hate it when people ask me to budge over!

Anyway, this thread is not about buses! Let's talk about how Professor Dumbledore died!

Ha! Ha! O.K - my MP3 player, which is a rubbish Goodmans one, but only cost me £30!!

The first track on it is actually....Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard!

Sorry, I don't even know who Professor Dumbledore is - is he in Harry Pottar?

Yeah! I can promise I know nothing! But when there was a death in the last book, when I first got it, I couldn't rest until I found out who died. Then I read the book!

I don't want to know who dies. The main aim for me of reading the rest of book 3, the whole of book 4 and the whole of book 5 is to find out who dies in book 5 without missing any bits out. A good death in a book is always welcome. Then I can look forward to another death in book 6!

It's all very well being a slow-fast reader Alison. But you've yet to vote. So, come on, prove to me you have bought and read the book by polling! Please.

Oh, and can you supply a rating in the approved manner (see above for tips on how to do this). That would be lovely.

You mean you don't know who died in the fourth book? I don't believe that. A good death is always welcome. I was disappointed last book and hope that J.K. will be ruthless in this one and really do some proper killing!

Ok, I've voted, mind you, looking at what you've written for the options I wouldn't actually go so far as to say he's 'ace' and I still prefer Lord of the Rings, I just like this too, along with huge numbers of other 'fantasy' books. However, you'll have to wait for a rating until I've decided what to give it, once I've done that I'll give you a rating, including what I thought of it (not just stars).
