Continuing the Harry Potter theme, I got the following text from my mother a couplwe of nights ago:

"Just 2 let u know I've been 2 bed with Harry Potter every night this wk. Great he is too! Martin Clunes next!!"

My mother is in her mid-sixties, a practising catholic, and the only man she has a crush on to the best of my knowledge (other than arguably my father) is Alan Bennett.

Frankly, I'm deeply disturbed.
