It seems familiar. Has it been in the news at all lately?
I'm guessing this is some sort of 'novel' in-joke.
Cheers, mate!

Tell me what page it's on, and I'll go and have a look through J's bookshelf. He only has two books though. So maybe I'll have to wait a while.
Cheers, mate!

Yes... admissions are needed here.
I am guilty of that most heinous of crimes: the 'in' joke.
I seem to be doing it a bit lately, creating cartoons that only a select few will get, and alienating the rest (the 'BFG' cartoon a few weeks back a classic example).
This one's even more alienating than usual as it not only requires an understanding of the Harry Potterâ„¢ books, you need to have read last week's cartoon and its attached discussion.
I'm aware of this embarrassing problem and am going to take steps towards rectifying this.
To Mina, and to all who have never, nor intend to, read Harry Potterâ„¢ you have my sincerest apologies.
