Yup. Still pretty dire ‘prog rock’ lines.
His mention of ‘I like to warm my bones beside the fire’ is topped, in naffness for me by lines about ‘hot buttered crumpettes by the fire’ by the lyric writer and singer of the band of a friend of mine.
I got into trouble with my pal by describing the lyrics on the album as ‘sub Pink Floyd’. Umbridge was taken … 
Dolores? 
Who she?
Dolores Umbridge, High Inquisitor from the Ministry of Magic (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix). Clearly you are not a “Potterhead”
More likely to be this lot:
Clearly you are not a “Potterhead”
No I’m not, in spades. I read a page or 3 of the first book and thought the quality of the writing poor.
Great films can be made from duff books but, not having children, the witches and wizards genre of books and films are not I.
There was a reason, when the first book was published, that adults reading it on London underground kept it in a paper bag.
On a flight from Singapore to LHR - 13 hrs - I watched all the films until I finally gave in and opened the Potter film. This successfully got me off to a fitful doze …
One aspect of what bits of the film I did see was periodically having the girl as ‘Deus ex machina’, explaining the plot or the bits the script had missed out.
I did get through ‘Lord of the Rings’ but then anyone would, doing the 22:00 - 08:00 shift at High Brough Moor Shell station, on the A1 just south of Scotch Corner.
When I tried it again some years later I was bored stiff in the first chapter.
Now that that does seem grim and I certainly don’t mean Grimm.
On the subject of grim and the A1, I used to commute on the A66/A1 from Cumbria to lecture at York - it could be a brutal journey in winter, particularly if returning after a day of lecturing, the A66 gates were closed due to snow and I had to drive up to N/c then across to Carlisle on the A69 and then down the M6
Is that a little like having feet of clay?
That might depend on whether or not he called the kettle ‘Black’.
Or possibly Artemis.
