Still crazy over Harry Potter

Since my last post re Harry Potter, I had finished the 3 PS2 games, 6 books and 1 movie.

Game review

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (PS2)
Pro : Loading time quite fast.
Con : Not that exciting as you can collect all the card easily and might even double/ triple your collection. You also have to go through some of the tasks again in order to collect all the challenge shields to increase your grade. I bit boring if you ask me.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret (PS2)
Pro : Out of these 3 game, I think this is the one worth playing cos the tasks are more exciting and the cards are not as easy to collect as Philosopher's stone. A bit more challenging.
Con : A long time to load between scenes.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (PS2)
Pro : You travel in group of 3 and can switch among Harry/ Ron and Hermione, each of the character have their own speciality.
Con : When you finished your task and wanted to go exploring, the other characters will remind you that they are tired and want to rest. Very annoying as they kept repeating this.

If you want to play just one, I suggest Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret.

1st to 4th books in Deluxe set

5th book - Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix

6th book - Harry Potter and the Half blood Prince

All very interesting and easy for reading. Took me less than 2 months to finish all the 6 books. The 5th book is the funniest of all and the 6th book is very serious. Now I can't wait for the 7th and last book to be out (which will be 7 July 2007).

The above image are the actual games/ books I possess.

Car was hit by......

a BUS!!!

Sam picked me up at train station and after going to Homerton College, we were driving along East Road heading back home. As usual, East Road is packed with cars at this rush hour (about 6pm). We passed the traffic light but came to a stop shortly after (we were the last car). A bus (red double decker bus) travelling on the opposite direction was trying to turn right but our car was blocking his way. He stopped and then started to moved forward (thinking he can pass it) but BANG!!, he hit our car.

It was quite a shock, we did realise that he was very close but didn't think that he would still moved on. Sam got off the car and took down his details, I meanwhile saw a man who had witness the incident and requested to take down his details (as a witness).

We tried to see the damage done to the car when we were home and noted that the paint on the rear side of the car (driver side) had come off. It was too dark, we look at it again tomorrow morning and take some pictures. Hopefully, the bus company insurer will cover this.
