Harry Potter Midnight Release in Edinburgh

I got this info from the Leaky Lounge and will confirm it asap. Gotta get my book pre-ordered. Wouldn't that be sad if they sold out and I 'd gone all that way and wound up without a book to read!

"I received the following information from Waterstones on Princes Street Edn.:
* The front of the shop will be made to appear as the wall into Diagon Alley, which will be pulled away at midnight to reveal the book!
* We will have sweets of various persuasions to mimic the sweets in the book.
* All the staff are dressing up as various characters.
* We are looking into having a private photographer come in so that people can have souvenir pictures taken. If we do this, they will be presented in nice cards with "I was at the launch of the last Harry Potter" (something like that).
* The till and surrounds will be turned into Hogwarts."

How cool! I've never been to a release party - I hope it's fun!
