Social Roundup: Ice Water and DragonCon

by Claire Furner · August 31, 2014

Another week has come and gone, meaning a new round of ALS ice bucket challenges have appeared.

So @TomFelton already nailed his. Good lad. As has @MrAnthonyLewis. Just awaiting @editbot_lewis n @nrushfirth. Oh and thanks @JasonDavo13!

— Matthew Lewis (@Mattdavelewis) August 27, 2014

Guess we’re just going to have to wait for Rupert’s, but it seems like Emma has bailed!

We didn’t get soaked enough during #Noah Doug!? Just donated to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis http://t.co/JfPqjw18Ou pic.twitter.com/Tq4bnleqVK — Emma Watson (@EmWatson) August 29, 2014

For a full roundup of Potter related ice bucket challenges, check out our post here.

All quiet on Radcliffe’s Google front this week, apart from this cracking new trailer.


Regular convention pals, Scarlett and Evanna headed to DragonCon.

Managed to make it to the Falling skies panel with @drew_roy and @CunninghamColin. Great start to @DragonCon!#fallingskies — Scarlett Byrne (@ScarleyByrne) August 29, 2014

Meanwhile back home, Bertie takes a rather hipster approach to nature.

Evanna continues the cat loving.

I’ve started following individual cats’ instagrams & saving their pictures & is there a rehab for premature Cat Ladyness?? I AM NOT READY — Evanna Lynch (@Evy_Lynch) August 25, 2014


“@amaleachininis: Find the puff! @Evy_Lynch http://t.co/s3zRkLmVhQ” ohhh heyyy I see you there working the sphinx pose, Lil Puff!!

— Evanna Lynch (@Evy_Lynch) August 29, 2014

And about time too, Afshan!

Started to watch Game of Thrones today. Oh dear, I can see a new addiction beginning. #GOT — Afshan Azad (@afshan_azad) August 29, 2014

Love seeing all my HP family on #GOT! Familiar faces @NatTenaLady and my fave David Bradley gracing my screen right now!#yay

— Afshan Azad (@afshan_azad) August 30, 2014

One never stops learning.

To close, who is ready to go back to school tomorrow with Bloomsbury’s new Potter editions?

Even Kings Cross security are taking Harry Potter Book Selfie. #HarryPotterBookSelfie pic.twitter.com/ipO5xys4o8 — Ian Lamb (@IanLamb1) August 30, 2014

MuggleNet receives JKR Fansite Award
Recurs yearly

2004

It’s high time I paid homage to the mighty MuggleNet. Where to start? I love the design, (I currently favour the ‘Dementor’ layout), the polls (I actually voted in the ‘Who’s the Half-Blood Prince?’ one), the pretty-much-exhaustive information on all books and films, the wonderful editorials (more insight there than in several companion volumes I shall not name), 101 Ways to Annoy Lord Voldemort (made me laugh aloud), the Wall of Shame (nearly as funny as some of the stuff I get)… pretty much everything. Webmaster Emerson, Eric, Jamie, Damon, Ben, Matthew, Rachel, Jaymz and Sharon, I salute you.

“I wonder how you expect to gain an idea of my usual teaching methods if you continue to interrupt me? You see, I do not generally permit people to talk when I am talking.”
