Bloodraine:
so is it all relative to UK time, then?

So Australia don't get theirs 12 hours early or something lmfao

The UK will still get the books like 9 hours before people in North America.
I think. :/

Oh Hell no Sad

I think you guys are posting like 4 hours before me, but I don't think 9.

England is five hours ahead of anywhere in the United States where we use Eastern Standard TIme. Thus, it's six hours in Central Time, seven in Mountain Time, and eight hours in Pacific Time.

So, if any of you folks can finish the book in five hours, don't go posting away and ruining it for us Yankees.

It's definitely more than four hours.

I'm in the Pacific time zone; I was off by an hour. Close enough. XD

They're already queueing outside Waterstones just off Piccadilly Circus. Nutters; about 10-15 of them. Some girl with the most awesome luminous pink hair's at the very front XD

I am always there for Midnight, this year I have to work on Sat, but I am thinking of pulling a sicky. Last year I got drunk waiting in line, me and my friends had a laugh. I got myself sober when I got home at about 1am (cue the tea) and I read it, and I was finished by Saturday afternoon.

But wtf, it's two days away.

I wouldn't like up for a book, just because I'll get there maybe an hour before they go on sale, if that, and I'll get it maybe half an hour after them, and I'll probably finish it before them, too. It's not worth it lining up for two days for, i mean, you're going to get it at some point, aren't you?

So I'm confused, does it go on sale at midnight, UK time everywhere but for the people in the US, where it goes on sale midnight their time?

Cause I know it goes on sale at 9.01 Saturday morning here, so that's midnight UK time.

GREAT NEWS! Ahbrow

Because I'm now moved back in with my parents, I now can use them as cauffeurs again, and my dad is not only agreeing to go to the Midnight Grab (Or the Six O'clock Grab as it's know here.) but he's also an avid stamp collector and may pre-order the Harry Potter stamps as well! OMGyes

If we're the first people in line, we get a golden copy of the book! *Dies from happiness.*

If I'm one of the first 200 walk-in customers, we get the book for only 590 baht rather than 1,050! Mr. Green

I've got my glittery witches hat and glittery makeup. I also found a broomstick which might come in handy if i need to beat children out the way to the front of the line.

OH AND MY NIECES WANT TO COME. so I now have kiddies to take which gives me an excuse to act like i'm 7.
