The British are coming

Apparently in preparation for the opening of the latest upcoming Harry Potter movie, Doug has taken to incorporating interesting British slang and accents into his vocabulary. For example, I have recently both "pinched" and "nicked" his wallet in a spate of money-begging at the checkout counter.

In addition, his efforts to imitate Mr. Dursley's pronunciation of the word "owls" have provided good exercise for his speaking muscles but not a solid enough rendition to merit an callback to appear in the final movie.

PS - this is SO something Joe would do! In fact, I probably shouldn't have just read it to him! (insert British comment of frustration here) Too late now

We are excited about Harry Potter too, but the accents aren't showing up yet...
