It sounds like you are going to have a fun time with only yourself to please (most of the time) you can do what you want when you want! Jealous? Me? Not at all!
I hope you have a fab trip.

Yayy! Looking forward to this. We are off to universal for part of our trip in October so It’ll be nice to hear all about your food fancies. We really enjoyed Cowfish last time and fully expect to do Vivo Italian Kitchen in October. It was a toss up last time you see, so it’ll be fab to hear your thoughts on Vivo.
Read you soon. Kat 😃

Yes please do leave some snacks, especially the elusive twisted potato which I’ve still never seen ‘in the flesh’. You would not like to meet a Hangry Porker
![]() Well I hope we see you again after reading the pre-trip of the last one ![]() ![]() Ooh lucky for you too ![]() Will be nice to go to things like the Horror Make Up show that my family tend to refuse. And Cinnabon for breakfast at least once ![]() Was so set on Vivo last time then switched it twice, ending up in Bice at the Portofino which was well overpriced. Not making that mistake again! Can’t wait ![]() ![]() I’ll try to not get too distracted by the Potter fan fiction ![]() ![]() ![]() Thank you, I was tempted to further embellish with Hairy Porker but it’s too good a nickname for the other pupils to call him. Philosophers Scone works better with a southern accent than a northern one mind ![]() Thanks all for reading this nonsense ![]() Edited at 10:03 PM. |

How exciting, it's a bit of a dream of mine to have some solo time in the parks. Hope you're enjoying the planning.

I have to admit because its Universal and because I only have myself to worry about I'm doing no planning beyond the list of restaurants in the first post. And loving it I have to say

Chapter 2 - Sorted Harry logged onto the portal with a simple spell (windosium leviosa as any wizards reading will know) and waited for the livestream to start. These days the sorting of students for the Universal School of Gluttony was done by a dancing paperclip. They used to pull names out of a hat in a live show but it was done on a screen now. No-one really knew why. Excited to find out what house he would be placed in, Harry considered all the options. Probably they wouldn’t put him with the hungry kids in Cabana or the too cool for school brigade in Hard Rock House. Royal Pacific was a bit of a meh option, not really known for anything. No, it was Portofino House that he wanted. That’s where a Porker could achieve greatness! The animated paperclip was making a bit of a meal of the announcements, dancing all over the shop as one by one it read out each student’s name and their house. It took forever to get from the first student; Neville Allsorts all the way down to the P’s. ![]() with an infuriating raise of eyebrows it shouldn’t possess Harry wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cry. First of all, the good news - Royal Pacific gave him early access to breakfast in Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley. This was a MAJOR perk that those poor souls in Cabana House could only dream of. But the other two houses had the same perk. OK so he had no interest in Hard Rock House. Students there were skinny wretches rumoured to survive only on sherbet and butterbeer. That didn’t appeal. But Harry really wanted to join the fine diners of Portofino House, students there could choose from five (5!) Italian restaurants. People said Portofino students were a bit snooty or even downright evil. But damn it, pasta, gnocchi ala gorgonzola and all manner of fine dining to boot meant Harry would have been prepared to put up with a few stuck up brats. “How’d you like Royal Pacific House, Porker? At least we won’t have your sweaty mitts pawing at the breakfast lobster.” The shrill voice through the speaker disturbed Harry from his hunger pangs (breakfast was over an hour ago). No way was breakfast lobster a thing. At least he hoped not. He eyed up his accuser, Draco Millefeuille. Draco was Portofino House to the core and a nemesis of his since primary school. Also on the screen was his usual sidekick Crab, a nasty lump you did not want to tangle with. “Shut up Draco” he replied to the thin, blond boy. “And stop killing me in Fortnite, I know you’ve got cheats on your account, Ron Wotsit told me.” “Do not!” said Draco. “Your as slow in the game as in rl you big...Hairy Porker.” Hardly a great insult, Harry thought and in no way original. Crab’s cruel laughter rang in his ears as he closed the browser window. ![]() Hey! That was my gig
