Camilla and Hogwarts

Today was fascinating. First, I avoided being attacked by seagulls because I did not walk down the sidewalks with food in my hand (they will take it from you). Second, I realized that the Chancellor of the University of Aberdeen is HRH The Duchess of Rothesay, also known as Camilla, Prince Charles' wife. Third, I learned that a government issued treasury bond in Scotland is called a "gilt" (I had no idea what they were discussing in the investment committee meeting). Finally, I met a lovely young law student who lived in Texas and decided to attend law school here because it takes 4 years total, not 7 like in the United States. She is a student ambassador for the University and told me she loves it here because she "feels like she's going to university on the Harry Potter Hogwarts set, but it's actually real here...."
