Sweet!! A friend my wife lost to ALS was gifted a trip to NZ on Peter
Jacksons budget and was an extra in the hobbit. They did some creative
filming to hid her wheelchair.  There was an interview with Martin
Freeman at the end of the DVD version (?) where he refers to a woman in
a wheelchair being in the crowd scene. She was thrilled to be there and
see everything. Her husband told us about the helicopter tour they got
around the area and the geology was jaw-dropping. Sadly, the ALS friend
had been unable to speak for nearly two years at that time but the
pictures showed the sparkle in her eyes.
I've been a secret goblins fan for years but I tend to sit on the
Hogwarts team side at the locals. :-)

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
