The Edinburgh of J.K. Rowling → Harry Potter graffiti in the Gentlemen’s toilets of The Elephant House (21 George IV Bridge, Edinburgh) (x)

We used to paint them at the end of every Fringe festival, but I don’t think we’ve painted them for three years. After it was painted once, a note about who was in Dumbledore’s Army had three tallies next to it, by the end of the day it was at 83. We try to get rid of it from the mirrors. We’ve had toilet seats broken because people have been trying to write things on the ceiling. There’s no point spending like £5,000 to have them ruined again. A year ago I painted the boys’, it took me 14 hours and two nights to have it done, I had to do three undercoats and the following day it was covered again. – Elephant House manager
