sadly, jammi, i think not much is left but where harry got his glasses, about his eyes, and parseltongue. so. dursley's bought glasses, the eyes may come into play soon, and yes, intro for parseltongue (coupled with a laugh) oh, and i appriciate that warm, heartfelt, completely true compliment. HA!

jammi567 · 07-08-2006, 05:52 PM

feel free to add any questions of yor own, because we seem to have run out of them.

durinsbane2244 · 07-08-2006, 05:53 PM

yes indeed. i've noticed. that's why i said such up over yonder^!

hm...*goes off to get book*

jammi567 · 07-10-2006, 04:44 AM

so durinsbane, thought of any yet?

jammi567 · 07-10-2006, 07:51 AM

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, i've just thought of a question: how does harry know when his birthday is? because i'm sure the dursleys wouldn't tell him to make him happy.

durinsbane2244 · 07-10-2006, 12:10 PM

well, for one thing, i doubt even they're that cruel, and also, if they want to be so "normal", "normal" kids know their birthdays...

jammi567 · 07-10-2006, 12:34 PM

very good point.

durinsbane2244 · 07-10-2006, 12:35 PM

i thought so.

sun-star · 07-10-2006, 12:38 PM

The Dursleys would have to tell Harry his birthdate for practical reasons - he couldn't start school without it, for example.

jammi567 · 07-10-2006, 12:39 PM

*total silence as the clock ticks loudly, as someone else, for once, thinks up a new question*

Lizra · 07-12-2006, 07:34 AM

The only question I have is "I wonder why the Dursleys are so unimportant to the latest books....will they make a *comeback* of sorts for the final book?....I vote maybe.....

It may be through the school systems. Schools normally request for a date of birth for their records and probably to check and see if the required vacinations have been received by the appropriate dates.

Probably due to the fact that more and more "Action" takes place away from the Dursleys house.

And also the fact that they're becoming less and less important to the story as a whole.

No....I don't think so, too much fat

......I still want more drama from Petunia though. Some sister anquish would be good. Lets bring back some pain from the past to really get Harry's juices flowing......
