:wub: Hello :wub:
I agree with ‘estel’ that Harry would know if his parents were buried in Hogwarts, but it brings up an interesting question of ‘Where are Harry’s Parents actually buried?’ I do not believe, however, that the graveyard was a ‘clumsy insertion’ as estel puts it. I think with the size of the grounds of Hogwarts it’s entirely plausible there was an area that hadn’t been covered by Harry. The trio probably just believed that there was no point in going there, however I can’t imagine who would be buried at a school apart from former headmasters/mistresses. Why would Sir Nick be buried there or any of the ghosts? Yet if there was a good reason I think it would be a good idea. Just because the teachers wouldn’t permit a war at Hogwarts doesn’t mean it wouldn’t happen. There is no doubt that the tension would be high between the Slytherins and Gryffindors, but who says that all Slytherins are bad. It’s not fair to say that because Harry was almost put into Slytherin, but it wouldn’t make him a bad person. Getting back to the point, there could be secret wars and in the middle of a big battle the ever growing (and hopefully continuing) DA would no doubt somehow be involved. I know it's going to be released on July 16th and I will be counting down the days along with other readers! :wub: Chloé :wub: |

I don't believe that all Slytherin's are bad either. What Hagrid did say is that there wasn't a witch/wizard who didn't go bad that wasn't a Slytherin. ( ok, I don't know if that is an exact quote) Yet I'm not sure what Pettigrew's house was, so if he were a Gryffindor, then what Hagrid said was wrong.

I was just wonderin bout something. Do you think it possible that Dumbledore good be Lily's Father? Ive forgotten if it ever says in the books what colour Dumbledore's eyes are? :bigeyes:
Now i am about to tell you who i think the Half-Blood prince could be. In the 4th book, GoF, at the beginning its set in Little Hanglington and the riddle family are dead. they say there were three people in the family, i father, and mother, and boy. Frank Bryce who they questioned said he only saw one person around that day and that was a teenage boy with a white face. I this boy he is describing is tom riddle. The family that were killed could have been his, uncle, aunt and cousin. They would then probably be half-bloods aswell. i think the boy who was found dead along with his mother and father, the boy could be the half-blood prince? who says the half-blood prince cant be a ghost? :unsure: |

No one will get the book until midnight GMT (England time). Then on the midnight hours after that. So, the US time is behind England. Therefore, those in England will get it prior to the US. GMT is five hours before ET, six hours before CT, and eight hours before PT. Is the other time mountain? I think it's mountain. . . anyway, it'd be seven hours before mountain. So, if you live in Alabama, then you'd get the book six hours after England.
Dumbledore's eyes are blue. ('twinkling blue eyes') The boy who was killed with the Riddle parents, was Tom Riddle's father - his name was Tom Riddle as well. |

That means that the He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named's father, (tom riddle the 1st) was killed while he was a young boy. That means that tom riddle the 2nd, (He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named) could not have been born?help me, im really confused!!! |

Tom Marvolo Riddle (Voldemort) found his father with his father's parents when he was a teenager. He then killed his father and grandparents. At the time, his father was grown up and his grandparents were elderly.
