Geoff:
I have to agree with you. It must be a couple of years or so ago, I wrote 
on Main that I wasn't a fan of Harry and Ginny getting together. i've never 
liked her as a character and felt that she was becoming rather pushy and 
a bit like her mother. Molly is a great person but inclined to be a control 
freak when it comes to her (extended) family.

Again, I didn't like the epilogue which suggested that Harry had got married 
not too far after the events of DH. I think he should have had a bit more "free" 
time before getting tied down by family life. I think this stems from the fact 
that I have often felt a kinship with Harry over his teen years. I grew up in a 
time when a two-thirds of UK schools were single sex and if you were  keen 
on doing well in education, there wasn't a lot of space for girls. Like Harry, I 
had a Yule Ball experience which didn't help my confidence and  I finally married 
when I was 31. 

But that's just one  man's experience, to misquote Steve.
