OOP: Chapter 1 - Dudley's Bullying

[ameliagoldfeesh]

Hi,

First off- loved the book, but loved most of the parts and 
developments everyone else did so I'm not going to go on about it 
yet.

However, when I read the first chapter I was certaint that JKR was 
going to set us up to meet a new first year on the Hogwarts Express.

Harry asks Dudley who he has been beating up:  "Another 10 year 
old?  I know you did Mark Evans two nights ago--"

I thought Harry might meet some distant branch of his mother's 
family that Petunia had kept him from. But no...

the upheavals in the  fanfic world and on HPFGU.  *Unfogging the 
Inner Eye I see another bully thread in the future*)
