* Do you believe in ghosts? Why or why not?

Um...Pass.
Well, I think people witness them. But what they are...
I guess I do believe that some kind of imprint of emotional events of the 
past might get recorded, as it were, in various places. And I've seen some pretty 
convincing evidence of ghosts. But I've never realy witnessed anything myself 
and the idea of becoming a spirit, trapped on earth just freaks me out, so I 
try not to believe in them.

* What things about you often come as a surprise to others?

Nothing. I'm very boring.
If I'm feeling vain, I'd say my age.

* Provide the etymology of your signature/handle/email address. In
other words, how and why did you choose the name you use on the
HPfGU lists.

Do I have to?

Eloise was a desperate choice as I realised I wanted to post something and 
didn't want to use my own name in this *vast* group of about 4000(!) members. It 
was a self effacing sort of Potterverse name. The surname came later whan I 
decided to create an email address for HPfGU use and relates to TBAY activities 
I used to get up to.

* Whose signature/handle/email address on the HPfGU boards {a} would
you like to steal or {b} intrigues you?

Ooh!

Well, I've always thought that Constance Vigilance was a cool name and then 
of course, there's my good friend Porphyria.
There are so many great handles out there. I wish I had the originality.


* Describe your ultimate Halloween costume.

Not sure I can at short ntice. I'm a Brit. Don't go in for such things.

* If you lived in the Potterverse, who would you be, and what would
you do for a living?

Well, that would be telling, wouldn't it?
But it wouldn't be far from a certain dungeon...

* What would you see in the Mirror of Erised?
See above.

* What shape would a boggart take, if you chance upon one?

That is a very good question and one that has exercised me in the past.
As a mother, I think there's only one (or one of four) things it could be. 
I'd rather not think about it and how on earth you would make it funny, I don't 
know.

* What happy memory will you rely upon, if you are to conjure up a
Patronus?

Again, I think it would have to be children. Probably the things my youngest 
does which make me laugh.

* What form might your Patronus take?

A horse

* What might your animagus form be?

A hedgehog!
