I just flipped thru the beginnings of PoA again, and noted (or was
reminded) that Hermione's birthday is in September - which left me with
a question - is she 10 months older than, or 2 months younger than, Harry?
When is the normal cutoff day for schoolyears in the UK? Here in the US,
it's generally either August 31, September 30 or sometimes December 31,
but some people (like me) skip to the higher year (I have a January
birthday) - would it make more sense for her to be a good amount older,
or a little bit younger?
