I've just started re-reading it for the fifth time, so I'm only at the 
beginning, but here's one of my faves:

rons voice now joined the others'.
'What are we doing here? Has something gone wrong?'
'Oh, no, Ron' came Freds voice very sarcastically. 'No, this is 
exactly where we wanted to end up.'

and my absolute fave

'Just put them on, Archie, there's a good chap, you can't walk around 
like that, th eMuggle on the gate's already getting suspicious-'

'I bought this in a Muggle shop', said the old wizard stubbornly. 
'Muggles wear them.'

'Muggle WOMEN wear them, Archie, not the men, they wear THESE,' said 
the Ministry wizard, and he brandished the pinstriped trousers.

'I'm not putting them on,' said old Archie in indignation. 'I like a 
healthy breeze round my privates, thanks.'

I laugh so hard every time I read that one. Ah, thank you JKR!
