Hiya Amanda, =)

Thanks for explaining that.  That's exactly how I see it as a 
straight line.  Although the loops and teeny person wasn't in my
picture lol.  Neverless, when I say "first time" what I meant
was when the teeny person passed the spot where the thread 
overlaps ... before going round the loop.  How did Harry get
pass the Dementors before going on the loop to cast the spell.

Did I make your brain go loopy now?? lol
