I did some crystal-gazing this morning and the orb showed me the
exact setting of the first chapter of OoP: Imagine a camera taking in
Harley Street, London, then slowing down and finally stopping at a
brass plaque saying:
Ethelbert & Heloise Granger
Dentists
Camera takes in Harley Street again, zooms at two black-haired men in
billowing black cloaks, coming from opposite ends of the street,
obviously heading for the same place (dentists): It's Severus and
Sirius, they have appointments at 10 (one with Mr., one with Mrs.
Granger) for the first whitening treatment of their yellow teeth.
Reluctantly, because they still don't like each other very much, they
enter and have to wait (in spite of being the first patients of the
day) one hour, sitting-which is even more bothering- on a love-seat,
as there's no ohter chair. As they don't want to talk, they read
magazines, silently wondering at the non-moving pictures.
When Sirius sees a pic of Camilla Parker-Bowles at Ascot, wearing a
most dreadful pink, lace-trimmed hat, he suddenly says: "Oh dear,
she's got a hat like mum's!" Severus, already VERY bored by Muggle
magazines, casts a short look and says. "Impossible, MY mother used
to wear hats like that!" As time goes by, they exchange childhood
memories and discover they're brothers. Their mother has put a Memory
Spell (obviously too weak) on Severus, before shoving him off into a
wizard orphanage. Tears, embraces, apologies, promises.......fade- out
OK, I'm going to have to nail my head to the floor, but I just liked
it
