Thanks for your input. As a Yankee who hasn't even left Florida
much, I don't know much about Welsh pride. I've heard about Scottish
pride...and Irish pride is rather well known...but I don't know who
else from whatever region is in question would or wouldn't "blast" me
otherwise...well, at this point I don't but maybe that will change.
So how do Harry's "Welsh" qualities show up in the Canon, if at all?
I would appreciate learning something about this.
BTW, I have been told through a private email that work has indeed
been done on Harry Potter's astrological background before...on this
site. If this is indeed the case, I will look up the old messages
that someone referred me to...thanks.
