I've never heard this one either, but I like it!

Am I the only person that assumed that was where Hagrid (and Mme Maxime) 
were going that they couldn't talk about at the end of GoF (not this place, 
but to see the giants living under moutains in remote areas of Europe? 
Dumbledore earlier had said (to Fudge, I'm fairly certain) that V. was 
coming back, and they needed to look for allies *now*- including among the 
giants who had been sent away from England. I would go look in my book, but 
that would mean moving the dog off my lap.

On that subject, do ya'll think we'll see Hagrid back in time for the new 
school year if that turns out to be true? Will we see 'Olympe' again?
