[HPforGrownups] Re: Ginny inconsistancy?

However, let's not forget our own early childhood
times, since I am the younger sister, I know I
"remember" things from my childhood, not from my own
memory, but from my family talking about it, and since
going to Hogwarts is such Weasley family event Ginny
probably has always wanted to go just like her older
brothers.  Plus, since Ginny seems to look up to Bill
the most, proof when she stands up for Bill and his
earing and his long hair (GoF... I don't have my books
w/ me right now, don't know the quote.)  If Ginny just
remembers everybody talking about Hogwarts, she will
think she remembers Bill going.  But I do feel it is a
FLINT, but I have to argue the other side, because I
like to... :)

Sorry so long getting back to this, but life (as
usual) is mucho busy... working 12 to 15 hrs of
overtime and going to school....
