And... I think Sirius *was* pureblood. I think he lived next door, if 
not same building to Potters'. Sirius and James were friends and 
bloodbrothers. Sirius may never have known his father, and found 
James' father as father-figure.

I think the two, Sirius and James may have considered it *fun* to go 
for a Muggle survival expedition into the woods! (Besides, they 
weren't allowed to do magic outside Hogwarts) - so, they go hiking... 
Old Potter may have shown them how! I don't like to think that 
original use for Invisibility Cloak was for stealing but for hunting 
i.e. ducks. They'd want to remain unseen by the prey... And Old 
Potter always left his wand home...
