If he hadn't carried on with the unicorns, I bet those who don't like Hagrid would have criticised him for not carrying on with such a popular topic!

I've been listening to CoS again, and one thing has struck me. The basilisk is described as being "thick as an oak trunk", right? Well... how big *are* the pipes at Hogwarts? and how did the basilisk come out of the pipes and Petrify people? Moaning Myrtle is logical - she died in the bathroom - and so is Mrs Norris (corridor outside the bathroom) but how did it manage to get in to Petrify the others? Were they all attacked in the same corridor? - I can't find any mention of this in canon.
Ideas?
