I knew I'd come across one the other day, but I couldn't remember what it 
was. Sometimes I make Neville look look Mr Memory!

In Privet Drive, Dumbledore explains that he wouldn't do anything about 
Harry's scar, even if he could, as scars have a habit of coming in useful. He 
immediately trivialises the remark by talking about the one above his (?) 
left knee which is a perfect map of the London Underground.

These, I think *may* be forshadowings.

As I've said before, Dumbledore's 'I would trust Hagrid with my life' sends a 
little bit of a shiver down my spine.

Then Snape brings up the subject of wolfsbane in the first potions lesson. 
What's the betting that the sleep of living death turns up at some point, or 
the potion that stoppers death?
