I'd forgotten about that.  Charlie would have to be 12 years older 
than HRH instead of ten.  That would mean they haven't won the 
quidditch cup since before Oliver and Percy have been at Hogwarts.  
I've been going with 11, but that line means it has to be 12. (If 
the last time they won was Charlie's seventh year, and it seems to 
be).  Thanks for the correction.
