Just a small thought on this new theory, which is not intended to 
undermine it at all, but more a point of curiosity: why would two 
adults want to chew such a lot of bubblegum ?? Ok, they have been 
tortured, and are not in their right minds, but it seems a curious 
sort of sweet for them to choose. DD likes his sweets, but I can't 
remember any other incidence of adult wizards eating them in any 
quantity...

I have visions of them both laying in bed, side by side, blowing 
thousands of beautiful bubbles that drift around the ward ! Is there 
more to Droobles gum than we have been told, apart from the 
possibility that it has been tampered with in some way ? Perhaps it 
is a recognised soft drug in the WW, routinely given to mental 
patients to keep them quiet and easy to handle. It would fit with the 
somewhat gormless image that gum-chewing tends to convey.
