This starts on page 588-US version, and is 3/4 of the way down the 
page.  I cannot see anything either, but that is normal for me, LOL!  
However, the next paragraph talks about Harry's next Occlumency 
lesson and Snape questions Harry about a memory he spied whilst 
invading Harry's brain.  The memory of a man kneeling in a darkened 
room.  Snape asks Harry how that man and room came to be in his 
(Harry's) head.  I wish they would have noted exactly what was 
changed or deleted!
Lynnette, who thinks Snape IS a good guy, even if he is not a NICE 
guy!


Sherrie here:

According to Mugglenet.com, the paragraph missing from the UK audiobook is:

'Harry was so angry with her he didn't talk to her for the rest of the day, 
which proved to be another bad one. When people were not discussing the escaped 
Death Eaters in the corridors, they were laughing at Gryffindor's abysmal 
performance in their match against Hufflepuff; the slytherins were singing 
"Weasley is our king" so loudly and frequently that by sundown Filch had banned it 
out of the corridors out of sheer irritation.'


Apparently, this deletion was at the request of JKR - why, I've no more clue 
than you.  Either there's an error in it - or there's something in it that, 
maybe, gives more away than she intended...
