Valky rode over on his mint vintage Nimbus and said:
"There is an apparently, confirmed, rumour that someone will finally
be able to use magic correctly in a future book, "just in time".
"This most likely applies to Seamus F, but could apply to Filch. I
don't know. Its just an interesting thing that relates to squibness.
"Can they eventually learn magic? At what point in a wizards life is
it confirmed in official or technical terms that he/she is a sqib."
So, I (Angie) have to pipe in with:
Why do you think Seamus, and not Neville? (Thinking of Neville's "I'm
practically a squib" remark.)
Hmmm - can a squib learn magic? My guess is no. I likened Filch's
correspondence course to one of those cheesy matchbook "learn to
draw" classes. I never received any hint that there was indeed any
value in it.
So, what did I miss?
Angie, who just last night learned how to pronounce Seamus.
