Take care, Sir! Or it will be wet towels at dawn! True Brit here!
It's not just the Brooklyn Bridge, there was that misguided American
who bought London Bridge thinking it was Tower Bridge. Now
re-erected in Utah, I think.
I don't take any of DD's statements at face value. This one falls into
the same category as all the rest.
Consider,
The implications of this statement are either:
1. Lily loved Harry more than any other mother loved her child, *ever*
so providing unique protection, or
2. Every child is so protected by mother love.
Which is patently rubbish.
Which one do you choose?
(Advice: Not the first, or at least not publicly because the posters
who are mothers are liable to rip your head off.)
Also, since that little chat, DD has admitted that he did not think
Harry was ready for the truth at that age and so lied or at least
very strongly and deliberately misled him. Are you now certain
that the whole truth has now been revealed? I'm not.
