>>>We know the French resistance cells during WWII relied heavily on coded messages and ingenious ways of communicating those messages. Could the gum wrappers be analogous to some of their methods?>>>>>>>>

When I first read this I wondered WHY they would need to pass information in this manner. But then I got thinking (*always* a bad sign!!) and thought specifically about Alice and Frank. They are trapped in their own minds and in the locked ward in St Mungo's, what if they (or at least Alice) feels that there is a dangerous element in said ward. Perhaps she thinks that one of the members of staff is trying to keep them from recovering! That they are kept in a state of 'insaneness' to stop them spilling the beans about something they know. Perhaps it's someone using the imperius curse and Alice is, at last, fighting it. We *know* that Bode died there, what if this wasn't an accident? She may be using the wrappers as a means of 'resistance' communication, we don't know as Neville just puts it in his pocket and doesn't read them!!!
Cuckoos? I think one's just flown over my nest!!
