Kirsty:
PoA page 256 (UK hardback):
"...did you realise that the Boggart changed into
the moon when it saw me?" [Lupin asking how
Hermione worked out he was a werewolf]

So unless this is deceptive!Lupin at work (and I
tend to take characters at face value, naive I
know but these are supposed to be childrens'
books to some extent), it's not a prophecy orb.

On DD's delay once he'd gone to London in PS/SS:
Aberdeen is some 550 miles north of London (as
the thestral flies), so even though a flight on
an aeroplane is barely 1 1/2 hours, it indeed
took time -- and we've no comparison of speed of
thestrals/planes.
