Carol:
First, interesting observations on the safety of Hogwarts. I'm not
sure what to say there, except that I'm pretty sure that Snape is
keeping an eye on Harry. I'll have to think about that one.

But as to DD's statement that Harry has no blood relations other than
Petunia. As I've said before, Lily's parents were Muggles who could
have Muggle relatives that DD would not be aware of. Nor would he be
aware of any magical children those Muggle relatives might have if
they were under eleven years old. But I'm pretty sure that a blood
relative of Harry's will show up at Hogwarts in Book 6--a supposed
Muggle boy named Mark Evans who will be Harry's second cousin or
something along those lines.

I'm not saying that Dumbledore lies--only that he doesn't know everything.

Carol (who also thinks that Mark Evans will have green eyes)
