>>> I think this is a question of semantics isn't it? I think what 
Chris means is that there is a "relationship" between Harry and 
another person rather than them being "relations". As we have 
said, Sirius is not a blood relation of Harry although being a 
godfather should imply a close relationship  which brings him near 
to being a relation if you take my point.<<<
  
SSSusan again:
>> So do you see my point, Geoff?  That we're really not a whole lot 
nearer to figuring anything out from this pattern if the only clue 
is "a person with a relationship to Harry".  I had thought maybe 
Chrisp was thinking of something quite specific when he 
wrote "related to Harry", which is why I went fishing for 
clarification in the first place.  I wasn't arguing semantics; I 
was trying to find out what Chrisp had in mind.
Does that clarify?<<

SSSusan:
Okay, let's play the game. :-)  With that definition, probably the 
entire Weasley clan, Hermione, the Dursleys, Lupin, Hagrid, and DD.  
Possibly Neville.  

Who do you think?

And, chrisp, step in here any time and tell us if we're way off 
course!
