Asian_lovr2:

Slight shift in the subject- I wonder if Harry is going to be too
fussed about using magic outside of school. It it was me, modest as I
am, I would still feel a bit relaxed about it. Sort of a... screw them
if the don't like it, let them try and deal with Voldemort without me.

Given the Harry is attacked or threatened in one form or another in
each book, and has now been attacked at Privet Drive, I think he is
going take the attitude that the Ministry has a lot more important
things to worry about than Harry repairing a mirror, or illuminating
his wand, or more importantly, practicing a few Defense Spells. 

Given that he is under direct threat from an 'outed' Voldemort, I
don't think Harry can afford to take a couple month off from
practicing defense spells. Nor can Hermoine, Ron, or Neville for that
matter.

Just a thought.
