Grizzled gray hair.  I've just seen another fleeting commonality 
between characters.  Seems like JKR likes to do this, drop these 
common traits in what seems mundane parts of the story that you go 
back and say why didn't I see it before?  In Dudley Demented chapter 
of OOTP p19 of the US version:

"Mrs. Figg, their batty old neighbor, came panting into sight.  Her 
grizzled gray hair was escaping from its hairnet"

Then two chapters later in The Advance Guard chapter on p47 it says:
"Mad-Eye Moody, who had long grizzled gray hair"

Allistar and Arebella - the batty ol' Moody twins.  Maybe that's why 
Mrs. Figg knows Dumbledore so well?  Would make her a very trusted 
member of the Order.  With a auror for a brother, it would explain 
why she knows so much about the wizard world.

Wotcha think?
