Carolyn:
A footnote to this discussion - you two know that JKR has confirmed 
that Peter did take Voldie's wand, and apparently hid it? See posts 
111434, 111437 and 111473 for speculation on how and what happened. 

It would appear Peter was not only wearing his own robes when he 
transformed, but was also carrying Voldie's *and* a spare, bloody 
robe to leave on the ground. It also seems he transformed holding his 
own wand and Voldie's. Suppose it can be done..unless he did leave 
all the gear with accomplice!Fudge. 

I've always questioned how he could simultaneously blow a huge hole 
in the ground and cut his finger off with his hands behind his back. 
Mad Eye wasn't joking when he said to Harry: 'Better wizards than you 
have lost buttocks, you know!'
