Hello Vivian,
Thank you for replying, I appreciate that! There's been a couple of
responses, which has really surprised me. What a friendly group this is! I'm
relieved it's not just me who finds the time-crux a little bewildring - and I am
pleased that you mentioned the role of Dumbledore. If JKR had worked out
his contribution, I could sleep easier at night! Ha ha. I love those time paradox
scenarios, because the actual answer always remains elusive due to so many
potential answers being right... or wrong.
Sometimes a writer tries to tackle them by suggesting theories, rather than
leaving them for readers/viewers to wonder about (or miss completely). Have
you read The Guardian Of Time? That's what got me started on all this Time
Line theorising - there are whole sections intended to 'help' but nobody
understands them even in the book. I love to laugh without being made to feel
foolish at my own intelectual limitations!
I mentioned this bit to the other people who replied to me, so please don't feel
as if I'm being lazy - if I had read yours first, I would have typed this out first
for you, and copied it for the other people! See my message
