Talking about Molly's boggart reminded me of one thing that bugs me a 
little - the fact that I can't distinguish Fred and George. I've tried 
to see differences in their personalities but *most* of the time their 
reactions are similar or even identical. When Molly sees their 
boggart, there is one boggart for both twins but separate boggarts for 
the other children.

Racking my brains for differences, the only ones I can think of are 
that Fred takes Angelina to the Yule Ball, but I can't find mention of 
George's date (but I'm probably being thick!) and, to my mind, Geroge 
seems a little less serious in tone than Fred sometimes (but that may 
be my imagination).

I worry that Fred'n'George are one character with two bodies... do you 
think JKR will finally distinguish one from the other?
