Geoff:
Taking the opposite view, I have always taken a crumb of comfort from:

'In years to come, Harry woudl never quite remember how he had 
managed to get through his exams when he half expected Voldemort to 
come bursting through the door ar any moment.'

(PS "Through the Trapdoor" p.191 UK edition)

It gives the feel of looking back and reminiscing well after the 
event.

To misquote a famous literary young lady,
Cos if Harry dies, I shall scream and scream and scream until I'm 
sick. And I can you know....
