"When DD and H relived the memory of LV wanting the job of DADA teacher,
(or just checking out the Founder's goodies in DD's office) was that
the year before Harry started at Hogwarts? I'm SURE that the twins had
said that no-one had kept the DADA job for more than a year since they
had been at school yet this was after LV had been defeated at Godric's
Hollow! I cannot even remember which book it is in let alone remember
the quote - any help? I'm thinking I'm going mad here!!! "
Juli said: " Hi, I'm thinking LV came to Hogwarts for a job about 20 or 25 years
ago. It was shrotly after leaving Hogwarts and traveling the world.
Dumbledore was a bit younger, LV didn't have snake eyes or anything,
he was still human.
The twins are only 2 years older than Harry, so they started Hogwarts
when Harry was 9!, LV had already been part vanquished 8 years ago.
The curse on the DADA job was long before their time, even before the
Marauders, me thinks."
DD said 10 years had elapsed between the Hokey house-elf memory and LV showing up to request the DADA job. It is still a lot of years before Harry arrives at Hogwarts. It has been years since they could keep a DADA teacher. Wonder what happened to the rest of them...we only know from Quirrell onwards...

Jellocat asked "What if THAT'S the horcrux necklace and not the one we all think is at
Grimmauld Place? Or could it be another one? At least Harry could afford to
buy it..."
That necklace was the cursed opal necklace in the package Katie Bell was given. "And in any case, I asked Borgin about the necklace, don't you remember...I saw it there." - Hermione, HBP pg 239 (Can ed)
