Geoff:
But in the real world, soldiers on active duty have time to relax and 
unwind.

They can't be concentrating on Voldemort and the war every hour of 
every day.

Changing the subject, correct me if I'm wrong but I think that Steve, 
in mesage 126730, has been influenced by the "medium that dare not 
speak its name".

I believe it is only in the film that Oliver Wood suggests that Harry 
might make a good Beater. There is only a brief mention of the 
Bludgers during Oliver's teach-in on Quidditch (PS "Hallowe'en" 
pp.124-125 UK edition).
