Robert:
Aberforth is the barman at the Hogs Head. It is painfully obvous and
JKR has confirmed it.

Aberforth's duty in the story will be that he has the locket. This is
obvious because we know all of this for a fact:

#Harry and Sirius found a locket they could not open in Phoenix

#RAB is brought up in the same sequence of chapters and YES RAB is
Regulus. JKR all but said so in the LeakyMug interview.

#Concluding these two things we can figure out that the locket at GP
was the Horcrux.

#JKR doesn't write things just for the hell of it so why was M.
Fletcher stealing Sirus's stuff to ABERFORTH...

#Obviously Harry will remember the locket at GP then when he realizes
it is gone he will remember Fletcher and the barman at the Hogs Head
buying things from him. This is when he will find out who the barman
really is.

There is only 1 book left and tons to wrap up. JKR isn't going to have
tons of time to waste on things like Ginny is a Horcrux and an
Aberforth/Albus switch.

It is all going to end in the Department of Mysteries and Harry is
going to somehow knock Voldi through the arch. This way he won't have
to AK him. I don't think JKR would want Harry to kill outright.

Thoughts?

Robert
