I feel like I'm intruding!! And despite a thorough search, I cannot 
find the suitable ingredients to make a margarita - so I am 
(unfortunately) completely sober!

However, if your theory is correct, DD was desperately trying to find 
Sirius, so he could apply this ointment. Therefore, at the time of 
Voldemort's defeat he didn't know Harry was at Godric's Hollow. So 
who told DD that Harry had defeated Voldemort? You seem to suggest 
that Snape was at Hogwarts ready to apply the ointment. Someone must 
have told DD?

Brothergib thanks Kaylee, waves to the others on the boat and 
continues on up the beach, scratching his head.
