Potioncat:
It isn't canon, but I've always thought the Crabbes and Goyles were 
such characters...that is, had some role on the manor grounds. I can 
picture the two wives gathering eggs and making butter. Ok...my view 
of British farm life is based on the series of books "All Things 
Bright and Beautiful" etc, but you get the idea.

(My own family were tennet farmers in the US south. My father 
actually plowed behind an old mule and my grandmother churned butter 
that she sold.)

Seriously? How cool......without magic? Is Charles related to Severus?
