Ceridwen:
My fifteen year old, when pressed, said she thought it was implied 
that the houses were closer after ninteen years, that the houses were 
not closer after ninteen years, that... "Meh.  I'm going to have 
breakfast."  Her other opinions of DH were that the Hallows confused 
her, she didn't know what was going on with them; and the book was 
boring when they were camping.
