[HPforGrownups] Random Questions from The Boy Who Lived

I wonder if Lily and Petunia were married about the same time since
Dudley and Harry are about the same age. Did they go to each others
weddings? It seems that Lily and Petunia had at least a minimum amount
of contact, how else would Petunia know about Harry. If Vernon detests
wizards so much why would Petunia tell him anything about her sister?
Did her jealousy of Lily drive her to go in the opposite direction and
marry Vernon.

I am also shocked that Vernon didn't realize wizards for what they
were. I guess he was in denial. It also appears that there are quite a
few wizards in Little Whinging. Do some of them have muggle jobs?
They could make some money using their magic to speed things along.

And the most important, What was in the LETTER???

Hmmm... well, i don't know about getting married at the same time... I
always liked to think that Lily and James had a "shot-gun" wedding. As sweet
as everyone says they are I still have no qualms believing that Harry's
birthday was a good reason for them to get hitched. LOL. (jsut my bit of
humor, there... but viable, I'd say).

Well, I'm sure Petunia and Vernon were invited to Lily's wedding and Petunia
had to tell vernon at some point. You can't pretend you don't have any
family, now, can you? Or, more likely, I'd assume Vernon heard Petunia's mum
& dad saying, "Why can't you find someone more fun, like your sister did
with that Potter guy. We like him..." and then the revelation occurs...

LOL. Vernon being ignorant about anything should not come as a shock to
anyone. LOL!! He's a dingleberry-head who needs the stupid slapped out of
him. Any way... Id' think there are lots of wizards everywhere but they're
good at hiding. However, as far as Little Whingining goes I think we only
have the Squib Mrs. Arabella Figg. And, yes, I wonder if they have Muggle
jobs, too! I'm sure some of them do and others don't depending on their
needs and since we know that Hermonie's parents can exchange Muggle money
for Wizard money I think it wouldn' be much of an issue.

And that letter... I swear I wish i knew what was in that, too. I'll be
Petunia sucks-it-up and lets Harry read it for himself. She's probaly got it
in a hat box with some of Lily's letters and photos. If Petunia didn't love
her sister on some level then 1) she wouldn't have let Harry live with them
and 2) she wouldn't have so much anger towards Lily.
