[HPforGrownups] Godrics Hollow query

Being a novice Harry Potter fan I have a question.
At the end of book 6 Harry says he is going to Godric Hallow and there is
also the missing 24 hours in the first book after the attack before the baby
arrived at the Dursleys'.
Do any of you think that there may be a significant scene at Godrics where
there is some sort of residual magical energy that Harry needs?

Jeremiah:

You bet. I think that there will be some interresting memories for Harry, I
also think that there will be a some secret to be revealed. I say this
because Hagrid mentions in PS/SS that the real question is why LV never
tried to get the Potters on his side. We may find the either he did (never
Lilly, but James? I doubt it but it's possible...maybe the Imperious Curse?)
or LV just checked them off his list of potential recruits.

Also, there is the way things went down. Harry remembers a sequence of
events: James shouting for Lilly to take Harry out, the confrontation
between LV and Lilly and then the flash of green light. I'm sure things
happened pretty much in that order (if you own a 1st edition of Goblet of
Fire there is a discrepancy with the order his parents re-appear from LV's
wand that is corrected in subsequent editions) so we know Harry's memories
are accurate but incomplete. Was there someone else there? Or more than one
other person?

I think you're on the right track thinking that there is residual magic.

but here's an interresting entry:

===>Charlotte: Snape puts medicine on Harry's cut which will then be the
permanent scar...the celebration of the morning after as all the wizards
celebrate the day of The Boy Who Lived... other than that, not much detail I
can name.


I'm not sure where Charoltte found the entry that Snape puts a potion of
Harry to make a permanent scar. So, I'd like to ask about that, Charlotte.
