Kemper now:
>From Accio Quote:
"There will be some characters [in Book 7] who you don't know
particularly well, and there may be a couple of new characters, but
nobody really major. You know pretty much the cast list by now." [ITV,
2005]

To relate to the books...
So... will the next DADA teacher be someone we've met, or someone insignificant?

Hmm...

Kemper, AKing time tonight by watching Transformers then sneaking in
