It's late and I'm tired and my mind is wandering so  Why would Hagrid be
buying flesh eating slug repellant for slugs eating the school's cabbages? 
Are the slugs in the UK that different from the slugs in the US?  I believe
the slugs in the US eat plants and not flesh and, iirc, cabbages are plants.
