Yippeee!!!!!   But JKR always does this when I get to sleep in, and 
my 
daughter comes with the excitement of it to bounce me out.  

I would venture a guess:  the insignia reminds me of the pyramid and 
eye on the US dollar which I believe is something like the Eye of 
Horus.  Don't know all that that means, but I know I have read 
something about the EoH concerning Potterdom, probably on Mugglenet.

I am assuming that others have concluded that it is the 
Hufflepuff/Hepzibah Smith vault because of the armor which could be 
the goblin-made suit that Tom R. offers an improved bid on (US HC p. 
435)?  There is also what could be a brass plant pot right below 
Harry's left hand which was mentioned in H.S.'s rooms. 

They would have to gain illegal entrance to that vault, seeing as 
they 
don't own it and can't talk the Smith's into it.  I'm betting that we 
are seeing HRHDobby after a battle with the goblins and/or set of 
tasks like Sorceror's Stone.  Surely one has many obstacles to face 
if 
entering the vaults in an unorthodox way.  They are quite cut up.  

I noticed Harry is not wearing robes, but street clothes. 

Note that it is full moon, so we get some werewolf action, I hope.  
Is that Grawp's face in the clouds?  

On the US cover I cast my vote for us looking from the DoM into the 
veil.  In our realm, the rest of the structure has fallen except one 
of the arches, but on the "other side" it is intact.  Maybe the 
debris 
at the bottom results from a Halloween effect, and the usual 
barricade 
is pulled down?

Anyway, we are happy with this here at our house!  Even Dad is re-
reading all the books!
