Sorry, who?

It's certainly arguable from a Snape-fan POV. But it won't convince Harry.
Mind you, Harry, despite the belief of friends and teachers, is not going to
convince the Ministry or Skeeter. Just like the GoF problem... I also expected
his protective reaction to Ginny but it still makes me violently ill. On the
topic of ships H/H seems busted as is Remus/H. MAGIC DISHWASHER is taking a
beating. Is there still hope for FITD and OBHWF?

Bloomsbury p15 spelt correctly.

> 
> Chapter 3, Page 38:  The misty *fug* his breath had left on the 
> window sparkled...
> 
> Shouldn't that have been *fog*?

Bloomsbury p42 is spelt fug too, but fug according to dictionary.com:

n: (British informal) an airless smoky smelly atmosphere

> Chapter 23, Page 502:  ...Horcruxes in the plural, Harry, which I do 
> not believe any other wizard has ever had.  Yet it *fitted*:  Lord 
> Voldemort has seemed to grow less human with the passing years...
> 
> Shouldn't it be "fit"?

Bloomsbury p469 uses "fitted" also. Part tense of "fit". The Queen's English
m'dear :)


ewe2, the penguin that just keeps on giving, long after other battery-operated
penguins give up.
