Ginger, who posed the question in the first place responds:
Bloody 'ell, woman, you GOT it!
You are a genius!
OK, now for another question: Vernon says in chapter 3, "If we'd seen
CV's..." Harry cuts him off there, but I can't help wondering what the
heck would reassure Vernon, and I'm not sure it's not a witty,
talented, Filk-writer (or several of her, or something belonging to
her, since the use of the apostrophe is ambiguous in this case).
But then, again, Ron is refered to as "ginger" enough in this book that
I was starting to feel a bit self-concious. Maybe She does read
filks. Oooooh.
Ginger, wondering if CV is a British thing, and if so, could someone
enlighten her?
