HP7 Party

What can I say. I’m exhausted. I stayed up late working on the Harry Potter trivia quiz and dying my hair pink. I think I’m going to have to practice my throwing-parties-for-kids thing, because it takes a lot more pre-party coordination than I expected. I got home to find my copy of HP7 on the stairs, but I think I need a nap before attending to it. And some cheese popcorn.

  1. Oooo. I would like the answers please because a few have me confunded. Also I would argue that Hogsmeade Station is where the Express leaves from because that is where the kids get dropped off when they get to Hogwarts. I think. And Peter is missing a finger or a whole hand depending upon the book. Well, he get’s that super hand after You-Know-Who comes back. And I really don’t know what a Crup is or when it is mentioned. So, answers for me. Please!!!

  2. Ryan, you hit on almost all the things that came up during the quiz. I’m emailing the answers to you nowish.

    The train leaves from Kings Cross. It arrives in Hogsmeade.

    I realized after the fact that Peter Pettigrew changed how much he was missing, but luckily I could just say “if you put down either finger or hand, you get the points”.

    Also, there was a point made that in a literary sense, we “meet” Sirius in book one, when his name is first mentioned.

    I forget which book the crup comes up in.
