Half of his eyebrow. DIY, you weren't specific enough. xP

I thought the exchange was done at Gringotts. See book 2. The Grangers were changing Muggle money there, weren't they?

Yeah, but in OotP he used a Ministry service iirc. 

I don't remember that... But there is a 95% chance you did remember correctly. 


Now some thought questions, that i'm not sure about. (Spoilers ahead, obviously.)

As Hagrid points out, why did Sirius give him his bike, saying he wouldn't need it?

If Dobby's nose was so long, why wouldn't it have stuck out of the bush? After all, he must have been close enough to the front for Harry to see his eyes.

Ah come on, the answer was close enough and was not wrong technically, although like you said it didn't go into specifics... xD

And I suppose Sirius insisted on giving Hagrid the bike because they wanted to get Harry out as soon as possible. Just my thoughts.

And by bush, which scene are you talking of?

Beginning, Book 2

Where he sees Dobby's big green eyes? Ah, right. Well, perhaps he was deep inside the bush? I know that is a shallow explanation but that's a possibility I guess.

And there happened to be two perfectly sized and angled holes going that deep in?

It's magic.

or dobby poked the holes in

Yeah. Perhaps Dobby poked those holes to see into the Dursleys' garden.

Trivia: How many times was the sword of gryffindor used in the series?

Killing the basilisk, cracking open the ring, destroying the locket, and killing Nagini. That makes 4.


Another thought question: If Harry knew that the Weasleys always wanted a house-elf, why didn't he send Kreacher there instead of to Hogwarts?

Did other people use the sword "off-screen" to add to that tally?

I've enjoyed every moment in the Hogwarts school.

So what you're sayin is... you've been to Hogwarts.

11 year olds often don't get tricked into waiting for their Hogwarts letter for nothing.
