Take the -ed away and replace it with another letter, and then you have a good couple of words which describe a lot of builders I've passed.

Perhaps one day I'll travel the world and say hello!

Then again, I'm not sure my travels would get farther than The Netherlands.

Re: What would have been your ideal epilogue to book 7?

Hi there,

I was working --can you believe that?-- but without logging out.

Hey, fair warrior, does the led stays on if we are logged in but the web page isn't active (naïve question)?

Horn* what?

Aussie Maji, how does it feel to be ahead of us Europeans?

*she should be sleeping*

Well, are we writing this new hypothese-epilogue thing or not?

I admit I'd prefer a school reunion (you drink and sing purpish songs and you get drunk and you remember...)

Re: What would have been your ideal epilogue to book 7?

School reunion is alright. Most of it would be the drinking part.

It has always felt great to be ahead of the mother nations.

*laughs at the anti-colonialist anthem, with ineffable humour (she's sleeping)*

How do Harry and Ginny arrive there?

H-Express, flying Anglia, thestral, trekking in Scotia...

The light stays on if you're gone under 60 minutes. After that the auto log out will log you out. Some browsers, like Opera (she says smugly), will automatically log you back in if you then reload a page, whereas I think other people have to sign in again.

I wonder!

Yay! That would be nice! Perhaps you and your lady friend will visit us all.

(Good luck with that, by the way.)

Thanks.

With Firefox I just have to open the page and I'm logged in. I don't log myself out though so it probably says I'm online for a while after I have left.

Re: What would have been your ideal epilogue to book 7?

Hmmm. I guess you could say I'm undecided on that question, but it is a good one.

I think at one level, folks want to know more of the characters they are interested in and less about the ones they aren't. So she did kind of jam a lot of characters into a tiny epilogue.

In general, I guess that I would have personally enjoyed seeing more of rise of Harry in his career and more of Hermione in general. And less focus on everyone's children in general.

Hi, mwb!

Yeah, it all seemed more like meet "The Next Generation", than "Let's See what happened to Our Heroes"

I would have liked to know more about what kind of man Draco Malfoy became, as well as whether or not Harry was still close friends with Luna.

I think the friendships that were there wouldn't go away. Malfoy though would have changed I think.
