6:15 (give or take, and I really need some breakfast as it's now lunchtime!!)

Having already raised a thread about questions I was expecting to have answered, I think most of them were answered, few not in generally the way I expected. Some surprises though, including a very interesting line of dialogue in the Epilogue. In fact, I'd say it was really a very well written piece, in that it tied up so many ends, including ones you never quite realised were loose, from books as long ago as PS. Also, some quite nice false trails, leading to unexpected mid-point switch-backs before the sub-plot pay-off.

Agree about the first death though - unexpected. And we never found out more about the Dursleys (though I might have missed it).
