He's half-giant. [img]tongue.gif[/img] And apparently half-blood means half muggle and half wizard. It's an expression the Death Eaters like to call those that aren't pure blood (only half wizard, muggle borns are mudbloods). Or so I read online. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Also, giants don't have kings and queens but Gurgs (chief giants). [img]smile.gif[/img] ... But maybe his mum was a Gurg and a son of the Gurg is a prince... who knows.

But the third film was the best from the films, in my opinion at least. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I have a theory for this Book 2 Book 6 thing, but I'll also have to wait and see.

Sythe I'm also going to have to read books 1 to 5 again as well

I did suppose it might have been Longbottom, or Hagrid, but i am unsure. After all it could be one of those little kids that harry taught in the DA meetings, or some other person... i don't know, i have a bad history of predictions, so i shall make none. (maybe Hagrid though....)

Can't be Longbottom, both his parents are alive and well, although their brains are destroyed. They were both Aurors, therefore they have to have been a witch and a wizard.

I've heard things about Dean Thomas (boy in Gryffindor) being the Half Blood Prince. Something in one of the books where he says:

"Mums a witch, dad didn't half get a shock when she told him, he's a milkman".

Few things I know:

*If you don't want to be spoiled, don't read below!*

His shortest stay at Privet(sp?) Drive is in Book 6, this means less than four weeks. He will also leave for a much more pleasant reason.

Check MuggleNet for theories, facts, and squashed rumours, it's a great site, that's where I've made my theories from.

Did you guys hear about people from a town in Germany (I think) who were putting lots of bets on about who would die in book 6. It's a coincidence that the town is right next to a factory printing HBP. I won't post the name for spoiler reasons, but if you don't know PM me and I'll tell.

JK's publishers said "Don't believe any rumours unless they come from us or JK herself."

7 days 7 hours at time of posting! Shame I have preordered it at Waterstones and not Amazon, that means I have to go into town to get it

Guess I won't do anything but read on the 16th [img]tongue.gif[/img]

You know, after i finish "the drizzt parody project" that is published in my "drizzt" thread (and what you see is just a draft anyway, i will update it sometime not soon. I plan to write a chapter or two and then rewrite it) , i seriously think about paroding Harry Potter, or similar quality book. The fifth book had me laughing mad for 3.5 hours when i reached the "prophecy" part. As i say- when the author has absolutely no idea what to write, he writes about some prophecy. Gosh! I still giggle like an imbecile when i remember it. [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Edit: saw my post count. Oh NOOOOOOO!! I will be in 10 more post THE MUNCHKIN!! Woe to Me!! [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]
Before you parody HP, maybe you ought to read the parody already out there. "Barry Trotter and the Unauthorized Parody." </font>[/QUOTE]or maybe the one called Harry Pothead? yes its true,i saw it in a bookstore.

Harry Potter books were briefly on sale in a store in Canada, until they got stopped, and those that have bought copies are asked to return the books to await the official release date, promising them autographed copies if they do. Also...a court injunction has barred anyone from spreading gossip about the plot!

What a news story, eh?</font>
