That word rhymes with the name of an HP character mentioned in DH, which you have to work out.  For example : Rodent fond of nuts. 8 - which would lead to squirrel - which rhymes with Quirrell. Tell us how you did in your comments, but please don't give away the answers when you do so.  CLUES ~ 1. Long winding and tiresome. 7. 2. Planet associated with love. 5. 3. One of the two most famous universities in England. 9. 4. Residents of an abbey ? 5. 5. Word used to describe a thin and metallic sound. 5. 6. Large edilble marine fish. 4. 7.

Oh dear, I am going to have to face trials and suffering. This is not a good thing!

 I should be banned from the lounge with a score like that.

QUOTE(Alysaw @ Apr 1 2008, 01:14 PM)  So, what exactly do you mean by "trials and suffering"? Trials and suffering are trials and suffering only if you think of them as trials and suffering. If you don't consider them to be trials and suffering, they won't be trials and suffering. I hope you understand what I'm saying. It is a very simple thing, but most people do not understand it for some reason.

I got most of them right, but a couple of the clues did not make sense. I thought nuns lived in abbeys and monks in monestaries. And some of the words didn't actually rhyme with their answser. Overall a fun quiz though.

Oops trials and suffering for me too. I was hoping for a sun too so that at least I'd be happy about it... maybe I should ask Ron to read my tea leaves. Oh wait, Professor Trelawney told me to beware of ginger-haired men so maybe I shouldn't
