I, too, am of the theory that Petunia was at the christening of Harry. It makes sense that she would be there, plus it explains why DD had the invisibility cloak. Being there would have presented Petunia ample opportunity to witness some magic, hear things she otherwise would not have heard, and be a part of her sisters important moment. Think of the possibilities!!!

How does Petunia get to the christening? Does Dumbledore bring James's cloak to Privet Drive, conceal Petunia under it, and bring her back to her sister sidelong apparition? What does she do with Dudley in the meantime, leave him with Vernon? He would be too small to be brought with them traveling that way. Remember harry's discomfort when he travelled with DD that way. I just don't think it would work.

sorry i doubt petunia was there. it just doesnt really make sense!
Dumbledore himself might have been there tho to do all the charms between Harry and V. Could Dumbledore have brought Regulas to the Potter's house? might seem out there but ya never know --------------------  So many questions answered, yet so many remain... |

Personally, I'm completely convinced that the bartender at the Hog's Head is Aberforth Dumbledore. Think about it: Aberforth was described as a "strange bloke" by Mad-Eye Moody, which the bartender certainly seemed to me. He was described has having lots of hair, a long beard, and being tall and thin, all of which could be said for Dumbledore. Most importantly, he was said to look "vaguely familiar" to Harry, probably because he looked somewhat like Dumbledore, and because earlier, Moody has shown Harry a picture of the original Order of the Phoenix. [This is all in the fifth book, when they go to the Hog's Head to organize the D.A.] Any opinions on that theory? This post has been edited by quinnopolis: Jul 18 2007, 04:49 PM |
