That is a tricky question potter2005; Fred once got whacked with a broom by Molly for giving Ron Acid pops that burnt a hole in Ron's tongue. Ron tells Harry that in POA (in The Marauder's Map) when Harry suddenly shows up at Honeydukes. And Acid pops, as you know, was one of the passwords to Dumbledore's office in HBP. smile.gif

Wow that was hard. I was very happy to get a P! I'm horrible with little details. In the floor category I only remembered one floor number, and that was from playing OotP on the Wii and not from having read it in the book.

That was really hard. The way the question about Fred and Ron is worded makes it seem like Fred told Ron the password and got in trouble because of telling him...
