I really wish you'd continue the story. I love to see Harry get in trouble for doing his own thing, when it was logical that he would want out of the Dursleys at all costs. Ah well. Maybe you'll add at least a few more chapters before HBP comes out, just for fun.

Yea, an update. Glad to see Harry going back so we can see what's he been up to.

I like the picture you created of the reserve. Very picturesque. And the idea that Molly was trapped in Grimmauld Place was highly amusing.

Some constructive critisim (damn I wish I knew how to spell, um anyway): The portkey thing was an interesting theory but it really wasn't needed, at least not in such detail. In general I think the chapter could do with less dialouge and more internal stuff.

I think that your story could be very good if you had a little less detail and a little more conversation, thought etc.

Alright a new chapter.

I am very glad you persisted though these problems you had. I enjoyed the first few chapters a lot more than I would have thought and have wondered if you would be another one of those people who just seem to start a promising storyline only to fade into the abyss after a couple of months.

If there is anything I can do I would be happy to help. I appreciated my message and enojyed the fact that you actually answered one question straight out, but leaving me in suspense about the tour guide was awful now I am going to be looking for this lady in every chapter.

Actually I am very surprised about a few comments that came up in this chapter. For one Harry says he has been away for months and yet Charlie stated he had been missing for a month. I don't know if that was intentianal or just a result of the timedelay from the chapter as a whole.

Also your comments from Charlie about Norbert raise things that I am much more curious about. I mean does Harry actually have some kind of bond with the dragon or is it just that Norbert was actually tamed by Hagrid? I mean woudl Hermione and/or Ron have the same reaction? And what about Hagrid I mean compared to Harry he spent a lot longer with his dragon. I fact given the stir he caused with Norbert I was a little surprised that Charlie didn't have Harry get a little closer to the Chinese Fireball.

From the sounds of it Rita might come out with another article about Harry's new found magnitisim(and it seems to work on women from that last chatper). Can't wait to see if these few month(s) have given Harry some sauve skills with the media.

Harry has also seemed to become more observant. I do wonder though about what Harry has been doing in his wierd extended time away. I mean soem kind of hint was given to Ron and Hermione yet they both don't seem to have told Dumbledoor, so either it seems just a little unbelievable or they kept there own confidence. I must say that I wonder thoguh if that factored into there prompt decision to remove themselves from Grimwauld Place. I also wonder what happened to kretcher then and if anything important was left behind when someone left the property?

I had thought Charlie was a Seeker as well, why was Harry commenting of Chaser qualities and rumors?

You gave a lot of thought into the portkey bit I'm impressed. I also then wonder if Harry spent any time in a magical community. I mean I know that he exchanged for muggle currency but it seems like he honestly doesn't quite know of the differences between England's wizards and mainland England. I also wonder if he knew any other languages or just held up somewhere.

PS. Never tickle a sleeping dragon indeed. Who would want to?

Actually I was looking back and only a month has passed to the outside world in your story.

I found your story on gallandro's C2 group "Worth the Time" and I agree. I hope you do continue writing. I'd love to find out why Charlie, of all people, and what in the world Harry wants there.

I agree with skipping the grieving, travelling parts. Why write the same old, same old. But I do love it when Harry gets away and goes on his own the summer after his 5th year. Gives something for Dumbledore to freak out about.

Looking forward to more.
