Hah, yeah, Gred and Forge are wonderfully amusing. I know! It's a really nice feeling when you read about Harry's Firebolt. Makes you feel so happy for him ^_^.

Spoilers are allowed now. The book's been out for a couple of weeks, and if any foreign people can understand this message, then they can understand the English version of the book.

[Copied from my blog]
Finally, we've received some new Harry Potter information
Well, Jo is currently doing her book tour around the US, and the other night, she did some readings of Deathly Hallows at Carnegie Hall, in New York City. More importantly, however, is the fact that she has finally started to reveal some pieces of information about the books, including the futures of several characters, and also some of the things that were staring us in the face all along, but which were never actually mentioned. Hopefully she'll continue to reveal things. However, here's what we've heard so far (taken from Mugglenet.com):
The most notable news of the night was the revelation of Dumbledore's sexuality. Jo says Dumbledore was gay and in love with Gellert Grindelwald. JK, in response to the audience's reaction, said "If I had known this would have made you so happy, I would have told you years ago."
Not quite as head-turning, but equally significant, Jo announced Neville Longbottom's marriage with Hannah Abbott. Hannah became the new landlady of the Leaky Cauldron.
Other heart-warming (ha!) news was revealed about Petunia Dursley. The night Harry left Privet Drive, Petunia wanted to tell Harry, "I know what you're up against and I hope it turns out okay."
To be honest, I'm not surprised that Dumbledore was gay. Something inside me totally accepts that particular revelation. I wasn't expecting Hannah Abbot to have such a strange job though. Landlady of a pub. Weird. Also, I never really thought she would be the woman that Neville would marry. Maybe they grew close in their last year of school. I mean, I can't imagine they would have seen each other that much once they'd finished school, so unless they accidentally met up on a blind date, or something ... ;D
