But I made the suggestion that Arthur's trip to Azkaban couldn't have occured during the time that Ron has known Harry, because Ron would have mentioned it as it occured. I also remember that we were debating if it were work related. But how? -------------------- "Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see" - Strawberry Fields Forever (The Beatles) "We're forced to bed, but we're free to dream" - Gift Shop (The Tragically Hip) I said "Lily, oh Lily I'm so afraid I fear I am walking in the Veil of Darkness" And she said "Child take what I say with a pinch of salt and protect yourself with fire"

Like wouldn't Ron have added that their uncle/aunt whatever is there, or was there, instead of mentioning it was Arthur who went? -------------------- "Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see" - Strawberry Fields Forever (The Beatles) "We're forced to bed, but we're free to dream" - Gift Shop (The Tragically Hip) I said "Lily, oh Lily I'm so afraid I fear I am walking in the Veil of Darkness" And she said "Child take what I say with a pinch of salt and protect yourself with fire"

Odds are if the twins know, everyone knows. -------------------- "Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see" - Strawberry Fields Forever (The Beatles) "We're forced to bed, but we're free to dream" - Gift Shop (The Tragically Hip) I said "Lily, oh Lily I'm so afraid I fear I am walking in the Veil of Darkness" And she said "Child take what I say with a pinch of salt and protect yourself with fire"

It was George who mentioned it, in PoA, Chapter 6:

QUOTE

"Forget it, Harry," said George bracingly. "Dad had to go out to Azkaban one time, remember Fred? And he said it was the worst place he'd ever been, he came back all weak and shaking. . . . They suck the happiness out of a place, dementors. Most of the prisoners go mad in there."

--------------------

Where'd my signature go????

If she didn't want the "kids" to hear what was going on in Grimmauld Place then she was definitely not going to share something serious with them when they were even younger

That makes me believe it was something for the ministry, like a statement or something regarding an anti-muggle case he was working on. If it were serious, I'm sure it would have been covered up. -------------------- "Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see" - Strawberry Fields Forever (The Beatles) "We're forced to bed, but we're free to dream" - Gift Shop (The Tragically Hip) I said "Lily, oh Lily I'm so afraid I fear I am walking in the Veil of Darkness" And she said "Child take what I say with a pinch of salt and protect yourself with fire"
