Apologies and Ramblings!

I am still around! Everyone is fine in "Jane's world", life has just been a little busy with little house-holdy problems! But a family wedding next weekend is something to really look forward to.
My cousin is getting married, and seeming it is out of town, we're having a two day break! I don't often attend weddings and family get-togethers, for the simple reason that it usually means a disco later, and I don't like noise. If there is a family get-together in a house, that is different :-) My sister and her husband are attending it, and Mum and me are going with them. I am really looking forward to it.
Potter ramblings
DUDLEY DURSLEY born on June 23, 1980.
Dudley Dursley is Harry Potter’s Muggle cousin, and the only son of Vernon and Petunia Dursley of number four Privet Drive, Little Whinging, Surrey. Dudley, in extreme contrast to Harry, was grossly overindulged by both his mother and father. Petunia petted and coddled him and turned a blind eye to his bullying. Vernon, on the other hand, encouraged his son’s manipulations, greed and violent behavior. Dudley attends a private school named Smeltings and spends his school holidays terrorizing Harry and the younger children of the neighborhood with his gang. As Harry grew in power and confidence, however, he became less of an easy mark. Then the summer they were both fifteen, Harry saved Dudley from attacking Dementors, and Dudley got a first-hand taste of uncontrolled evil and of Harry’s bravery. When they part two years later (perhaps forever), Dudley astounded Harry by showing concern for his safety and thanking him for saving his life. Dudley is the only of the Dursleys who has changed for the better!
