I wonder if she is on one of the cards from the chocolate frogs in Harry's universe?
I have my own card of her which I got out of a frog and is my pride and joy of the collection (still dont have Albus)

Where do you buy those? My cousin said Barnes & Noble, but I never see them there and I want some chocolate frogs. (Mainly for the cards, hehe)
I've often wondered if she had one that Harry and co. could find in a frog as well...

Oh well I got them in my local woolworths, having said that I know that the amercian chocolate frogs are very different from the british ones because Ang (one part of Hogwarts Duo) and I have swapped them over the last few months.

I use to get mine at Linens n' Things. I only see the beans at Toys R Us, but that could just be the one here.

I got some at the biger-marked chains in Germany, like Real (not spelled like real, but R-E-A-L...)
But the German cards are rubbish.
There`s no McGonagall and Dumbledore, just Scabbers...Mirror of Erised...Nimbus2000....and some Characters who wouldn`t be on cards in JKR`s world.

I'm not sure the danish chocolate frogs are the same as all yours, but they seem to have abandoned me, I can't find them anymore. Too bad, the chocolate was quite nice, and I still don't have a card with either McGonagall or Dumbledore... I think I have one with a troll (Of all thing!!!!)  |

So true...but the chocolate is a lot better  ;D. I tried the Amrican version last summer...basically we tried to clean out Toys R Us on Times Square, and finally got a Minerva card, but no Dumbles. Point is, those German ones actually look like the movie ones, while the American look...kinda... ::)odd... |

Snowcat,
In the context that Stoneygem is using "fleet" it refers to the American usage for "fleet" as a large group of ships that are usually under one overall commander and sail together. So in the context of AD/MM I took it to mean they were to obviously together to be just a ship (ie there are some many clues they can't be missed), hence a fleet. Hope that makes sense, it is still early on a Friday here.

I bought about three boxes of the chocolate frogs. there is something about the chocolate that is very adictive...
What I found was, in theroy, you should have a compleat set in one box, but, they shifted the cards about so different states had access to different cards. (like the toad card, which was to be a common card, but in all of the HP card sets for the game that I purchased , I only found one.)
Just Born makes Jelly Belly beans, which are the Bertie bott everflavor beans.

What does a fleet meen Stoneygem? Actually, it means two things... Alesia, is right about one...AD/MM is the fleet because they are so obvious they just have to be canon. The other thing is that they are just the best - most powerful...and other ships like Hagrid/Madame Olympe though I like them, or R/Hr or H/Hr *shudders* don't have that much power...so, they are just ships, while our AD and MM are a full fleet... ;D  I know, I'm just crazy like that, but i thought that fitting... |
