- ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 8 (The Potions Master) - "Friday was an important day for Harry and Ron. [...] "What have we got today?" Harry asked Ron as he poured sugar on his porridge. "Double Potions with the Slytherins," said Ron." [...] "Wish McGonagall favoured us," said Harry. Professor McGonagall was head of Gryffindor House, but it hadn't stopped her from giving them a huge pile of homework the day before." [...] "I know you get Friday afternoons off, so would you like to come and have a cup of tea with me around three?"
- ↑ Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 9 (The Midnight Duel) - "Flying lessons would be starting on Thursday" [...] "At three-thirty that afternoon"
