Figures they'd save all the best pudding for our last night here. I ate way too much.

Don't worry, Madame Pomphrey, I'm not going to be sick or anything.

Peeves didn't get to any of my stuff, cause I'd already packed it away. All except for my clothes for tomorrow morning. I am so ready for this year to be done.

Mum says we'll be stopping by the London flat to get all my summer things together and go shopping a little, then it's back to Scotland to Glamourask Gloss, which is Prospero's estate. I need to pack all the things I'll need for my trips back to London as well, as mum doesn't plan on going back to the flat at all over the summer. The wedding's going to be at the Gloss house over Christmas, so she's got a lot of work to do there, and besides, she's planning on spending part of the year there after she's married, so she needs to fix it up proper.

So that's an awful lot of packing to do, really.

I also am going to bring loads and loads of books with me. Prospero has a library of course, but mum said they're mostly books on Wizarding Law, and she said look really large and boring, and there's only a few history books, which I might like and all, but I don't know for sure and I'm probably going to be bored out of my skull if I don't have anything good to read.

And I'll miss everyone while I'm away, but at least there's YPL, where I'll get to see most everyone, and Draco's party, and Sally-Anne's visit. And my visit to London, too, where I'll get to spend some more time with Draco (and maybe Harry if he's around), which will be ace. So there's lots of things to look forward to. Which is always good.

I'm looking forward to our visit. And the YPL trip will be ace.

[alt_pansy]

It will, won't it!

I know we're supposed to be sorted into two different groups, but we'd better be in the same one!

...well, if Patil is right, we will be.

[alt_sally_anne]

I don't know how they're planning to sort things out but it won't be any fun without you. I think it's Professor Sinistra deciding though and she's nice and she knows we're best friends so I think she'll probably put us together.

[alt_pansy]

Ooh, I really hope so.

Or else, I'm going to have to run into a lot of lampposts and things, because I'd be writing in this thing the entire time.

[alt_sally_anne]

There's got to be a charm to fix the lamppost problem!

[alt_pansy]

Maybe a Bubblehead charm will make it so I just bounce right off of them!

[alt_sally_anne]

I don't think it does that.

It totally should, though.

[alt_pansy]

Well, something has got to protect us thick-headed freaks.

[alt_pansy]

Perhaps I can borrow Draco's Quidditch head gear thing.

[alt_sally_anne]

I was going to suggest that what some of us need, clearly, is a pillow-head charm.

Isn't there an Experimental Charms office somewhere? They should get on that.

[alt_pansy]

Well, with any luck, we'll be put in the same group, which will save our poor heads from getting bruised.


Haha, can you hear Milli snore? She ate so much at dinner.

[alt_sally_anne]

How could I NOT hear Milli snore? She sounds like a hippogriff. Or at least she sounds like I've always imagined a hippogriff sounds -- it's possible they're quite a bit quieter.

[alt_pansy]

Hah! Well, at least your bed isn't on her side of the room.

She always snores if she's eaten too many rolls at dinner, and she had six, I swear.

[alt_sally_anne]

I'm pretty sure it was seven, actually. Plus three helpings of pudding.

[alt_pansy]

No wonder, she's been at it half the night.

I'm really going to miss you this summer, you know.

[alt_sally_anne]

I'm going to miss you, too.

[alt_lucius]

I'm sure it can't hope to measure up to Regulus' selections for you, but you know that the library at St James' and even the Manor are both at your disposal. I'm quite certain we may keep you awash in reading material between the two.

[alt_pansy]

I may have to owl you for an occasional emergency book-borrowing, then.

I guess it must be odd not to be staying in London for long. Are you going to Diagon Alley shopping? Tomorrow? Cause if so, maybe we'll see you. We're going to Ollivander's so I can get a new wand--which is pretty wiz 'cause I've never had my own. I'm really curious to see if it makes much difference, having a wand that picks you instead of using Charlie's. I mean, I know it'll be loads better than using a snapped wand, but I wonder if it'll be better than before Charlie's got broken.

So is it good to be home? Or just odd because you're leaving again so soon? And when are you going?

Anywiz, if you're in Diagon Alley tomorrow, maybe we'll see you. And I guess if not, then have a good trip back north. Write and tell me what it's like, yeah?

[alt_pansy]

Sorry! Didn't get this til just now. It's a good thing I opened it up before we left!

Yes, we're going to Diagon in a few minutes, actually -- we've got to be done with my part of shopping by 2 for Draco's party thing, but I'll bet I can convince mum to get some ice cream or something, especially if it's real hot. And since my mum and your mum have already met, I don't think it'll be too hard.

I think it's absolutely brilliant that you're getting a new wand!

We're leaving Tuesday evening, because we have to go to New London on Monday, and finish all the packing of course. There are just loads of things to go through, and Hitty our House-elf is practically going spare with all the running around and moving things and all.

I'll take this along in case you're there too.
