Order Only Private Message to Colin Creevey and Frank Longbottom

It was lovely to see you yesterday. (You, too, Frank, but it's Mr Creevey I'm chiefly addressing here.)

And I was not only impressed, but most interested in the drawings you shared with me. Your eye for portraits is truly remarkable. And your choice of moments that capture the personality and depth of character--most insightful. The men in Saltash who worked digging out those tunnels. That whole series is really striking.

Here, such as it is, a sample of my recent sketching. This is the proud gentleman I told you about at Blithfield Hall. Proud to be a Bagot, this one!

(Mrs L asks us to imagine what we want the future to be like all the time.

I don't know that I've ever imagined myself as an ambassador before.

Thinking about a future where there's a Ministry who wants me to work for them, and who'd want to work with the goblins and centaurs and so on like we've been doing, well, it's sort of like Sally-Anne's aeroplane, isn't it? hard to picture, and sort of fantastically unreal, but worth aiming towards.)
