Order Only Private Message to Albus Dumbledore and Alice Longbottom

[alt_poppy]

Wanted you to know that Hester Charles has invited me out to Osmington Mills for supper this evening. (I understand they're calling it the Integrity now, distancing themselves from 'Smugglers' Inn' as if that were only ever a quaint Mugglism). I gather a good number of the clan will be there--Seawards, Lewises and Champs, certainly, along with a Willoughby or a Voss, perhaps. Hester promises her uncle Emmanuel will be there, and Anna Walters.

She seemed pleased to see me--interested to hear what I might have on offer and willing to discuss what they might do for us.

I'll ask after Mundungus, of course.


Don't expect to hear from me before tomorrow, but if you don't hear from me then, you may worry.

Indeed. I am exceedingly curious how they're keeping busy these days.

If Anna is difficult, tell her I told you to ask about her cat's bad toe. Or you might remind Thomas Seward about that incident in class, his fourth year. He'll know the one. Rather unfortunate about the peacock.
