Yeah, they were great. And that's wizard about the cracker: all my spells are loads better now I've got this wand. It's dead amazing sometimes when I do stuff I've done for ages and it's just so much stronger. Means I shouldn't have to sweat any of the practical stuff this spring, right?

And yeah, Mum never let us go before either. And to be honest, I don't think she would've if she'd known we'd get to go off on our own like we did. She sent us off with Mr Diggory, and he probably let us do more than she ever would.
