I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

alt_ronSo what's all this about the Quidditch Cup? I heard someone in town today saying we're all going to be allowed to go to France to see it, and someone else said 'Don't be daft, they're having it here in the Protectorate.'
I mean to say, which sounds more daft to you?
And I didn't see Marvolo's thing about it until Patil mentioned about it, so now I don't know what to think.
Also. How are you lot? What are you getting up to?
I've been mapping everything! I mean, it's dead wizard how that works. I've run across all sorts of snitch stuff, too, that I wouldn't've ever found if I hadn't gone off surveying around here. I've found abandoned houses (I mean, they're all over this part of Devon, right? but I've found some I didn't know about cause some are really well hidden even if you fly right over them) and caves and an old mine that's haunted. Brilliant stuff.
Wish I hadn't told Ginny I'd do all her chores. That's taking up all my time!

But hang on. What did Marvolo tell you about it? When's it going to be? I can't believe it's really going to happen!
Marvolo invited you to sit with him? Guess that'll be nice. You'll have good seats, anywiz.

And yes, the seats will be brilliant AND the Strettons can't possibly leave me at home to mind Gemma if I've been invited to sit with Harry. (Actually he was thinking about how I've said that anytime he's nice to me the Strettons get all worried and are nicer to me for a while.)

But it's snitch about the Cup. I mean, you don't think Marvolo's just having us all on, do you? Just, y'know, seeing if people really do read the stuff he writes and believe whatever he says? Hermione, too. I mean, she pretty has to believe whatever he tells her, doesn't she? Only, I dunno. Doesn't seem like something he'd do, does it? So maybe it really is true.
Thing is. Wouldn't somebody at the Ministry have said? In the papers, y'know.
It just doesn't make sense. I mean, if it's going to be here somewhere, that's a huge thing. They'd have to've been planning it forever. It's not like it's something they just decided a week ago, right? So why haven't they said? Why aren't they selling tickets and getting folks excited to go and all?
