alt_ronSo, yeah.
I thought it was really stupe this morning when we got the owl with the tickets and all. And Dad read the whole article out to us about the Cup.
But, d'you know what? Our seats are in level nine and a half. Like what's that even about? And then we've been reading where everyone else'll be sitting. And it turns out we're a half level above Corner's family, and the twins reckon that means we're in this section that's half a level below the main section for purebloods and half a level above the top of the section that's for halfbloods. Like it's the worst seats they could give Dad and not stick him with the halfbloods.
I mean, sorry, Sally Anne, but y'know what I mean.
And Dad. He seems really, I dunno. Not upset. He wouldn't let us see that if he was. But, well. I think he's worried what it means. Anywiz, he had to go in to work today, and he said he's going to be working loads of extra hours straight up to the Cup because there're work crews that his Department has to process, who're doing last minute stuff at the stadium. And that's why he's been so tired and busy since I've been home. I mean, I've hardly seen him at all, and I guess he's known about the Cup a long time, only he couldn't say anything because it was super secret and all.
But wouldn't you think that people who work at the Ministry and are making it all happen behind the scenes would get decent seats?
I mean, I knew we wouldn't have anything like the seats Harry and you'll have, Sally Anne. And Pans, you'll have good seats, too, I reckon. Cause you will.
But section nine and a half?
That's just-
It's just wrong.
