Hate to admit it, but today was well brilliant. I thought it was going to be dull, dragging around museums again. Thought we'd seen them all when we were there before. Did you hear them say there are four hundred museums in wizarding New London? FOUR HUNDRED?! I mean, sure, some of em are just people's old houses and little places like that daft commemoration thinger about the Fire that you climb up inside, but that's a serious load of museums, that is! I hope they don't expect us to go to all of them.
Anywiz, the new one we saw today was snitch and a half. And it was hilarious going past the empty spot in the Wizarding History museum where old Slytherin's armour used to stand--like they were just going to leave that big, empty spot with just that little card on the wall, saying how it was out on temporary loan--and then seeing it this afternoon in the new museum. Didn't look very temporary over there, did it? With that whole model of Slytherin's rooms at Hogwarts and all.
So, yeah. I'm sort of sorry we had to come home tonight. Things are dull here. Well, the twins went off to stay with Bill for their birthday, and I bet they're seeing parts of New London the YPL doesn't show us! Now they're of age and all. And Mum's ill. She didn't even come down for supper. Dad had to cook, and that's always- Yeah, anywiz, it was eggs. And Percy made a stink about how they weren't even fresh and how Dad'd scorched them and how it was just like the twins to go larking off. And he was just winding up to go on and on, only Dad gave him a look. So then he stomped off to his room, which, well, that's just as well, anywiz, but now Dad's gone off to sit with Mum. And Ginny's doing I don't know what, but it's not like we'd do anything anywiz, cause she never wants to play chess or cards or anything any more. So I'm just sat here, looking back through a really ancient Quidditch World, and wondering what everyone else is getting up to.
Is it the camp tomorrow for you lot that get to go?
