His house has rather a lot of people coming by. Having friends around him means that he doesn't have to talk to them as much.
I'm going to have to go back to the Strettons at some point. I got away by telling them I'd deliver all the parcels people had ordered sent to the Weasleys -- there were loads, all sorts of things from camp administrators and other people Mr Weasley worked with -- and that would spare them finding the owls. And they said 'oh brilliant' and I gathered it all up and went through the floo and haven't been back.
At this point they're probably getting cross but unless they send Jeremy to come shout at me there's not much they can do
Dash it all, we're expected at the Malfoy party in an hour.
How late do you expect to stay there? I'm sure that once Hydra and I are both at the Malfoys' we could use their Floo. We might even be able to nick some platters (Remy's told me there's always an abundance of food) and bring them along, what?
I'd quite like to come and pay my respects. But perhaps it might be better to wait until tomorrow when there are fewer people and some fresh reinforcements would help.
Ron was up all night last night, I think, sitting vigil with his mother and with Fred.
So tonight I think Ron will probably go to bed early and hopefully take some Dreamless Sleep.
Although you could come by and see. And bring platters. They've gotten more gift parcels than they know what to do with but the nice thing about platters is that they're all READY, you know? And it's Christmas and apparently Mrs Weasley feels like this means EVERYONE who comes by has to eat something.

See you soon, then, what!
