I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

alt_justinHello, friends,
How was the New London trip, what?
I say, CCF is coming up rather quickly, isn't it? Remy and I have gone swimming twice this week but I think overall I'm still well unprepared for whatever they're going to throw at us. Have you lot had any hints at all, as you've been counselling?
The Jugsons took me out to another party this afternoon. This one was at the Derwent home and Ron, your sister was there as well. Did you know she would be going?
The Derwents are rather nice although they seem to be the sort with loads of well boring acquaintances. There were a number of people our age, though, which made the time pass more quickly.
I've been terribly occupied all summer long and yet, I suppose it sounds a bit rich to say, but, I do miss home. Dijon, I should say. Only in little things, what? Like the fresh bread our cook made every other day or the chimes on the clock in my mother's salon. My old bed and the books I left behind. The view from my window onto the Rue de Talant. I miss television commercials and believe me, I never thought I should miss those in the slightest!
You've every right to tell me it serves me right, what? Still. I'm sure I shall snap out of it once we're all together again at the CCF exercises. Something about the party this afternoon made me think of home, I think.
Well, enough of that. Sally-Anne, you'd said you were going to write more to us, about visiting your mother? Do you think she's going to join forces with Mrs Weasley and Madam Pomfrey and become a three-witch crime-fighting squadron, what?
How is everyone else enjoying their holidays?

Date: 2012-07-23 12:56 am (UTC)It caused such a bunch of screeches at the tea at Mrs Pendleton's garden party last week; you've no idea! Although I'm sure it wasn't the hedgehog's fault at all that he ended up in the sugar bowl. That was simply because I sort of fumbled him when I took him out of my pocket and that's where he happened to land. I couldn't help it...those spines were quite uncomfortable. But it didn't bother him. He didn't even wake up from his nap before I snatched him up and stowed him back away.
