To my fellow fifth-years,

I humbly beg your pardons for disrupting this morning's exam. It seems I'm allergic to Pepper-Up potion, a fact which one had not known prior to this morning.

I do hope I didn't ruin anyone's pages (apart from my own, what) or unduly disturbed anyone's concentration.

On the plus side, I'm quite well, now that Matron's given me an alternative brew. Thanks to those of you who came by the Hospital Wing at luncheon to check on me.

No, WE absolutely did NOT slip you anything. Wizard's oath. We wwouldn't try pulling a trick like that, particularly with your exam. Even if History of Magic is useless.

The way we're planning it, each of the concoctions we're testing comes with its own antidote. What's the point of setting yourself up to puke to get out of class if you can't stop? So the Puking Pastille comes with another pastille you can swallow to settle your stomach again. We suppose it could be its own little first aid kit: if you're puking for real without OUR help (or maybe because you have an allergy to Pepper-Up!), you could break out one of the antidotes to make it stop. Although we suppose most people would simply go to Madam Pomfrey instead.

Other products planned: Nosebleed Nougat, Fainting Fancies, and Fever Fudge.

We have sent out a couple other feelers on investors.
