Hullo, all,

Easter holidays are almost here! I'd been looking forward to a relaxing fortnight, what, but it seems I shall have to change my plans.

Mrs Weasley, thank you very much for your offer to host extra revising at your home. I say, it's dashed generous of you and we shall certainly be a more jolly group if we're all revising together. I had just been about to write to Mr and Mrs Jugson about whether there might be any provision for tutoring and now that doesn't seem it shall be necessary.

Mrs MacMillan, thank you as well, for the offer to come and visit Ernie. I'm sure we shall have a splendid time. I say, it shall be a marvellous break from all the revising we'll be doing for O.W.L.s.

I've one more thank you to issue: Professor Dolohov, many thanks for the additional sessions last week and this. It's reassuring to think that we'll be better prepared than many of us feared might be the case.

I've also heard a rumour there might be a Tea Appreciation meeting over the holidays. If so, I hope I shall hear a confirmation before too long, what! (That is, Mr and Mrs Ponds, if you'd be willing to host it again.) Though I daresay there's little time for it, as the agenda has been developing.

Still, two weeks when one can have a tiny bit of a lie in--and no mandatory exercise sessions three times a week--seems like the lap of luxury. Although it must be said that those exercises are bally well paying off, for some of us more than others. I think we all look much more fit as a whole than we did at the start of term. It's rather remarkable how a sensible regimen of diet and exercise can change one's look--and one's outlook as well, what!

-Justin

Me. And I've heard from the Strettons, they're perfectly happy to have me spend my holidays cramming for exams. They do want me to pass my OWLs -- it would look bad for them if I failed, after all.

Glad they're seeing sense. About time for that, yeah?

Yes! I was a little afraid they'd have some mad idea about JEREMY tutoring me but so far they haven't.

Gemma will be disappointed if I don't at least come for a visit. We'll see.

I was worried you'd have to go there first, and that they'd lock you up and take away your book the way they've done before.

Um.

Sally Anne, obviously. And Pansy and Nev. I think the twins said Luna, but I'm not sure.

I should have asked them if she thought about asking Susan. Or Harry. Only that's- well. I wish she would, but-

Harry's not coming.

But if we can manage it he'll be able to spend some time with Sirius.

Yeah. I thought you'd say that. It's too bad.

But at least that's a good thing, anywiz.

It's fine.

I mean, it's okay. I'll have Raz teach me Apparation, and I'll be studying with Draco.

So you lot have a good hols, right? And maybe I'll get a chance to see you when I stop by to say hello to Sirius.

From: [personal profile] alt_hermione
Fred and George gave Mrs Weasley the list of everyone on the lock, who could be trusted.

She's inviting you all to the Burrow but the lessons aren't actually going to happen there. You'll find out more when you get there the first day.

And it's not just preparing for O.W.L.s, although that's a lot of it. They're going to teach everyone to Apparate, too.

And I'm coming, too.

Do you know how odd it is that you can talk secretly to my mum, but I can't? It's just-

Oh, well.

I'm glad you'll be there, though.

It will be a pleasure to have you over to the Burrow, and I hope you'll find it's time well spent.

Of course, we'd love to have you come to Laszlo's!

Consider it a standing invitation for the Tea Appreciation club or for yourself.

I imagine you're looking forward to stepping on the train tomorrow. Easter hols are almost nicer than Christmas since they come just when the term seems too intense to manage, don't they? A bit of a rest is awfully nice.
