Order Only: Private Message to Sally-Anne and Hermione

Hullo, you two,

I say, I can well imagine how poor Stretton feels, learning about all this right now.

In a way I think it was quite cruel to simply swear him in with so little preparation.

On the other hand, what, perhaps it's best to overload him and see how he does at absorbing it all.

It's too bad you're not at the Strettons', Sally-Anne - not to inflict them on you, what, but to give him someone he can talk to about it all.

I expect he'll get bally well next to no sleep tonight!

As for what compels wizards to put spells on everything, there's probably some charm a clever shopkeeper used on the hats we all wore as babies to make us believe forever and ever that it couldn't possibly be a proper engagement ring unless there was enough magic on it to make it truly dear!
