I solemnly swear that I am up to no good

The Moddey Dhoo people who went on the Solstice run are all safe, and the boats are okay. At least.

Mr Longbottom's come back and he's reporting to Mrs Longbottom now.

I'm glad the little kids are still asleep. The adults are all pretty upset, and no wonder. Everyone was excited about getting the wands, but the news from the North Sea...that's even worse.

Re: Private Message to Terry Boot

I haven't talked with him, no. When stuff like this happens, what I usually do is transform into the Professor and just keep him company in that form. Doesn't involve talking, but I think it helps him as much as anything. At any rate, he spent a lot of times scritching my ears this afternoon as he and your mum were talking over what happened with various people.

It's all been a shock, but the two of them, him and your Mum, seem to be handling it all right. As near as I can tell.

I think they are very relieved that the leader of that group, Beth, wasn't one of the ones killed. She's the one they know best.
