I'm sure everyone had a charming day yesterday at Hogsmeade. After a bracing walk over, I finished a spot of shopping and had a nice butterbeer.

I've been thinking about how exciting Hogsmeade day is, how mythic the shops are in our minds. The shops in New London are generally bigger and better stocked than those in Hogsmeade, but I don't hear third years talking about them with the same hushed awe as those in Hogsmeade. Is it because we can only go a few times a year, because it's always a group activity, a drawing ley-line running from Hogwarts to Hogsmeade or something even more fantastic?

Thank you for sitting and talking yesterday. I hope we can move forward from here. There were mistakes made all around.

Cedric, when you have a modicum of free time might I trouble you with a few more questions about Quidditch? I've been continuing work on my statistics project, and have run up against the boundary wards of my ignorance again, and an explanation of a few points from one who understands the minutiae of the game would be terribly helpful.

The limitations of a purely arithmantical approach have been clearly demonstrated, alas.
