Quidditch at the Burrow

[alt_sally_anne]

...was brilliant. I got to play every position except Seeker at some point or another although they didn't make me keep playing Beater after I broke one of the windows.

It was nice to see Wood again, and Jeremy behaved himself (mostly).

Jeremy asked his parents and they said it's alright, so: the rest of you are invited here next week to play quidditch, if you'd like to come. On Monday, I think that's when Mrs Stretton thought it would be best. Owl me or tell me here if you can or can't make it, and if anyone else wants to come play you'd be welcome.

Fingers crossed mum says yes. I'm going to ask her at breakfast, because she's always in a better temper after her morning tea and newspaper, and with luck, she'll forget I'm supposed to have French for an hour in the afternoon on Monday.

I can always reschedule with Mlle Haupert later.

Longbottom's coming too, right? I need someone to keep me company safe on the ground, after all.

Well he wasn't at the Weasley's so I suppose I should make it clear he's invited (and no one will make him get on a broom)!

I made an absolutely miserable Keeper. I mean, I believe the tree next to the pitch was better at catching Quaffles than I was, and it was just standing there.

But I do make a fantastic spectator. I'll come up with cheers and everything. They may even rhyme.

Go Sally-Anne! Fast as you can! Take that Quaffle and chuck it in the can!

There she swoops! Flying loop-de-loops! Throw that ball right through those hoops!

...those sound a lot less silly when you say them out loud than when you read it.

I thought you were great.

When you were on the other side!

But seriously, how are you going to get better if you don't play? You have to fly. It's just for fun, anywiz.

Hah hah.

Well, this next time, I'll just play on your side to make it fair!
