I'm starting to think there are no Weird Sister tickets left anywhere for the Hogsmeade concert on Halloween. I've looked everywhere that I can think of, and a few places I hadn't thought of, and I still don't have anything yet. I'm not giving up, but I don't know where else to look.
Dora, I can't find a couple of my socks, ever since we did laundry last. By any chance did they get mixed up with yours? We should get ourselves a hammock soon, you know? Put it up on the roof. Not sure if there's room for two.
Do you think the Ministry might get some complimentary tickets? If so, how do we get hold of them? Just a thought.
I'd hate to disappoint Dora by not getting the tickets

Anyone know where I can get hold of some Weird Sisters tickets?

Wow! Wow, wow, wow, and let me say it again, wow!
I am so blown away this morning, I still can't believe last night happened. I keep pinching myself - and Dora too, which just earns me a quick smack! - to make sure I'm not dreaming.
We went to the Dragonslayer last night, just for a couple of drinks to unwind, then go home, when we found out they were having a comedian do a set, a sort of special favour to the owners, so we stuck around to give the bloke a chance. And damned if it wasn't EDDIE OMG IZZARD! Seriously!
He only did one show, but then.... then..........I still can't believe this - he sat down with me and Dora for a few and had a drink with us, and talked, and I"M STILL EFFING AMAZED!
Babies on spikes! Stonehenge! Executive transvestite! He kept us in stitches, and he's so genuine to talk to. Nothing can top this evening. Nothing!
W-o-w... wow......

I would like to make a general announcement for those might be looking for me, I've moved out of Oliver's flat - and many thanks again to him for being to patient and understanding and letting me crash so long - and moved into a flat in Rushey Green, with Dora. Living with Dora is completely awesome! The flat is on the top floor, over a wine and spirit shop, can you imagine that? There are two levels to it, we have lots of room for us, and we have access to the roof, which is flat! We've already been up there, hanging out, and we were talking about putting a hammock up there.
Work is good, I've met some interesting people, and I like working at the same place where I've got friends and family.
[Private to Dora]
I just had a thought, we should probably make time to go round to the Burrow, tell my parents what's going on and all, see what's up with them. What do you think?

Much as I do love my dragons, and being here taking care of them - I know, I've been obsessed with dragons since I was a kid, haven't I? - I am leaving them behind and coming home. It's time, I think, so I am heading out as soon as I can, I should be home before too terribly long. I'll find a job, of course, but for now I'll just be at the Burrow.
[Private to Siblings]
Can you lot stand to have me at home again? Or have you rented out my room?

[Private to Dora]
Thanks again for talk to Dumbledore. I already feel better about things, just knowing I'll be at home, where I can be useful.

One of the advantages of being here in Romania besides the obvious one of handling dragons is the proximity to Transylvania, and the Carpathians, and Dracula's castle. I'm determined to see it, and some of the other handlers are interested too. We just need to find the time, there's always so much to do. Not that I'm complaining, mind you, but there's nothing wrong with a little relaxation, either.
It was grand to be home during the TriWizard tournament last year - surprising my mum with a visit was the best part, I think. She was practically speechless. But I think she also forgets I'm a grown man and she doesn't need to be on my back about picking up my clothes and such. Merlin knows what she'd do if she saw this tattoo I got, but it was so awesome, how could I not? A dragon! I hadn't realized how much I missed home, and my siblings. It's always good to hear from you all, I know you're busy, too, but a word now and then wouldn't go amiss.
[Private to Dora]
Dora, the strangest rumours are coming in here, but they make no sense to me. Something about the Dementors not only leaving Azkaban but being on the loose? I don't think we're always kept up to date on what is going on back there, more of a need to know thing. But I think I do need to know this, you know?
Loved your last owl, by the way. I miss hanging out with you. I'm sending you a recipe I got for Ciorba de Pui - sour chicken soup. It's delicious!

| PARTY ALERT |

Merlin, I'd forgotten how much my mum likes to adhere to certain things, such as clean rooms and tidying up one's own washing. You'd think she'd realize I'm grown now, been on my own, and am capable of doing these things. But I guess not. There is an muggle saying I heard over in Europe, which goes something like, When in Rome, do as the Romans do. So I guess I'll play Roman for now, and do as I'm told. Better than being smacked, after all.
[Private message to all Weasleys bros, and Tonks]
Attention, attention!
At the suggestion of one very clever Oliver Wood, there shall be a party extraordinary in order to celebrate the return to these shores of your humble servant, not that I think that alone is cause to celebrate, necessarily but because I think we can use the chance for a get together, put your hair down and relax evening!
Alright, then, who's in? It shall be held at the Leaky Cauldron and it would be nice to know who would like to attend?
