Splendid Match

Harry's truly coming along as a marvellous Seeker - despite Macnair trying to favour Ravenclaw over Slytherin. (Really, no-one is fooled, Walden: One cannot call an attempt to put another House's performance between Gryffindor and Slytherin 'non-partisanship.' You might as well give up on your House's chance at the cup now and save yourself further embarrassment.)

I can't say I'm disappointed that Harry caught the Snitch so quickly, either, even though we had changed plans to be there. I'd quite forgot how cold those stands could be this time of year!

Well, we have given the Slytherin team adequate time to glorify their star player and now Narcissa and I shall be taking Draco and Harry into Hogsmeade for a celebratory dinner at Sorçère ... that is, if Harry can only be located.

Mr Marvolo, should you happen to be reading the journals for accounts of your praiseworthy strategy, kindly join us in the entrance hall. We are leaving for the village in ten minutes, with or without you.
