1 February 1984 - France
Atticus,
Basil and Reginald? I suppose the two are quite a bit alike. Though I hesitate to assume either of them lead lives to frown upon. At least they contribute to society, Basil as the guiding light of a new generation and Reginald to the Prophet. As for scaring him away from Quidditch, it was his own doing. He has every ability to be an impartial party if he so choses. Let the others talk. He comes from an affluent, successful pedigree-- there is bound to be discussion of his having a job at all! (Though I do applaud them for it.)
As for your mongrel of an owl, (whom I suppose I adore dearly), we shall see. Genevieve is the epitome of ladylike so unless he provokes her, there may not even be cause for war.
I send the portkey herein. After breakfast Friday works splendidly!
see you soon, A.
Attached is a portkey in the form of an old sock. Atticus' from a long time ago with a hole in the corner, summoned from the depths of Alderton house.
