Miss Potts,

I have to say, I was a little surprised to get an owl from you.

I'm sorry to hear you got off on the bad end of a troll. Even if others were more hurt hurt more. I've broken my arm on more than one ocashon occasion and it is never pleasant, so I completely understand how it could be a hindrance to you – especially when it is the hand you paint and draw with most.

Make sure you go to the infirmary or something if you need to. It will be painful to heal – but it will heal. Even without magic. It just might take longer.

The sketch is very good even if it is with your weaker hand. I don’t really get close to snitches when playing, but it looks good.

I’m glad to see you are still pursuing your talents a bit more and even branching out into quidditch (the best sport).

London has been mostly quiet given everything that has been happening in Hogsmeade though I think Rufus (my friend) has been having a lot more fun than me. Especially given his company last night. I think.

I can’t remember much.

Beyond your injuries and being stuck in Hogsmeade, how are you doing?

Thomas Tilcott,
Chaser for Puddlemere United
