Dear Ara,
How wonderful for her.  I would colour myself impressed if the thought of becoming an animagus didnt terrify me.  No thank you! I will stick to my plants thank you very much! I do hope her very rare success doesn't encourage others to take foolish risks.  If you want an animagus horror story you need only look to Professor Valenduris brother.  He was skilled at magic and a full animagus and now hes stuck as an owl! 

With the shop expanding I've taken on managers so I'm not in the shop anymore.  So your next weekend, when you find yourself in the village, pop by the shop and one of the girls will send word to the greenhouse.  I spend most weekends tending my flowers. 

Love
Ben
