Two notes, and a special event
My thanks to the three members of the YPL oversight board (and the invited guests) for an instructive and thoughtful conversation yesterday. I greatly appreciate your time, your decision and your feedback, and I’ll be in touch regarding various items as we discussed.
Students:
I’ll be back to my usual more varied schedule of availability in a day or two, as I finish tidying up a few loose ends. I also expect to be scheduling some practice observation times, particularly for the exam years. They’ll happen whatever the weather: if it’s cloudy, we’ll use one of the projections. Signups in my exam years first, and then they’ll be posted on the board for anyone who wants as there’s room.
A presentation:
Ms Gillian Chadwick, lead designer for the recently released Empyrean 3001 telescope, has agreed to come speak to anyone interested at Hogwarts on March 22nd. Discussion at half-seven, in my classroom, and then we’ll move outside if the weather is decent.
She’ll be discussing the telescope itself, along with the charms, runes, and arithmantic calculations involved in her design work, so there should be plenty of interest to many of you. She’ll also be bringing some of their prototype models so you can see the changes through the development cycle.

Re: Private message to Poppy and Pomona
We may take tea whenever you've time and inclination. Between now and then you're to let me know if there is any way I could be helpful.
Re: Private message to Poppy and Pomona
I will let you know if there's anything you can do, but it continues much the same (I do hope it will improve now the meeting's done with - though I've only another two weeks or so before I have to deal with Stint in person for the first time in person since December.)
Tea certainly. And particularly if the weather continues being this uncooperative: I only got about forty minutes under the stars before it was just too miserable to keep trying.
