A note and reminder

[alt_sinistra]

Fifth and sixth years: Madam Umbridge will be observing our evening teaching sessions tonight. I’m sure you will give her every possible courtesy. It does look like it may stay clear, so please come prepared to work outside.

Fifth years: we’ll be coming back to locational magic theory in lecture next week (and your observing tonight will relate). If you still have questions about what we’ve covered so far, please have them ready for your next lecture. Or ask here. (Beyond the usual reasons you might want to learn something, yes, it will be on your OWLs.)

Re: Private message to Tosha

I am all for figuring out what she's up to, trust me. I just don't want to be fussed at. (Not that you did, but - well, preventative measures. Sorry.) Anyway, sufficiently revived after a long bath and a mug of the very excellent hot chocolate I save for such occasions. And I'm about to work up notes for you and for Raz.

As to which classes, she gave me just under a week's notice. She picked the day, and I got the impression she's particularly interested in the 4th and 5th year curriculum. Protesting - or even changing the date - were clearly problematic, at least for me.

I'd appreciate the strategy, griping, and drink, as long as it's coffee. I think I'd best have all my wits about me and no hint of alcohol when I see her tonight. She - well, she tried a couple of questions about Minerva, on that topic, though I sidestepped them. (Now, after I'm done with the 6ths, that's another question, and immensely tempting.)

On New York, I rather suspected as much. I'll be interested to see what you think of the description. (I rather think this is the author who's actually spent time in America, but I wasn't sure until the last twenty pages.)
