As I said to Raz, my scruples on the topic wandered elsewhere some time ago. The woman is an utter menace to everyone around her, and as much as I want to believe there are always less - less permanent solutions - well, what is the point of being a voice of experience if you don't use the experience? (Do I shock you? I shock myself, writing that, but it's true. How do people live with hating someone this much?)
As to the plans with the children, since Madam Headmistress has made it impossible for me to keep up with my Defence practice in my usual way (and I am missing the practice nearly as much as my partner in it), I had a word with Cedric to propose a small session to Harry. Harry suggested Draco, naturally, and Sally-Anne and Pansy, but also Mr Corner, who I had to think about. (I'd appreciate your impressions of him, actually.)
Harry asks for so very little, and I'd rather set aside my own needs preferences than risk them failing their exams.
By the timing, you might guess that this was still not as much sleep as Poppy - or I - would like me to get, but it was nearly six hours last night, which is better than it might be.
