Just want to say that I was entirely serious when I offered to help make those contacts in the camps and to do as many of the baby visits as I'm able.
We can count on Ellie for so much now, I really think I could get away when that's needed.

I think the next step is to get entry -- Arthur, Bill, I'm assuming you're working on papers for the camps Ridley listed in addition to the babies? Knowing Ridley, it'd be better to take advantage sooner rather than later, only so that we can make sure that those contacts don't mysteriously disappear.
I also think if we're to make contact with people in the camps, that the names provided to us by Ridley are a start, but we ought to also consider making some of our own.
We've already got several people we've been talking to for years who know that we've got their best interests at heart -- the parents of the children we're keeping at Moddey Dhoo. Now I know they're civilians, and are less likely to be in a position of leadership within the camps, but they'd be good sources of information and perhaps might be able to get us in touch with Muggle and Muggleborn leaders in the camps that they know and trust. After all, they'd be much more likely to know about the inner workings of the camp than we would.
So that's another thing to think over as well.

Bill is hoping to have the bonafides for the visits to Ridley's people by Wednesday at the latest. He already has the parchment work for all five of the baby extractions. Now that the Players' time is freed up, we think they should concentrate on the babies, with Kingsley and I taking turns to go along and do the talking. With luck we'll have all of the babies delivered to Moddey Dhoo by the end of the week, barring any snags.
Dora, we think that the visits to Ridley's people may have the most potential to be dangerous. Merlin knows what she's told them by now, and we don't know how most of these individuals will react, at least at first, as we start to get in touch with them (which is why Alice's suggestion is a such a good one: it would certainly help if we found others who could smooth the way). Therefore, our representatives will have to be well disguised, which means I want something a little more comprehensive than the combination of makeup and theatrical glamours that the Players usually use. Yet we don't have enough polyjuice for two to use to do twenty-five visits. That's where you come in.
I think it would be a good policy for you to alter your appearance entirely each time. Would you be willing to concentrate on those? We won't send you in alone: I think Frank would be the best one to go with you. But your metamorphagus ability will help logistics and stretch our polyjuice supply quite a lot.

arthur, man, if there are any parents in the camps we're going to be going to already for Ridley's contacts, you let us know and we can hit two bludgers with one bat, swing by and talk to them while we're there.
