At the Cup

alt_nymphadoraI hope all's well at home, Junius, and you're not feeling too sorry you drew the short straw!
Shame Bea's too little to bring: there are lots of children here who will have this World Cup as their first memory.
Our seats are very good ones, though actually, your seat has been sort of reabsorbed, I guess, to make room for someone somewhere else: when they showed me up, it was just the one seat empty. I guess it's too late to change your mind!
I saw some people from the Ministry, earlier: some of my associates from the night crew, and that was nice because I was able to tell them I'll be coming back for the early, early detail, starting next week. I also saw Mr and Mrs Weasley, which was nice. They seem to have seats in this same level, but we're miles apart. I think they may be right round the other side from me.
The Lord Protector and Council just came in a bit ago, and that was all very festive, with trumpets and banners, and then the Protector's Hymn. I'm sorry you missed that: you'd have especially liked how ceremonial it all was.
I expect they'll be giving us supper soon. And then it'll be time for the match to start. I hope you got the wireless working a bit better than it's been doing. If not, let me know, and I'll keep you up with the score.
I suppose that's all to say for now, except that I miss you and Bea. Give her a cuddle for me, will you?
