Private Message to Aunt Lestrange and Cousin Hydra

[alt_nymphadora]

Junius and I were reading The Prophet this morning and saw the article about the Beauxbatons and Durmstrang students going off on a tour of the Protectorate. That must mean that Hogwarts is having Easter hols.

We'd still very much like for Hydra to meet our Albia. That is, if you'd like to meet her, Hydra. And we'd be very happy if you came here to ours for the visit.

Is there a day when that would be convenient? We hope so!

Thank you for the invitation, Mrs Ponds. Hydra assures me that she would indeed like to meet your daughter, as well as your husband.

Hydra will have some school-related obligations beginning on Saturday, but any afternoon before then should suit.

[alt_nymphadora]

Oh, Aunt, I'm so glad.

Let's say Friday afternoon, in that case. Would two o'clock suit? Bea should be just waking from her nap.

[alt_nymphadora]

Hydra, we're so glad you'll come!

Do you have a favourite sort of biscuit or tea-time sweet?

Bea isn't very particular yet. Well, Junius thinks she likes Aga's shortbreads best, but I think really it's just that no one buys them in the shop except old Mrs Mendenhall, so we always have some of those that need using up.

But we have lots of other, more popular biscuits, too. Or I could pop into the bakery on my way from work, if I knew what you especially like.

[alt_hydra]

I'm very glad, too.

You needn't go to any special trouble, whatever you usually serve at tea will be good for me. I like to try other people's favourites, anyway, because that way I can sometimes try new things. I've never had an Aga shortbread, I don't think.

From,
Hydra

[alt_nymphadora]

Well, then. We'll put together a sampler and see if we can't expand your tea-time horizons!

[alt_hydra]

Thank you. That sounds lovely.

From,
Hydra
