Luna, Ginny, Hydra, I hope your OWLs are going well for you. Best of luck on your remaining exams.

Kingsley, Fred, George, I appreciated your updates on Saltash. It looks like things are progressing rather well on that front thanks to a steady stream of assistance from Aldrich and Bedford. Regina and Lisa are certainly putting in a great deal of work into helping break ground for their summer crops, and I know the people of Saltash appreciate the work you three have been putting in. Any support the rest of you could provide over hols would be welcome as well.

I think the idea of a medical school is quite brilliant. Dr Williams seems quite passionate about training up nurses, and I'm sure there'll be no end of volunteers. I'm so glad they've worked out an exchange with Dr Harris so that he can lend his expertise as a trauma specialist, and their planned set-up for research into combined techniques seemed quite promising. Sally-Anne, Poppy, I have a feeling Drs Williams and Harris will very much want to meet with you come summer.

In camp news, we're continuing our regular deliveries of nutritional supplements, radios, and health pamphlets in coordination with Sherwood's smuggling ring and the press at Aldrich, and the camp button network seems to have taken on quite a life of its own. The set-up they have to pass messages back and forth is quite impressive. Tim, one of ours, works there during the week, and he says that by this point, he can read a message by feel without needing to write the pattern down first. He's also taken to tapping out jokes on the table at Sunday dinner.

Moddey is preparing for our summer crops as well, and is buzzing with activity (and bees). We have three girls who are anxiously awaiting wands, and Arista Selwyn is already quite jealous of them all. Fu continues to work on modifying firearms to take homemade shot, and, as usual, is trying very hard to come up with new ways of blowing things up. Ragnik is still settling in, and now that we've sorted out the particulars regarding his living space and meals, appears to be getting on tolerably well with Melli and Tricia. The three of them tend to spend most of their time holed up in their workshop, but when they do deign to grace us with their presence, they appear to be satisfied with their progress. Melli has been working rather steadily through the materials obtained from her family's shop last year, and several of her wands have already been matched successfully. Ragnik was quite overjoyed to receive not one, but nine acromantula legs to experiment on, and Melli was quite intrigued by the fangs.

It's getting late, and Frank is rather strongly suggesting I put down my quill for the night. Still, I am pleased with the progress we've been making so far this spring, and am looking forward to this summer.
