ORDER ONLY
Oct. 8th, 2012 11:07 pmEmmaline, Kingsley's kipping the night here. He was fairly exhausted when he arrived with Sarah Brown, and we convinced him he'd be better off Apparating after a night's sleep and breakfast.
Morgan Griffiths is settling right in. I think the fact we have other Muggles here, including a few who are close to her own age has helped immensely. She's already gotten to know Patty and Lisa quite well, and Candace has immediately taken her under her wing and has been showing her the ropes in the nursery. I think she'll be a useful addition there.
Arthur, I've been talking to Stephen about Agram Japra. He's said that he can send off a list of all the standard diagnostics and potions that are standard for the infants at Moddey, and if Agram's parents are still insistent, he'd be willing and able to administer the traditional Muggle vaccines. They'd have to be shipped in from France -- some of them must be kept cold and expire if they've reached a certain age, so we most likely wouldn't find any medicines that were still useful here. He's had to work with needles and things while in the camps, so he'd be able to administer it properly. He'll say as much in the note he's sending off.
Other than that, there's not much news to report. We're back to our normal schedule now that most everything has been repaired and cleaned, and we're hoping that our hasty second summer planting will produce some crops before the first frost. At the very least, we'll plant our fall and winter crops more aggressively than usual, which should balance out some of our losses from summer, and Victor and Danny have been getting quite good at fishing to supplement our animal stock.
That's all for now, as I really ought to turn in for the night.

Private Message to Alice
Date: 2012-10-10 01:08 am (UTC)Did Dudley get his note? I wrote back to Harry but I'm not sure how much good it's doing. Merlin, I'm rubbish at this sort of thing.
Re: Private Message to Alice
Date: 2012-10-10 02:53 am (UTC)I don't think he quite knows how to react. He knows who Harry is through rumour, and he is still processing the idea that he's related to the adopted son of the Lord Protector himself. He's angry, confused, and eager, all at the same time.
Did you see the note, love? Did you see how he signed his name?
I think Harry has quite a lot on his mind these days. And you're doing the best you can. He's still turning to you for advice, which is something.
Re: Private Message to Alice
Date: 2012-10-10 02:57 am (UTC)And Dudley's planning to reply, at least from what Terry tells me. He might need some help writing it, though; he finds writing to be a challenge.
Re: Private Message to Alice
Date: 2012-10-10 03:03 am (UTC)He's turning to loads of people for advice, seems like. What concerns me is whether he'll stop when he hears the advice he's hoping to hear. And what will happen if that advice isn't coming from me.
I dunno; maybe next time they start writing to me I really will hand the letters off to the lot of you to answer. Or maybe we'll switch off: You answer Parkinson, I'll answer Neville and Frank can answer Harry.

Date: 2012-10-10 03:13 am (UTC)Dudley was a bit confused and asked me about it, which is why I know. He signed it as Harry Potter, Sirius.
Re: Private Message to Alice
Date: 2012-10-10 03:25 am (UTC)Really.
That's
Merlin.
