Overwhelming, yes, but you're right, it helped to see. You have a great many children there, really.
On the astronomy - I could probably manage to write up some things that'd teach the parts of my field that are actually helpful. And maybe get free sometime again to do more in person, once I can apparate again.
(I'm well aware how most people think astronomy's not relevant to much, but - oh, the reason I wanted to teach the apparition coordinates bit last night is someone reminded me this summer how useful my explanation had been to them when they needed it.)
I enjoyed Regina a lot (and I suppose for all I'm hopeless at much of herbology, I have picked up enough about gardening for food from Mum and Pomona.) I kept forgetting, she's Muggle, of course, not wizarding. And it was a pleasure to meet Cecilia, though we got into a couple of tricky places. (She's none too sure about Tosha taking an interest in Sally-Anne, and given the rest of yesterday, I let it go.)
I'm glad to talk more to Arista (and Hector) too. If they want, ever, I mean. It's not that I knew Dominic and Chloe terribly well, but - I'm also so aware right now how much talking to someone who remembers the good parts helps. And seeing Sarah Fawcett blooming was excellent indeed.
