Lunch on Saturday sounds good. You should really pop in and see mum and dad some day, you know, before you start to forget what the Burrow looks like. Then again, I'm sure your house will look like a rabbit warren very soon, too. I mean with babies everywhere, obviously, rather than it being underground.

I was just there for Mum's birthday, you wanker. Hasn't even been two weeks. I can bring take-away to you on Saturday, though, if you think I'm somehow in danger of forgetting the place.

Must have missed you. You were the blonde with the long hair, right? Seriously though - it shouldn't have to be a groundbreaking family event for us to run into each other. I miss you, you git.

If you mean the gorgeous blonde with the swelling belly, you'd better keep your eyes off my wife. I was the devestatingly handsome one, of course. As if you'd ever miss me.
Seriously, though, I agree. Which is why I wrote the owl. Next time, though, it's your turn to write first, mate. I'd say that I missed you, too, but I'm too macho for that sensitive stuff.

Thank you for the invitation. Dinner at your home would be lovely. I am interested in getting to know Fleur better as well. The Ministry is treating me just fine this time around; I'm quite enjoying myself.
Pick the date and time and I'll be there,
Percy

How about next Wednesday, say seven? Glad to hear you're enjoying the job.

Nice of you to instruct me not to whinge. You must be taking after Mum now.
Lunch sounds great. Maybe the Hog's Head or the Three Broomsticks? Because I know you're a lot wealthier than I am.

Just practicing the whole paternal thing. How about next Tuesday for lunch at the Hog's Head?

I'm always up for a pint, though I wouldn't be opposed to a family match, either. I believe your wife offered to cook for me too, but that may or may not have included you.
Whatever you like, I'm easy.

PS: Careful what you drink and eat, mate; there were a couple of giggling seventh years in my store last home weekend sighing over their 'dreamy' Runes professor. Don't think I need to specify which section they were in.
PPS: Here's something that you can feel safe drinking. Might even get you lucky.
Enclosed: a bottle of gag brandy, the kind that makes you spout romantic poetry

It better have included me. I'll talk to Fleur about dinner, but, until then, you want to get lunch on Friday? It's a long day for me, so I'd welcome the break.
Bill
PS: Dreamy? Bloody hell. Couldn't they at least say ruggedly handsome? Thanks for the warning.
PPS: I don't need a bottle of brandy to get lucky, but I appreciate the gift. One of the new products?
