Well then! Now that lessons and NEWTs and educational matters have been completed and put aside, perhaps Molly and I will make an honest-to-goodness, non-Ministry business trip out to the castle to visit our friends and children. I must say that given my busy lifestyle it does come in handy to have most of the brood off at Hogwarts. And now that I've cut back on Molly's pudding I find I can Apparate at twice the speed I did before. I've become quite svelte. Perhaps that publicity columnist for the Daily Prophet will stop referring to me as "broad and ruddy" now. There's nothing to be done about the ruddiness, I fear. That's simply what happens to freckles as one ages. You can already see it in Bill a bit. That means you next, Charlie.
So then, Alastor. If I owl you with the time and day that Molly and I plan to visit, will you let us on the grounds without any trouble? I haven't forgotten what happened last time (that was my best hat!), but I do have a growing grandson to check up on.
