alt_padmaWell, really, he was here for the YPL meeting, but I didn't think he'd be one of the St Mungo's Healers they let come, but he was!!!!
The Healers talked about all the things that magic can heal, like broken bones and stop bleeding and potions and draughts that cure all sorts of illness. And then they talked about how things were before wizards ran everything, when people got into horrible car accidents and shot each other with things called guns and killed each other that way, and how now the worst thing most wizards have to worry about is splinching, or spattergroit.
They talked about the dragon pox vaccine that Healer Oxgall is trying to develop and all sorts of research.
And then they took questions about what it's like to be a Healer, and Healer training, and all that. And then Haruman had tea with me and Parvati. He brought a hamper with some marmalade (I think it was actually the Strettons', it tasted a bit like the transfigured stuff Sally-Anne had last year) and biscuits and we toasted the bread in the Great Hall. Bobolis and the Sandovals and a few others from Ravenclaw Corner came as well. It was jolly nift!
And then he told me that some Aurors came to ask him more questions last week! Remember that murder, the one with the wife and the man missing a finger? Well, it seems like there were other ones, just like it, only each one was missing a different finger! And so they wanted to know if he'd examined any of the other bodies. Well, he hadn't, but they asked all sorts of questions about the one he did go to see - not just about the wizard, but his house, and what he remembered from the call they got to go and tend to him. He said he might have to testify to the Wizengamot if they ever catch the murderer.
To think my own brother could help catch an important criminal like that. OOh, I bet the killer is in league with that horrid Sirius Black! Maybe there'll be a reward.
Oh, and Mum sent us new robe pets and her new hair ribbons - they twist your hair all by themselves (and they've got an anti-lice spell on!).
