Today I asked Professor Lockhart how soon he thinks they'll catch that horrible Black fellow who keeps invaiding our journals.

He said they were sure to find him and if he was posting to say that they haven't yet, it must be because they came close. He said that if he weren't teaching, he was sure he'd be able to discover Black's hiding place in a trice.

But my brother says Black's a dangerous criminel and he wants to kill the Lord Protector. Professor Lockhart must be very brave if he would go after someone like that single-handed! But then I guess he's done so many brilliant things that catching Black seems like its not much of a task.

I dont know why everyone is so worried about Potions when weve also got Charms and Transfiguration and Herbology to get through, too. I mean, Potions is basically following recipies, but Charms and Transfiguration really take concintration.

Morag and Belinda are getting much more excited about Christmas than their exams. I'm just looking forward to going home for a bit, even if Haruman will probably call me 'Parvati' just to be annoying and Sanji will not want to let me or Parvati out of his sight.

Lavender, did your mum talk to you about maybe sleeping over during the holidays? Mum mentioned that you might want to and that it would be okay with her.

I don't think they'll ca

I think you're right that he wouldn't say 'you didn't catch me!' if they hadn't almost caught him.

He writes like he's not actually here, in England I mean. Or Scotland either for that matter. He says 'you' instead of 'us' in places where it doesn't make sense. If he's not anywhere here that must make it harder to catch him though of course they will eventually.

At least if he's not here he can't turn up here at Hogwarts. I felt much better when I realised he must be writing from somewhere very far away.

Though perhaps that's selfish of me. If he were close by he'd be much easier to catch. But I want him to be far away so he can't so he won't because he makes me nervous.

I think you're right about the journal being a trick, and that was very clever of the Lord Protector and Magical Law Enforcement even though I don't like it when he writes something and it appears in my journal. I reckon it'll be worth it if when they catch him.

Even if you follow the instructions for making a potion really carefully it can still end up botched, and its mad, because you stare at your cauldron wondering why its wrong when you've just done everything the instructions said. Mother says that just looking at a potion the wrong way can make it go bad.

Maybe that's my problem, I knocked over my cauldron on my very first day and I've been worried ever since I'll do it again.

Mum's given me money to go shopping for clothes. But I don't know what to buy. Do you have any suggestions? I think everything I own is dark colours and it gets boring.

This sounds intriguing.

Can she do anything with my hair?

Mum's hair is long and I used to plait hers.
