CHRISTMAS!
HEAR YE, HEAR YE! It's time for CHRISTMAS! Oh, all right, it's a bit early, but I DON'T CARE.

I want to take this opportunity to invite EVERYONE to Grim Cottage for our traditional Christmas OPEN HOUSE. Come by ANY TIME AT ALL -- the floo is open and the gate wards are ... well, not completely down, but I've taken all the trap charms out of the garden so nothing should grab you if you drop by without warning. From now until New Year's, we welcome EVERYONE with OPEN ARMS. The kettle is on, the butterbeer is warming, the elf is going mental in the kitchen with feasts and treats. You should see our goose -- it's so big Wort can sit atop it like a pony!

You may be recruited to help with decorating, but it'll be BRILLIANT! We can even sing CAROLS and drink RUM PUNCH -- Godric knows we still have plenty of Barbados rum! HA!

We have so many reasons to celebrate. For the first time in a very long time, PEACE ON EARTH is more than a wish. Well, except for the usual Muggle squabbles, but they don't count.

As for GOOD WILL TOWARD ALL MEN... Harry: yes, you can bring Lumpy Stumpy if you must. You can even bring along the Malfoy maggot, as long as you bring Edward and Lily as well.

	And this year, I promise not to sing! Well, not too loudly, anyway. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	BOLLOCKS TO THAT. Sing you shall! And you MUST taste the punch I'm making when you're home from work. It's my SECRET RECIPE -- mostly because I can't remember what I've put in. But it's DELICIOUS! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Merlin's beard, Sirius, what do you think you're doing? You know when you... wait, did you mix in some of that tequila I brought back? That's pretty good stuff. I mean, of course I'll... Aww, bugger it all. I'll be home shortly. Just save some for me, okay? And don't drink too much! We're going to visit Severus tonight. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Tequila? You mean the bottle with the worm? I think I emptied the bottle in. I know I ate the worm! HA! But don't worry, there's plenty for all and most especially for you -- ESPECIALLY if it inspires your rendition of "Here We Go A-Wassailing"!

We can spend the evening convincing the fairies on the tree to --

wait, what? We're visiting Stumpy tonight? Oh, bloody hell. I'm going to need a LOT more punch. HA!

	Sirius, love? Just how much of this "punch" did you make today? And is there anything non-alcoholic in it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I MADE PLENTY FOR ALL! I put in some fizzy lemonade and chopped up a few oranges and limes and dumped them in as well. And there are ... ah... other things. I forget.

You must do something about this bloody elf, mate. He started screeching about a mess in the kitchen and I told him it's my bloody kitchen and I'll do as I please and now he's banging his head against the wall. It's fucking annoying.

	Sirius, stop teasing Tully. Why don't you send the poor thing off to do some shopping or something? Just a moment, there's another girl here who has some questions. I'll tell you what, I'll pack up my things here and come straight home. Do you want to go get a tree tonight after our visit? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	SHOPPING! BRILLIANT! I'll do that straight away. And we should DEFINITELY pick up a tree. A HUGE one for the library. And we can pop to London do some Christmas shopping as well and have a late supper on Diagon Alley. How's that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It sounds lovely. Wort will love it! I suppose it'll be fish and chips again? Or something a little nicer this time?

And you are NOT to let her try to cut down the tree herself this time. I don't care how adept she might be at magic, it's just too dangerous.

Oh, do you know where my red wooly jumper is? I couldn't find it this morning. The one with the huge snowflake on the front and the deer on the back.

Do you think it's a good idea to bring Wort? We can't exactly shop for her if she's with us, can we? Besides, I don't like the idea of her spending too much time surrounded by Malfoys and Snapes. It can't be good for her.

AND if we don't bring Wort we can have a romantic dinner all by ourselves.

The red one? Didn't that get burned in the Great Chestnut Roasting Disaster of 2006?

PADFOOT! Are you suggesting that we are going to leave OUR cub out of the Christmas Tree selection process? Do you have any idea how long we would hear about how horribly damaged she was due to being left out of the expedition?

Hmmm... romantic dinner with just the two of us?

Okay, we visit Severus, go get the tree, then send Wort and the tree home with Tully and you and I can do the rest of our shopping and have dinner? Sound about right?

	DONE! Come on, mate. Tell the little buggers to do their own research and come on home. You can tell me if I've added too much cinnamon to the punch. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The little buggers, as you call them, are my job, if you remember. ... I'm done. I'll be home in five. (Reply to this) (Parent)
