He admired good handiwork and he didn't know many people to modify a broom to suit any particular need. "Not much family to be with." He didn't give any indication to relations but he looked toward Aberforth and tilted his mug. "Aberforth here might as well be my granda for how much time I spend her during the holidays."
Aberforth gave a derisive grunt with his back turned.
