Barry, as was usual for him, had been held up after practice. All was not quite well at Kenmare these days, and admittedly, his mind was a little distracted - so when they were all finally out of their playing gear, a muttered conversation in the corner of the changing rooms with two of the team's Chasers served to remind him of an important decision that would have to be made. Soon.
With this in mind, he was a little distracted when he eventually arrived in Diagon. He'd taken a portkey over the Irish Sea to Liverpool (a distance he could easily have apparated, but in his current state of mind there was a risk he'd have ended up in the docks) and then the Floo network down to the Leaky, a journey usually saved for particularly special occasions. Would this count? It would be interesting to see...
