What a week right? Anyway thanks to Padma and her team to make sure we don't go on fire, we have our journals back. I didn't think they would come this useful.

Anyway, we've decided that we all need a break and on Friday night, we'll be Apparating to Diagon Alley and then walking into London and finding a restaurant. I can't tell you what's around the Leaky anymore or what kind of cuisine, but we'll try to find something that can accommodate us all. We'll be working with Scorpius and magazines to transfigure clothes into Muggle clothes.

This isn't mandatory, but please let me know how many are interested so we have an idea. Also this is a little experiment to see that nothing bad happens if we leave all together. It's also a little test run for more Muggle excursions.

Starting next Monday at 10 after the Heads meeting, we'll have muggle training, trying to learn as much as we can about Muggles. The hope is that we'll be able to move a little more freely.

Also starting tomorrow, Lucius will have Treasury and Commerce, while Kirley and Myron will work for DAMN (blame Parvati for this.)

Jamie

So want to look with me for clues in Diagon Alley? Unless you're busy.

You want to make an impression, you do it in person. But, there may be a way to do it without brassing off the Confederation too much.

Meet at sea. If you meet outside territorial waters, the border restrictions shouldn't matter. We're not crossing their borders and the reporter wouldn't be crossing ours. It shouldn't take much to charter a boat for an afternoon. You make your point without breaking sovereign borders, trying to fake a valid passport that will be accepted on both sides with their different requirements.

Oh, that's right. No one thought to brief you lot in the older generations about Brexit, did they? Muggle nonsense my latter years at school where the U.K. broke away from the EU, which means no more free travel between here and there with just a national card.

I mean it's a Muggle passport, how hard can it be to fake? In fact, I probably should have mine at home, magically change the date of birth. Still I don't think that would solve the problem with the confederation.

Still it seems bloody stupid to do it on a boat. Maybe they can cross on a ferry. If they want an interview bad enough, I'm sure we can find some Muggleborn to do the interview.

I wouldn't guarantee it. Technology changes faster in the muggle world than anything else and your passport at home would not only have an outdated expiration date, but an outdated electronic chip. If they even use paper passports now. They were moving to electronic passports kept on your phone in 2028 using...bio-something. I forget the word. But, like fingerprints and eye scans like some of the muggle spy films.

Meeting them halfway might go over better. But, we can see if we can find one that seems brave enough to make the trip here. Let me look into the outlets and see which reporters have the reputation we want. Might take a few days.

	This is very annoying. We'll need to see how we can create fake identities. The other countries must have a way unless now they are registering wizarding births in the Muggle world. All right, see if you can do it today so tomorrow we can go to Diagon Alley. (Reply to this) (Parent)
