So is this No-Shave November a thing or is it just an excuse people seem to be making up to get a month free of shaving?

[Da]

Met Catriona McCormack at the match and she agreed to an interview so we could do a feature.

I mostly want it to flesh out our section on her and the other parts she features in on the Portree side of the book, but I figure a spread on a well loved Portree legend sold to the magazines will be good press.

[...] I have to ask. Is this many roster changes expected for the first half of a season? I know it's a rebuilding one and all but ~~David's alright, right?~~

[Urq siblings]

David, still looking for something non-quidditch?

Which is also an excuse to say: can we please do something unrelated to quidditch? I feel up to my ears in it and I wouldn't be surprised if you two were. It's inescapable right now. Even when mum took me as her date to some performance by one of her former students there had to be some gushing about that Australian teammate.

[Coach MacFusty]

I had someone owl you a copy of the spread in Seeker Weekly of our interview. I hope it got to you, the photographer really enjoyed your session.

	That does seem to be the hot topic of discussion these days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I already told them I wouldn't place any money either way. Also watch out for use of unsolicited potions and lotions on your person, is all I'm saying. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A handlebar moustache on a chair if the potion goes wrong. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So they're not betting on his beard, they're betting on if the potion will work on him.. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think this might be someone who was planning to bet yes trying to ensure their bet. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	According to drunken ramblings I overheard on bonfire night there was some talk of feeding you something. I didn't think it was serious because they were all over the eight, but if they're still on about it. don't take any chances. There was some talk about a handlebar moustache on a chair.

	[OOC: Sung ] He was a scary chair. He was a hairy chair. We beat a hasty retreat from there... .And described him with adjectives... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Me too. Which is why he needs to be careful. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	That was the point of you not drinking any odd potions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well if there's anyone you want to lose some money, Peggy and I can always tip the odds easily. You didn't answer on job or fun non-quidditch things though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Urq sibs irkuhart 2017-11-17 04:02 am UTC (link)
	I said yes! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Urq sibs ohlaird 2017-11-17 04:03 am UTC (link)
	It wasn't a yes/no question! It was A or B! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Urq sibs irkuhart 2017-11-18 09:28 pm UTC (link)
	How so? Both questions can suitably be answered by me saying "yes." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Urq sibs ohlaird 2017-11-19 05:46 pm UTC (link)
	"Job or fun? Yes." Doesn't work, sorry. It's either or. Or even 'both'. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Urq sibs irkuhart 2017-11-21 04:38 am UTC (link)
	No, you asked if I was still looking for something non-Quidditch, and then asked if we could do something unrelated to Quidditch regardless. (Reply to this) (Parent)
