Hogsmeade, Here We Come - Yeehaw! Who:Everyone! When:Saturday, October 25, 1976 Where:Hogsmeade village What:Hogwarts goes to Hogsmeade
The first Hogsmeade visit of the school year was always an exciting time for the students, their first real break of the school year until Christmas hols. And of course the chance to see the all wizarding village and do a little shopping, and a lot of eating, was always an enticing proposition.
Minerva, as deputy headmistress, was always in charge of the students who were going, while Albus stayed behind, most of the time, although there were times when he managed to steal away and spend some time with his paramour. This was not one of those times, however. Minerva assembled the students in the courtyard prior to their leavetaking, reminding them that a signed note from home was mandatory, while Filch glowered at them, as if to intimate that anyone found not in possession of said note would be staying behind with him. Albus stood at her side, beaming genially, even as he slipped her his private request list for items the couple were out of.
Minerva clapped her hands for their attention. "Now, ladies and gentlemen, remember that you are representing Hogwarts, and that the things you do reflects on the school. I expect you to be on your best behaviour. Now, go, and have fun!" Was she winking, or was that something caught in her eye? And whose hand lightly flickered across her derriere? Why, Albus, you sly fox!
