July 17
Fabian and I have returned from our camping holiday in darkest South Wales. A bit of spelunking, a bit of getting away from it all, a bit of hiking, and a lot of ancient woodlands and picturesque ruins.

Even a few of the Welsh were there, if you can believe it!

What did we miss?

[Warded to McGonagal and the Brothers Prewett]

Headmistress,

Fabian and I have found that our improvised method of map-dowsing was successful. It allowed us to locate Bangor Tewdws, which, when we announce the finding, will be the foremost discovery of magical archaeology of the 21st century. You may need to give us endowed chairs in archaeology and establish Hogwarts' claim to the site through us to keep it from getting ruined. Fabian will probably want to negotiate terms with you.

On a very practical note, the method we've got will be ideal for finding the horcruxes, but we'll need three things.
1: a related artifact to use as the dowsing focus
2: a large scale map
3: a high-ceilinged greatroom in which to spread the map.

Can we ask you for the loan of the Hogwarts commons and the Sword of Godric Griffyndor? We will give them back when we're done.

	Caradoc ~~doesn't~~ didn't have the palaeography we have. But his Welsh would have been better, you're right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, there's only a passing similarity between thousand year old Welsh and Welsh. Do you remember him correcting me when I tried to pronounce Cor Tewdws for the first time? I thought he'd pop a blood vessel. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My Core 'To Do's include figuring out how not to embarrass myself in Welsh and determining if I have to move to Lantwit Minor now that we've made the discovery of the century. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Your first To Do should be remembering that Llantwit Major has two Ls. I'll leave the twit pun as an exercise for the student. I thought you were going to go for Wizengamot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I was distracted by the minor twits. If you're going onto the Wizengamot, you've got to have a power base from which to ascend to heights. Dumbledore was Headmaster, High Mugwump, Chief Warlock, and had time to run a highly sucessful secret order. Wizengamotting isn't a full time job. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So I get to be the solicitor and the law librarian or something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Those are good options. I'm sure you can come up with some suitable academic title that suits you. Bursar, Dean, Prince of Whales, you can practically write your own ticket. We might make Rabbit the Rector, just becuase he'd enjoy the title. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He'd want to be the Sinister instead and thats my job. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
