Well, what an eventful Christmas and New Year. I was glad of the break, I must say. I shut up the shop on Christmas Eve, after the last frantic shoppers had finally left, and headed over to Moddey Dhoo for what was a lovely few days.

I'm glad to say I was able to take a little of the leftover stock with me - just a few bits and pieces, food, spices, and a few toys for the children. The rest is currently piled high in the shop, ready for our January Sale. Bargains galore!

This mess with the Prophet seems to have everyone on edge, especially the halfbloods. It seems the article has forced the Ministry's hand in at least admitting there's something going on and, perhaps, dealing with it. Unfortunately their idea of dealing with it seems to be arresting people.

Do we know who's been taken in? It sounds like that Sandoval girl helped set a few up for appointments with the Aurors at the St Mungo's gala. Poppy, is your friend from St Mungo's all right?

What a way to start the new year.

I wish I knew for certain what's become of Antigone Cantwell. I received a firecall from St Mungo's yesterday, and it was Healer Wentworth, asking if there were anything I needed to start the new year and informing me quite matter-of-factly that he will be my new standard contact going forwards. I did ask why the change, but he would say only that they've undergone a bit of 'restructuring' recently. I didn't feel I could press for anything more.
