Diagon Alley Ski

Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

Diagon Alley Ski

Diagon Alley Ski Lodge

Flopping down on your couch, you begin rereading the Harry Potter books for the gazillionth time. Just as Harry’s finally going to Hogwarts, you’re interrupted by your parents calling you to dinner. You set down the book with an annoyed sigh, deciding to keep reading after dinner.
Returning to the book, you notice a strange lump between the pages. You excitedly flip through to find what seems to be your Hogwarts letter! Opening it up, you read the following, written in familiar loopy handwriting: 

Dearest CBer,
This is not your Hogwarts letter.
Sorry.
It is, however, an invitation to the most marvelous experience you could ever dream of: a month’s stay in none other than the Leaky Cauldron, for 15 people only (not including companions). All supplies will be provided, and yes, the popcorn is free. Just fill out the attached forms before the slots are all taken. We await your owl!

Hmmm. You know, I think the way I filled out the sheet didn't give the best impression of my personality. I am not usually that sarcastic-sounding (though it's true that I think Harry Potter is dumb and derpy. I don't actually dislike him though. Ron is even derpier.) I think if you want to know what my personality is really like you'd better look at my AEs, not my personal sheet.

Have some more lemonade for your additional troubles
