alt_narcissaIt's difficult to believe the summer is more than half over. But I'm quite refreshed and more than ready to tackle a few tasks I've been putting off.
First things first: Barty, when are you free to review the final three sites? I know Razzer can't break away but Lucius is insistent we make a decision by Monday. Bella too has been anxious to solidify the plan so she can determine whether she may easily work from there for more than a day or two. I've even got Lucius to agree to take Draco to Diagon alone if tomorrow will work for you. If that won't do then I'm sure I could arrange viewing at the weekend instead. Though we'd have to schedule round the Calderwood garden party on Saturday, but that's a simple matter.
Surprised to see Maribel Fleet at Ardenia's yesterday. I must say it made the time pass quickly (though perhaps not quite as peaceably as one might hope). I hadn't quite thought to finish Serpent's Fork so soon, anyway. She was telling me that she and her husband dined at Quiescence last week and adored it. I remembered the place somewhat ... shabby, but she said they've changed management since the epidemic and have a completely new menu and decor. Perhaps it's time to pay it another visit.
Oh, and Mr Collins, thank you for your message. It's kind of you to offer, but really, no further apology is necessary. I'm sure I didn't even recall the incident until you reminded me.

Funny you should mention Quiescence. Pandya was just telling me he'd chosen it for his anniversary and found it quite good. So you may be right to give it another go, though he was using it as an excuse for appalling numbers in last week's hex and parry trials. Said he'd overindulged.

Date: 2010-08-07 02:04 pm (UTC)It does pose a question of when to work it in. Would tomorrow early suit you? I'm sure the agency will open the places for us if I contact them straightaway.
Shall we say 8:00? That way we may still come to an agreement by day's end Monday.
