Private Message to Percival Weasley

[alt_narcissa]

Mr Weasley,

I wonder if you would be so kind as to consult my husband's calendar for Friday next. The Hawkinses have invited us to a small supper party and I seemed to recall another engagement but for some reason neither Mariposa nor I can find any note of it.

And if we are able to accept, would you mind terribly making sure he has nothing immediately prior? He does have a tendency to book himself right up until the last moment - particularly if it means avoiding Selma's idea of apéritifs.

Unless he's available to ask now? I do so hate to interrupt him, you know.

Mrs Malfoy:

Mr Malfoy is in a meeting at the moment. This one I am reluctant to interrupt, as it has already been rescheduled once or twice. to accommodate. It started off rather later than expected, too, as Mr Malfoy returned to the office running a little behind his own schedule.

But upon checking his calendar, I do not see any conflicts with the date that you mention.

Do you...do you need me to inform him that you will be accepting the invitation?

Oh, yes, do you mind terribly? That would be lovely. Tell him we needn't arrive too early or stay too long.

You might tell him that Reginald Branstone will be there, by all reports.

Thank you, Mr Weasley.
