-Can't Speak French-

Ministré de la Magique, Rue de la Colombe, Paris, France

1st May 2004

As I walk into the Cabinet de la Ministré de la Magique pour le France, the office of the Minister of Magic for France, I see my wife, Fleur, talking to my father in law, Jean-Claude Delacour.

Unfortunately for me, I can't speak French without a Translation Charm active, but what little I do know, it pleases me to know that Fleur loves me more than life can ever be!

I have a meeting with Monsieur Delacour in my position as Ambassador for Magical Britain to France, so I apply the Translation Charm to myself, mainly so I know what the hell he is saying!

The meeting lasted longer than what I wanted it to, meaning that I would have to stop overnight at my father-in-law's house, instead of the house I brought in Kent for the purpose of commuting using the Dover-Calais ferries, then a spout of apparition, thus legally bypassing the requirement for an international portkey.

As I take the portkey from the French Ministry to the Delacour Manor, I bump into my wife, who it seems has some news for me.

"Kevin, Mon amour, je suis enceinte." Fleur said. "I'm pregnant!"

As I fainted, I remembered I can't speak French, but even I know that when my wife tells me that she is pregnant, fainting is a typical response!
