HELLLLLOOOOOO! I'm awful I know, I was on holiday and had no interwebs for ages so I'm sooooo sorry that this hasn't been up sooner, but it was my top priority after homework, which I may or may not have just finished last minute...
Thank you for sticking with it and waiting patiently for the next installment and here it is! Hope you enjoy!

Dear Harry,
Thank you for helping me! I'd begun to give up all hope of you replying, and knew that I deserved it, but you're the best cousin in the world! That sounds really mushy but I mean it, you're great.
So, how's life with you? What's it like living a full wizard life? Cho said that you're married and you've got a little boy, congratulations!
Big news too, Cho and I have been together for 5 years now and, well, I wanted to know if there were any traditions in the wizarding world about proposals? I don't really think there would be, but I want to do it right.
Thanks again for your help, we should really meet up soon, I would love to meet Ginny and James!
Yours,
Dudley
It was short, but Dudley wanted to get the letter off with Harry's owl, Tonks, as soon as he could.
"Dudley, I'm going out, do you want to come?" Cho shouted from the living room.
"Okay, I'll just send off my letter. What are we going to do?"
"We're going to pick up some stuff from Diagon Alley and then going to meet my parents at the Leaky Cauldron for a Butterbeer."
There was a pause as Dudley remembered Diagon Alley, he'd been there before, but tried to decipher everything else she'd said.
"The Leaky Cauldron is a pub, and Butterbeer is the best drink known to wizards," Cho explained
"Better than that Firewhisky that you let me try on Saturday?" Dudley joked. He gave Tonks the letter and went to get his coat.
"Yes!" Cho laughed and they went out of the door hand in hand.
"Harry!" shouted Ginny.
Harry almost fell over as a toy broomstick went swooshing past him. It could only go about 3 feet up in the air but was pretty dangerous if James was on it. Andromeda and Teddy started laughing but had to try and catch him when he almost crashed into Arnold's cage.
"Yes, sweetheart?" Harry peeked around the kitchen door where Ginny was rushing about trying to pack up all her notebooks.
"I'm going to interview Viktor at the Leaky Cauldron on being a manager for the Bulgarian quidditch team. Thought you might want have a Butterbeer and a catch up."
"Yeah alright, I'll get some Floo Powder, have you been taking some tips from Hermione recently?" he asked, as Ginny's broomstick fell into her small handbag with a soft thud.
"What? Oh the handbag thing, yeah, I wanted to make it bigger and she told me about her little beaded bag when you were on the Horcrux hunt. My broomstick needs a touch up on the paint work," she called to Harry, who was getting ready to jump into the fire. "Ready?"
"Ready. Oh gosh, remember the first time I used Floo Powder?" he joked.
"Yes!" Ginny laughed and they stepped in one after the other.
