Everybody makes mistkes. Mine was writing my secret in this book. So now I'll try to right my wrong by explaining. Don't blame my Mum. Even though I do.

Eight years back my family was in thw worst debt the had ever been in. All of the kids were still at home, none of them were making livings, four of them were still in school, so my mother went to Amos Diggory, then manager of London Wizards Trust&Savings, to ask for help. I don't know what happened after that except Mum got her money and nine months later a baby boy was born. We gave the baby up and we have no idea where he is or what his name is or if he's still around.

My secret, my shame
