Lord Harry Potter

Day Five Guest arrive

Harry awoke the next morning to find Hedwig had brought him mail in the night. Two letters one from Luna and the other from Neville stating they'd arrive by lunchtime today. After walking down to meet the others for breakfast Dumbledore went to finish the ballroom, Dobby and Winky were set to the visiting suites, the plumber and electrician worked on the higher floors and Harry called 2 groups of painters through the floo, one tiler, a carpet layer, a piano tuner and an elf who cleaned chimneys. The Trio eventually sorted out another visiting suite and by 10 had decided that shopping couldn't wait till Friday as supplies were scarce so Monday was fixed on instead.

At 11 and 11:30 Neville and Luna arrived.

"Hello Neville, How are you?" Inquired Harry extending his hand and shaking Neville's while greeting lune with "Welcome Luna, Its lovely to see you." Followed by a kiss on her hand. "Hermione and Ron" He also introduced to which Ron cracked up at Harry's "Posh" introductions.

After a quick round of explanations and a small lunch Harry gave Dobby instructions for a dinner for 6 at 6pm.

"Tomorrow well rest and maybe have a go at the garden, Neville you wouldn't know how to move a tree 10 feet would you, only its blocking the back kitchen door?" Harry asked

"Easy Harry" arrived Neville's reply

"Good, Now lets show you your rooms and we'll finish the guest suites today with five of us."

To which the five trouped up stairs and found another visiting suite had an odd cupboard that had a beehive hiding in it.

"Great!" Harry Groaned

But still they set to work tearing down the curtains that had mushrooms growing in the creases followed by the bedding and what they assumed were once cushions before banishing the pile they had made. Ron's repairing was getting better and he managed all the windows in record time, the en suite mirror was cracked but when Ron attempted to repair it the spell bounced straight back at him.

"New mirror to the list Harry" yelled Ron from the behind the bath were he'd taken shelter. Neville had managed to drag the mattress of the bed and Luna was replacing light bulbs. Hermione had gone to find the mop for the floor which turned up to be cleaning a ceiling on the fourth floor.

At 5 they had finished 2 suites for the day and Hermione urged everyone to rest a bit before dinner and after a thourgh wash they made it to the parlour just in time for Dobby to say "Dinner is served".

"So Neville hows the holidays been?" Ron asked

"Pretty good Gran's so proud of me she's been heaps better"

"And what about you Luna what have you been up" Asked Hermione

"Dad and I went on a holiday to America for a few days looking for the red fire Frisbee but we think it was to cold so we came back" Luna said to which Hermione coughed which sound suspiciously like "Whacko"

When they finished all the teenagers went to Ron and Harry's room to have a chat before bed and start on the scotch which Hermione had pinched glasses for.

"Well bottoms up" grinned Neville and downed his quickly "Arghhhhh Yuk"

The five talked into the night slowly drinking down the bottle, Neville and Ron got into a standoff and tried to drink the other under the proverbial table before Ron passed out. Eventually at 2am they walked(staggered) back to there rooms and rested until the late hours of the morning.
