Athena.
Pennifold tells me you owled this morning after I'd left the office. I apologise for answering here, but I haven't an owl with me. I'm afraid I can't accept your offer for tonight as I've promised to spar with Travers. I suspect that an Auror's training regimen is much like a singer's voice work: miss even an hour here and there, and one falls quickly out of peak form. In any case, I can't afford to skive off tonight even for so pleasant an invitation.
Were you serious when you said you love Quidditch? I admit that took me by surprise, but if you were in earnest, I wonder if you might like to come along Tuesday evening to see Puddlemere play Appleby. Travers, Forney and I are going and we've got an extra seat in the box. Do say yes!

It does seem odd that Lucius never bothered to obtain season tickets - but then, he never really supported any particular team, either. (He used to delight in taking the part of whichever team Father did not favour, just to raise poor Father's blood.)
I'm quite sure it would take more than the mention of Berwick Street to shock you, Barty. You're quite right, though: It was a terribly seedy part of town back then. Part of the fun was the 'slumming' aspect, I admit, though perhaps looking back, Andi had her own reasons for wanting to go.
