One of the Horntail's got loose earlier this month.  The same day that Alicia...

One of the other tamers was killed.  Alfred.  A nice bloke.  I was so busy with the dragons, I didn't even hear about Alicia.  Didn't even think about the fact that we were supposed to meet for lunch.  I just blew her off, thought she was mad at me, and that's why I hadn't heard from her.  I didn't see the paper until a week later.  Missed the funeral.  Haven't even...  I don't know where her grave is.

Dilly broke.  Between Alfred and Alicia...  He got a job in San Fransisco, at the Magic School, teaching Care of Magical Creatures.  I think it's a better fit for him.  I've taken over the lease on his flat.  Never even managed to tell Hermione that I was moving out.  Should have at least owled her.

Barely even had a chance to open Christmas presents.  Two tamers down.  Maybe I should owl Joscelin Jones to see if he's ready to return home.  Brilliant tamer, the Welsh Preserve could use him.


Need to owl Mum and Dad, let them know that I am still alive.
