Did I hear someone mention Jigger and a Potions assignment coming up? I must have fallen asleep again.

Tryouts are early in September. I reckon between double AF&T James can already tell I'd give him a run for his galleons on the pitch. But don't worry, I'm not going to bother this year. Wouldn't want to steal someone's glory, or anything. I bloody love that class, though. Advanced Flying & Techniques, I mean. I'm waiting for the day that Hufflepuff girl, McKinnon, knocks Rosier right off his broom.

I'm taking bets. If anyone would like to make a wager, I'll be in the common room for the rest of the afternoon. And Gideon, if you or your house mates are interested, you can find me in the Great Hall. Same goes for you, Hufflepuffs, or any Slytherins who agree Evan's a git.

The first Hogsmeade trip is the eighteenth. If any ladies would like to wager, I'll consider taking the winning bettor.
