There have to be extra crisps here somewhere. Oh! When did you get here? Has it been long? It's great to see you. Not that it's been that long, still...Happy Hanukkah? |

Draco, Thank you for the invitation. We'll be there. I'm sure that Hagar and Vince will love the bonfire. Greg Goyle |

We are having a small Hanukkah celebration at our flat next Saturday at 6 with a few people from our synagogue and wanted to know if you would like to attend. There will be some games for the kids and some other fun for the adults. Hope you (and anyone you'd like to bring) can come. Greg Goyle |

Jo, It just occurred to me. If you don't have any other plans, Rachel is making Thanksgiving tomorrow and I'd love it if you came. It's more your holiday than mine and I know it'll make Rachel happy to have people over who celebrate it. Make it feel more like home. Dinner's at 6. You don't have to bring anything. Greg Goyle |

Chris, I've been checking the weather and saw that it's cold enough that you should have opened the slopes for the weekends. I just wanted to make sure you had everything well under way. Make sure the concession staff is ready to go and that you are well supplied there. People get hungry when they ski. (And think of me when you eat a cheesesteak). The snow making charms need to be refreshed every week. Jimmy doesn't always do it so keep on him about that. Also, order another case of floo powder sometime around mid January. We always run out in February. Just say hello to everyone from us and let them know that I'm sorry if I've caused any trouble. Let Jill know that especially. I wouldn't want her to think I'd bailed on her on purpose. The kids are doing brilliantly. Vince and Hagar are going to daycare nearby my job at the Ministry and the twins aren't giving Rachel too much trouble. She's actually got some time on her hands and is thinking of doing some research on charms that give her some trouble. Well, have a great season and thanks again for picking up the slack for me last year. Greg |

| So it turns out Sal has a hawthorn allergy. His lips got all swollen and his hands had a bit of a rash to them. I really should keep a better eye on my things. Especially now that the twins are a little more capable. | ||||

To: Jo Trilby, office of the Minister From: Gregory Goyle, Accountancy, Magical Games and Sports RE: Celebration plans Bagman is hard to find when you need him. As for the budget, there are no real funds allocated as the department has run itself into the ground. I would be happy to speak with you tomorrow about both the operating funds of Magical Games and Sports and the Gala. Gregory Goyle |

Draco, I apologize for the long delay. My wife came over from America and she put me on a tight schedule. But she's letting me plan my own time now. I was good so she lengthened the leash. And work has been crazy, but I'm around now and can talk anytime you want. It'll be fun to see you again. You've got to see my kids. They're cute! |

Rachel moved the kids to London and is living in my flat, but she's making me sleep on the couch. I deserve this. I deserve to sleep on the couch. I deserve to sleep on the floor. I'm lucky to have the couch. I am lucky that she lets me be near the children and doesn't divorce me. I am extraordinarily lucky that she allows me to "see to her needs." I am a right bastard and deserve nothing more. The twins are fantastic and Hagar is looking more and more like her mother which is good because no little girl wants to look like me. Oh and her mother is the most gorgeous woman ever to grace the world and I should bow down and praise God that she ever allowed her genetic material to mix with mine. I'm also having a bit of trouble with work. Bagman thinks he doesn't need to worry about money. If he didn't need to worry, then why did he hire me? if only this war hadn't started up again. We were so close to buying our own place and now I have to be someone else's employee. Oh right, but I deserve it for being a lying fraud who sought to trick the government of the greatest nation in the world that my children are lucky to be citizens of. |

To: Ludo Bagman, Head, Magical Games and Sports From: Gregory Goyle, Accountant D.M.G.S. RE: Celebration proposal Mr. Bagman, I looked over the proposal and the memo from Jo Trilby. There is no way that we can finance something like this as we have no money at present. We are currently in debt to the tune of G500,000. We have no funds set aside for this. Our budget is maxed out and we are just managing to pay all of our employees. In order to finance this, you will need a major influx of funds or it will not happen. Greg Goyle Accountant |

So I finally got this thing that Draco sent me working. I miss Rachel. She always turned on these things for me. And she's just perfect. She's so tiny and mean. There was never a more beautiful woman in the world. Especially when she's pregnant. She just gets this glow about her that's amazing and her breasts are just. She might be reading this. I shouldn't write things like that up here. So, work. I got a job at the Ministry of Magic as an accountant for the Department of Magical Games and Sports. I have never in my life seen such badly kept books. The last accountant they had put a charm on the books 16 years ago and then pretended to work. Anything that wasn't there originally was put into Miscellaneous. They put a stadium in Miscellaneous. Everyone's salary is in miscellaneous. And things aren't labeled properly. They kept no receipts that I can find. There's an entry that says "A Blue one" for 1000 galleons. A Blue what? I miss the Poconos. Our books made sense. I shouldn't have come back here. I thought I would fix things and be home in a few weeks and now I'm stuck here. The ministry hasn't said anything about my being not dead which is good. Maybe they didn't notice. Or didn't care when Homeland security informed them. I wonder if I could convince Rachel to move here. |

Draco, I told you all this already. I saw you in Italy. We were in Italy. You stuck something in Vince's pocket for me to give to Snape. Did you forget? Did you get obliviated? Proof. You want proof. You threw out my teddy bear. You said that you couldn't have a friend who was eleven and still had a teddy bear especially when he was already as big as I was.

Rachel, I'm not a terrorist. I'm not. I swear I'm not. I guess I was once. But everyone told me that's what we had to do so I did it. I'm over here to try to keep us safe from it all. It's not working out so well. But I did get a job. I'm working for the Ministry of Magic as an accountant in the department of Magical Games and Sports. They really needed an accountant. They've been using a charm to keep track of finances. Anything that hadn't been in the charm originally ended up under "Miscellaneous" which includes salaries and works projects and just about everything. It's going to take me years to go through. I miss you. Don't hate me. I was trying to fix everything. I didn't want you to think badly of me. Vince is good. He got a bit taller. He also turned my shoe into a frog yesterday. I think he misses you. He's in a good daycare. I love you. Greg |
