Aberforth is a Ninja Wizard

( [Warded Private to Self] )

I am afraid I will not be taking the Ministry up on the offer enshrined in the Domestic Precautionary Act. My home is also my business and there are people in and out every day at all hours. It is quite simply not practical for either me or the DMLE. I will not have them running out here at the drop of a hat when I am quite capable of looking after myself.

And to be perfectly honest (and no offence to the fine men and women of the DMLE), I am far more inclined to trust my wards and my brother's wards than anything they could do. The perogative of the elderly one might say.

It has been brought home to me recently that once again, dear Oscar is absolutely right. "Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught." I believe I am proof positive of that piece of advice.

Just a reminder to anyone planning on doing their drinking at the Hog's Head tonight. The doors will be locked and the wards up as soon as the sun sets. Entry will be via Floo and apparition into the rear yard ONLY. Anyone banging on the front door will be summarily ignored and then have the wards activated against them if they persist. No exceptions. I don't care if the hounds of hell are after you. You shouldn't have been out on the full moon anyway.

Brothers. Hmph.

Death Eaters? How curious. I've heard of sin eaters but not death eaters.

Death eaters. Eaters of death. Hardly the most pleasant of images. Nor is it a name that makes me inclined to trust them. If these people they violently kidnapped were so evil and dangerous then surely simply informing the Ministry of their evil deeds and presenting the supporting evidence would have been more than sufficient?

Damn disturbing news in the Prophet. Who'd have thought in this golden age of peace and prosperity that we could have people smashing their way into homes and kidnapping people? Hope the culprits are caught quickly and justice is well and truly served.

( On second thought, I think I am more crazy than my goat )
