Order Only: Sleep Does Wonders

alt_siriusFirst off: I was right about my position, I'm in Lyon at the moment. I'm sticking to Muggle areas if possible, but still spending a load of time as Padfoot just to throw things off for them.
I'm sure I got rid of the tracking charms; I haven't had a hint of anyone on my tail (no pun intended). Consequently I managed to cast a rather weak healing spell with my left hand (thank Merlin for that month when I had to go left-handed!), and found a place to kip for the day. I feel miles better.
I've been catching up on the journals, but I wonder if you'd all do me a favour, those of you who read the papers: Could you keep an eye trained for anything that might relate to what Regulus is getting up to? If I read Narcissa's journal right, he's licking his wounds for the moment. But it's only a matter of time before that maniac sends him out again, I think. For what it's worth, I agree with Frank that he'd rather not commit all these heinous acts - though that doesn't excuse him, or mean his politics have changed, but it does mean that if it's possible to somehow stop him, I don't think he'd be all that sorry about it.
I've risked coded owls to Marguerite and Fatima, so they know for sure that Nigel's gone on the run. I don't think I can chance going direct to either of them for now. Maybe in a week or two, if all continues to stay quiet. For now, I'm laying low.
Poppy, I took note of your remedy for the Apparation. It's curious they don't know it, as Regulus suffers the same problem. But I will try it at my next opportunity. One question, though: You said to chew the ginger while brewing the hawthorn. Am I to assume that I should drink the tea with the ginger still in my mouth, as well?
Last thing: Bill, I know it's risky, but anything you can learn about MLE's movements in my chase would be invaluable. Just to be on the safe side, I'm going to start carrying the journal transfigured into a pocketknife. I know you've said the Order entries can't be read by anyone not in the Order, but the last thing I need is to lose the thing to hit-wizards or bounty hunters!
Anyway. As I said, I think the immediate danger is past, but don't worry, I'm staying alert. I don't fancy getting caught with my knickers down again.
