Order Only: Safe in Suffolk
Well, relatively safe.
Narcissa wasn't kidding about Harry's protection detail. They've got three of the things in the marshes, just outside Aldeburgh. Nasty, particularly as that's about where I'd planned to base myself. After dark I'll see if there's a likely house in town to use. And yes, I'll be careful. I'm not going back near the marsh, however, if I can manage it.
No sign of Harry yet, though. I think by the time I arrived in the vicinity they'd left that fish and chip shop for wherever it is they're staying.
The young woman is rather attractive, though. But don't worry, everyone: It sounds as if she's got quite enough admirers. I wonder if she's kind to animals, though. If she'll give scraps to a stray, then it's a good chance the boy will come back before their holiday's over.

What news?
We'd have heard, I hope, if they'd caught you, so I assume you are spending your time wagging your tail at would-be benefactors and sniffing for information.

I've figured out which houses they're using - not hard at all, it's on Crag Path just across from the water. My cousin does have excellent taste, I'll give her that. But there are two empty houses to either side of the three they're using. And the third one's in use: Rodolphus arrived today with the rest of his and Bella's brood. No idea how long they'll stay, but no sign of the wicked witch herself.
Twice today I saw MLE leaving the third house and Apparate away. I'm betting they're checking on the marshes, keeping the creatures from encroaching on people as they head out in the morning and return in the evening. I imagine it's tempting for them, particularly when the fishing boats come in after a full day's sail.
I finally caught a glimpse of Harry, walking on the shore with that Draco. Didn't want to risk getting too close, though. Then Malfoy and Narcissa came out as well, so I was just as glad I hadn't chanced it.
No sign of any other uninvited guests.
