Yes, thank you all. I had no idea anything was planned, and then to see you all there!

Hermione, I hadn't realised our birthdays are so close together. Many happy returns.

Sirius, it worries me a bit that you managed this surprise without tipping your hand at all--you, too, Remus Lupin: should I wonder what other mischief the two (or three) of you might be getting up to while my back's turned?

The cake is so lovely, Molly. I had seconds again tonight. Did you put some sort of replenishing charm on it? Because there's enough for tomorrow's tea, as well!

And Alice, I'm thinking still about what we discussed. Thank you.
