alt_arthurKingsley, if you got my package with the journal and followed the instructions, you should be able to read this message by using the charm on your own journal. You can make your own journal entries using the enchanted quill, also enclosed--DON'T forget, whatever you do, to write "Order Only" at the top if you're trying to keep the regime from reading everything you say. That will keep your communications secure. It will make keeping in touch with you quite a bit safer than risking owl deliveries, and faster than relying on the code in the classifieds.
Now that we can be in better contact with you, I wanted to float that idea again that we've discussed a bit before, the Peacehaven Players. Peter Wilkerson, the Administrator of the Hambleton Camp, was moaning on again about being stuck in the wilds of Yorkshire with nothing to do but watch a lot of bleeding muggles. So I took a chance and told him that I knew a troupe of actors who might be able to come into the camp, do a bit of entertainment--and he took the bait.
Well? Shall we try it? You talked with Emmeline about the idea when we first discussed it, didn't you? She's between assignments and so would be available. I think Benjy might be game, too. Who else?
Tell me who you want me to get in touch with who could work with the troupe. How soon could you get something together to present? Two or three weeks, or would you need more time? Frankly, I think Wilkerson is desperate enough for entertainment that he won't be too picky. Give me a date, and I'll try to set something up.
Once you do get inside, try to speak with Miranda McGillicudy. She's the muggle in charge of inventorying supplies for the infirmary, and she's got a good head on her shoulders. You can trust her to give you a pretty accurate assessment of the camp's personnel.

Order Only
Date: 2008-12-03 05:58 am (UTC)I think the Hambleton camp would be perfect, really. Talked to the others and they concur. We have some stuff ready to roll, so two weeks is plenty (Benjy keeps complaining about his memory and I keep reminding him that he does not need to smoke every plant he runs across). We do have the holiday coming up, however, so two weeks would put us in the thick of the season. That be a problem for the camp? It's certainly not for us... and if we're there as the New Year begins the holiday spirit will be flowing freely (you didn't think I did this for the pay, did you?) and people talk.
So keep me in the loop and yeah, this journal thing is all right.

Oh, another thing about the journals: the commenting. As I said, put "Order Only" at the top of your journal entry. If you do that, then all the comments written in response will be protected by the lock, whether they actually say "Order Only" or not.
You CAN also put "Order Only" on a comment that you make to an unlocked post, and then only we in the Order can see it. Molly's done that a time or two to add some, er, pungent commentary on things that Lucius Malfoy has written--it relieves her exasperation a bit. But if you are commenting to an unlocked post, you have to write "Order Only" on EACH comment that you want to be protected.
Remember: one slip, and the game could be up. And Bill's life could be on the line if the lock is ever discovered by the enemy. So please be very careful.
