Private message to Bill Weasley

First, do you know when Corax is going to be done with those files? (You don't have to ask him! I'm just wondering if you have any thoughts on what he wants them for. Whether it would help if I asked him nicely if I could have them, or if I'll get them faster if I leave him alone.)

Second, this is sort of a random question but I really know absolutely nothing about animal husbandry and I know your family keeps goats. Do you know offhand whether goats are more or less expensive than other animals, in terms of the food they eat, the supplies they need, and the veterinary healing they typically require? I mean, if you compared a herd of goats to a herd of cows, which would you expect to be more costly in the long term?

I don't report to Corax, and this isn't the sort of thing I'm trying to stamp out.

But someone must have bought the kits, arranged the training, and distributed them in the camps. Was it your father?

He knew about it. After the fact. But he kept it quiet.

As to who did the implementation, I don't have any idea. Someone in Muggle Domestication, I suppose. Dad was only the Liaison to that Department, so HE didn't have any oversight into their budgets.

I wonder if it's someone who's still there.

They've had a bit of turnover, these last few years.
