Can any of my Potter-inclined f-list tell me roughly when/which month the first Hogsmeade weekend usually takes place? I was thinking November? Maybe October? I vaguely recall Hallowe'en in Hogsmeade but there is every chance that was a fic and not, in fact, canon.
Also, did anyone greet this news with a bit of a shudder and stern shake of the head? Just me then? A HP prequel... When I read this I thought it would be Marauders era and I punched the air, as that's what comes to mind when prequel is mentioned. But it's Harry-living-under-the-stairs era. Glorious. (/sarcasm) It took me several tries to get through the first part of Philosopher's Stone with 'La la la Harry under the stairs with spiders, it's such a sad situation that you must feel for him instantly and bond and blah blah blah.'
Anyway, I don't think it be as twee or kid-aimed as the first bit of P.S but all the images in my head are of abuse!fic. The Child Called It-Potter style. I don't know why, but it's all I can think of. I'm sure it'll be Harry's first bit of magic as a child or whatever because at 800 words how much can you really fit in?
EDIT: I is dramatically wrong. Huzzah!![[info]](https://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
carawj pointed me towards this article and it's set three years before Harry's born and concerns James and Sirius. Muchos thankos.
Spent the morning with the puppy and the hose. Bad idea. Now soaking.
Scotland are kicking off a meaningless friendly with half a squad of players in 45 minutes (4.30 on a Friday is such a bizarre time for a friendly). I feel that we may get gubbed. I don't particularly want to watch right now because I'm busy writing (hence the Potter related research) but I will. It is Scotland, after all.
Oh, and does anyone want to read Image of You in Russian? Soon coming in German. Shame I can't speak/read a word of either but still quite cool.
