    Snows, Heat Wave Disrupt Ministry

    Climate Woes Make Mischief

    Business as usual saw itself disrupted yesterday at the Ministry of Magic, when a prankster in Magical Maintenance (whose name has not yet been released) decided to fiddle with the climate spells in place. Unfortunately, he lacked the necessary skill to not make everything go horribly awry, resulting in a near-complete shutdown of the premises while maintenance and the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes worked to set things to rights!

    Various areas of the building saw weather ranging from severe heat to light rainfall, from white-out blizzards to eerie fogs.
    _____________________________________________________________

    Most notably, the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures first saw itself buried in three feet of snow, only for a bout of heat to set in, melt it all, and flood the floor!

    Non-essential employees have been given today off while the building is cleaned up for the second time this year. Fortunately, there were no deaths reported, though no fewer than five employees suffered from heat stroke and one gentleman lost a thumb to frostbite.

    LLOYD NEWLYWEDS DISAPPEARED

    No bodies found

    T he Lloyd family are officially announcing the disappearance of Mr. Ianto Lloyd and his wife, Mrs. Etcetera Lloyd. The couple married back on May 1st, in a ceremony that many may recall as quite eccentric. Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd then set off to their honeymoon to South America, Peru, to be particular, and were supposed to return nearly three weeks ago.

    Not only did their family not receive any words about extending their stay, but, after contacting

    _____________________________________________________________

    the hotel the newlyweds were staying at, they were shocked to find out that Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd disappeared without trace in the end of May!

    They apparently left the hotel on May 29th for what was supposed to be a day-long trip on the mountains. However, the couple never returned from that trip. Investigations are currently being held.

    We can only offer our sympathies to the Lloyd family during these hard times.
