Mr Webster,

I must congratulate you on your recent promotion. I can only imagine the heartbreak you have caused amongst the students at Hogwarts who will not be able to sit their apparition tests with you! I suppose finding someone who would not be cast into shadow by Mr Parkinson’s curls cannot have been an easy task, but I am sure your hair shall be able to hold it’s own.
 
If you are free, I am sure my brother would be delighted to entertain you for dinner with us next week. We are living with a friend of his at the moment who would be a most useful contact for you to make, should you need some motivation.

Miss Ysabella Allegri

Miss Allegri,

I apologize for how long it has taken to reply to your letter! Some of my mail got stuck in the old office, and I've only just now gotten it. If the invitation still stands, I would love to come for dinner - if not (which is very understandable, given the gap) I must thank you for your letter nonetheless.

Sinc.,
J. Webster

Mr Webster,

My two months of crying myself to sleep shall be quite forgotten if you have no plans this Monday. Is there any food you are particularly fond of?
