Thanks :) Friendship is one of my pet themes and it was fun to open it out here.

Ah, all too many nights, I've stumbled home from work to find my housemates cooking for fifteen people when all I wanted to do was buy a sandwich and hide from the world. The odd dinner party is nice but the whole three-a-week thing can get wearying.

I'm sure pureblood families make their children attend formal events and expect them to behave impeccably. I'm sure there and manners and habits ingrained in both Sirius and Andromeda that their loved ones can't understand.

Thanks for the comment :)
