- A chum of mine was sledging down Claxby Hill. We had a very long, homemade, Norwegian-style sledge...
- No, not there. Over here. No, sit beside me.
- Okay.
- Something to drink?
- Three Butterbeers, and some ginger in mine, please.
- Oh, bloody hell. Slick git.
- Honestly, Ronald, they're only holding hands. And snogging.
- I'd like to leave.
- What? You can't be serious.
- That happens to be my sister.
- So? What if she looked over here and saw you snogging me? Would you expect her to get up and leave?
