I still can't believe that the Falcons came all the way out to our camp for a demonstration!  They did flying practice with us too, and one of their Chasers actually gave me some tips on technique!    As much as I love the Cannons, it was pretty wizard to see how another club does things.

The scenery is really pretty here, and it's easy to imagine ( Read more... )

I didn't know anyone at all liked the Cannons, and it turns out that Weasley does and now you. What's that about?

Oi! Watch what you're saying about the Cannons, you!

I mean it's easy to root for the Magpies, but they're dead boring, winning all the time. There's no suspense in that. Or Puddlemere. Like watching porridge bubble. My Dad says that with the Cannons, it's about heart: they play every game like it's their last and they always break your heart in the end.

So, yeah. I suppose it's a what do they call it? an acquired taste. Not everyone's got the steel to be a Cannons fan, you know?

I don't think there's anything wrong with supporting a legacy of success, but anyway my team is the Falcons, because they're the roughest. Now that's fun to watch.

There's no suspense with the Cannons, either - they always lose!

But they could totally win at any time. And it will be much more meaningful when they do, eventually. I mean, can you imagine how wizard that'll be the next time the Cannons take the league?

You just have to take a long view of these things.

And, yeah, I guess if you like to see people get their heads cracked and their arms dislocated, there's loads to watch at a Falcons game. I can see that, actually. I was sorta surprised they were so, I don't know, normal when they were here. I mean, listening to their games on the wireless, you'd think they eat school kids for breakfast!

Hey. I didn't know you like the Cannons! 'Let's all just keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best,' yeah? Heh!

So are you going swimming this afternoon? My group, some of them don't know how to swim, which I guess they can't help, or the others don't want to ruin their hair or whatever. I guess Stebbins and Capper are going, and I don't know about the rest.
