Observations and Discoveries
Jan. 3rd, 2009 12:09 am Well, we certainly have been very busy lately. Besides tormenting Percy with snowballs, we have been exploring the castle almost every day, with everyone gone, and no classes and all. And we've actually learned quite a lot. We'll even share some of our hard earned knowledge with all you out there too lazy to go out and find things for yourselves.
- IF you know what's good for you, you won't turn the spear in the hand of the 2nd suit of armor on the left side of the main corridor coming away from the main staircase on the 3rd floor. Take our word for it. Just don't.
-The slytherin quidditch uniforms from fifty years ago look just as poofter as they do now.
- There's a ten-pin bowling alley right off that little odd corridor next to the stairs leading to the headmistress's office, the one that doesn't look like it's going anywhere. But, seriously. WHY?
-In the antechamber to the classroom next to the tapestry of the Battle of the Bloody Axes from the eleventh goblin war on the 4th floor we found quite a few cans of turpentine. Just the thing if the Fat Lady needs to remove a few stones. That way she can fit into the fetching lavender dress in the painting of the goblin market next to the arithmancy classroom.

- Peeves took us by surprise and locked us into this lovely room that smelled like rotting cheese. It was a pleasant experience. There was a grand bonfire that consumed our incredibly stinky clothes in the Gryffindor common room afterwards.
- We found the room where they keep the mousetraps. Well, George's foot found it.
-What a place of fascination, the old caretakers office. We found the chains and manacles on the wall rather intimidating, but the filing cabinets proved to be a treasure trove of information. All kind of ideas! And a few interesting confiscated artifacts. We will certainly make good use of them, now that we've liberated them.
Oh, but have no fear... never on school property. Ever. Really.
