I reckon it's always an ace idea to start low when you're planning a business coup. Least it what's I'd do.
If he doesn't work out, I want to give Thomas a go. The bloke was my flatmate for a year and he's a decent artist. Besides, he might take offence if we skipped over him.
So you recommend shield charms and reinforced string to keep my head attached when I visit?
Now you're taking all the ruddy fun out of destitution.
His style now might not be what we're looking for, but that doesn't mean he's incapable of dreaming up something that is. You remember all those Gryffindor banners he made for the Quidditch matches back at Hogwarts?
You know I've no option but to accept the challenge now, yeah?
I wasn't meaning he'd make us banners, I was referencing the artwork on them. Never said we couldn't give Whistler a chance, anyroad. I'd just like to give Thomas one if Whistler's designs fall short.
Right. That's all it then and it's the raspberry crumble crunch at Fortescue's I come back for. You still want me to stay over now you know the truth?
Alright. By the way, I told Terry we'd meet with him Monday once we're through playing your dad so we can go over the details and mayhaps share a celebratory drink together as well.
Same as you've here. Book me for Monday and Tuesday nights, yeah?

No better than usual.

Are you planning to visit then?

Why'd be coming back to Blighty if I wasn't?

I don't assume that you come back for me. In fact, quite the opposite.

Date: 2007-11-17 12:27 am (UTC)Yes, I know. Artwork on a Quidditch game banner isn't fit for our venue, but we'll have to see how well (or poorly, as the case may be) Kevin does.
You know you've a place here.
