Oh dear. Oh dear. You now have a conduct report, and I sincerely hope that your behaviour is going to improve.
You will go back to your House, and consider your appalling turn of phrase. I am very very disappointed in you.
(How do you work these Emoticon things?) No.

Having more money doesn't make you happier. I have 50 million dollars
but I'm just as happy as when I had 48 million.

Oh dear. And to think that all this started with an announcement of the death of a venerable and highly respected Headmistress, who I guess would not have grasped the last few postings, even if she had understood the internet, websites or discussion forums.....
