This is the first full week of classes at University of Guelph. Lots of students bustling about, which always cheers me up.
In 2014, which was the university’s 50th anniversary (it had been an agricultural college before that), a giant brass statue of a gryphon was unveiled at the entrance to the campus. A gryphon is the mascot for the university’s athletic teams.
At the time, I thought it was a sort of silly looking thing, but it’s really grown on me. It certainly took off immediately in becoming the university’s favourite site for having your picture taken in your graduation gown with all your pals. Ten years later, it’s become one of the city’s best known landmarks.

I think Booky has the instructions on one of his Magic cards.
I go walking around in the early hours. Students don’t wake up before noon.

sprinkle 1 cup of the blood of a movie reviewer, on the 13th moon of the year and sing “Fiddle dee dee” for 13 minutes. Then watch out!

Might fly off to Scotland and do some damage over there.

Glad you didn’t go with the Gryffindor/Harry Potter/Hogwarts thing. That’s what I thought you were going to do.
