I hope this works. I wasn't sure what to follow 'as well as' with.

I don't think Sirius would risk the farmhouse, but maybe a barn or other outbuilding.

NON-POST

Hi Julia and Verity. Muggle life has been very busy lately and haven't had time to read the posts here. I don't have an idea of the source of the muffled noises, but I just wanted to post that there have been 323 posts / 1,615 words so far. [(21 pages x 15 posts/ page= 315) + (8 posts on page 22)]. Typical stories usually end at 2,000 words - which would be in 77 posts - but I suppose this one could go longer, if the compiler doesn't mind.

LOL, PAH, no, the compiler doesn't mind at all. Potty Game: Five Words (Vol. XVIII) - Page 13 2752390508

(I haven't done much compiling yet, but I know it is my job this time. Perhaps this weekend I'll have some time to start it.) I quite like the idea of a longer story for once, and I must confess I have completely forgotten to consider the number of posts in it.
