That’s a wrap on trimester 1! Adios cows, sheep, pigs and poultry! I’ll miss you when we start horses in a couple of weeks, but for now I’m certainly not sorry to see the back of those horrendous exams. Now I can indulge in a nice two day break before I begin work on my research project and start another week of placement. No rest for the wicked!
The words are enough to send a chill of excitement and terror down any vet student’s back. This is the year vet students fondly refer to as ‘hell year’, for reasons I’m sure will become evident within the next few weeks.

Summary: Hogwarts, September the first, 1997. Harry Potter is new to to seventh year and Draco Malfoy is the infuriatingly arrogant Slytherin set to make Harry's coveted time at Hogwarts a living misery.
