That was some curse on that fork, mate. I figured just turning it to a spoon would work, and Professor G did say we were supposed to change the objects as minimally as possible, so that would've been fairly minimal. Do you think he'll deduct points for the number of tries we had to make? Because I went through drinking straw and ladle before I decided to transfigure it into something that wasn't tableware at all.

Just wanted to say well done.

Hey, did Crabbe ever figure out the trick to mine? I was concentrating too hard on yours to see how he was doing.

Thanks. Ron's was like something his brothers would have made -- a little drawing of a cat that chased itself off the page, and if you flipped it to see it on the other side it did something to your hand. (I guessed something would happen and was careful, but I asked Ron later and he said I'd have grown cat's claws on my fingers. I'm a bit sorry now I didn't flip it.)

Crabbe was clearly out of his depth with this exercise. After the second time he got water all over his shoes he turned it into a hammer instead of a bowl. I suppose that solved the problem of it not properly holding liquid, right?
