family did not feel that his behavior was suitibly... sedate and
servile... enough for them.  He served well, but they said he was a
little strange in the head for them.  (They said he would have been
better off as the Elf for a travelling circus troup than a Pureblood
family of their noble stature.  So they gave him his first vest.)

that he was given clothes, but he must truthfully admit that he is
happier being his own Elf because he is allowed to have a sense of
humor and allowed to have fun.  Much like Dobby, who's example he
followed, Iggy decided to humbly seek employment and came here, where
they happily hired him.  Humble Iggy gets one Galleon a month, one day
off a week to have fun (which he was ordered to do, although he felt
that one day a month would be more than enough), and enough fabric and
yarn each month of his chosing to make three vests, and six socks.

Carol:
Does Iggy wear a tea cozy (or "cosy," I guess, in the British
editions)? Also, if he'll forgive my asking, does he wear a tea towel
under the vest and shoes with the socks? And what is his idea of fun?

Carol, who thanks Iggy for the laugh and hopes he will tell her what a
tea cozy is
