I surely didn't mean to shame you, Tyler! <g>

Susan: 
That's an interesting proposal, Tyler.  Why not, indeed?  With Molly 
& all the young folks there most of the summer to whip the place into 
shape...and with Kreacher's UNfondness for household duties anyway, 
it's not like he was needed nor much help around there.  Why DIDN'T 
Sirius release him as soon as he returned??
