I love to write. A dreamer, a creator and filled with wonder, imagination and life. Sometimes I get lost in the other worlds I've read and in some I create. It's all good, I’m in good company.

So nice to see lesser known characters taking the stage! This is a charming story and i enjoyed it immensely! Thank you for sharing it. I love it when fan fiction adds something to canon, and you have done that very well, indeed.

Pookah, Thank you very much. I'm flattered that you took the time to read this. It was fun to take a few of the Order members out of the box to play. I'm glad that you liked it. Thank you.

A lovely scene with a very well chosen set of blessfully ignorant side characters! > Arthur had even helped select the Muggle clothes.and still they were oggled at? Oh, how come??I also loved the little, general insights, like > Merlin, kids get heavy after a whileso true!However, I have a problem:Didn't they in the end fail to oblige their requirement?

Thank you very much. I t was fun writing with these four characters. They did save their charges and Apparated away. All four kids are fine. Thank you for the review.
Response from Bettina (Reviewer)
Yes, they saved the children, but Muggles noticed 8 persons that suddenly weren't present anymore. Even if they didn't see a wand or hear a plopp, it remains unreal how they can have disappeared. I need to read the requirements from the Ministry again if this is acceptable.
If that's what happens when he just sneezes, I hope he doesn't get hayfever, imagine the chaos that would ensue!

Oh, my, gods, you're right!!! 
Thank you for the reveiw. You made my night!
Poor wizards - depending on Arthur Weasley to dress them properly, they didn't stand a chance of blending in, did they?
Response from beaweasley2 (Author of A Compromising Predicament)
Well, isn't he an authority on Muggles?
I did not break it, I sneezed!!! LOL! I hope one day I'll sneeze and do something unfortunate just so I can say that. :D
Very nice, I liked it. Big points for using such minor characters. It's nice to see that not everything revolves around Harry, Ron and Hermione. :)

Thank you. I'm glad it gave you a laugh.When I read the prompt I thought it was perfect for useing the older wizards.
This is so cute. I can only imagine that happening. But the way it played out....how could they possibly dsappear without being noticed? Especially if they were seen already by the Muggles?????Great job!
Response from beaweasley2 (Author of A Compromising Predicament)
Yes, well, not all escapes are easily acomplished. I don't think they cared at the moment. Besides, there is a good amount of confusion at a train wreck. Thank you very much for the compliment and the cute review.

Nice to see some unusual characters in the mix!
Author's Response: Thanks. I thought it would be fun to play with some of the Order members and this prompt was perfect for it.
This was a lot of fun to read. I needed a good laugh today and this did the trick. I've tried to navigate the LA and NYC subway systems without much success (the Philadelphia ones are sooo much easier.) Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, I'm glad it made you smile. Yes, public Muggle transportation - I really got a smile watching the GOF-movie when Arthur takes Harry through the Underground... bit of an inspiration when writing this.
Very interesting, I loved the underground railroad! It is always interesting to see a real bit of history wove into fiction. Very nice!
