"OKAAAAAAYYYY, class!" Vindictus exclaimed and clapped his hands as he turned around moments after Tate left the shed. "Good job in identifying the different parts of a broomstick. Those of you who answered will be receiving points for each part you correctly identified."

He pulled out his wand and the hovering brooms zoomed back to their storage place against the wall.

"It is important that you care for these different parts of a broom or else they can become weak and eventually break . . . which would be dangerous if your broom broke apart while flying. Grab a broomstick servicing kit," he said and with his wand, pointed to the boxes that suddenly appeared on the table.

"I want you to trim the tail twigs, polish the broom handle, and clean the metal foot stand and the metal band that holds the tail twigs in place. Get started!"



OOC: This task should be at least 3 separate posts of you cleaning your broomstick. Points will be rewarded (maximum of 5 points will be rewarded for this task). I'll resume with the next set of instructions tomorrow when I get home from work (around 9pm EST).
Well, Well this was an interesting turn of events. Professor Vindictus would also be filling in, in Herbology now. For the missing professor. Missing Herbology professor? It was never a good thing for a staff ot student to just go missing espeically at Hogwarts. But hadn't the herbology professor not been here all term?

Caroline thought all of the missing professor stuff for a moment. Her mouth was probably hanging open and looking out in a daze. What was wrong with her? She had been acting weird this whole lesson. lesson? Oh yeah She was in a flying lesson. She shook her head. That was a little better.

She got up and retrieve a broom serivicing kit for herself. She opened it up and looked for the set of clippers. 'There we go', taking the clippers from the kit. Wow this broom really needed a servicing. She stood up, to get a better view of the tail of the broom. She was short and figured that this would be the best way to go about this.

She measured a small section of broom straws and even them out to where the ends looked nice and new. She rotated the broom a little and done the same again, measure the ends even and snip. Pretty soon one side of the broom looked almost brand new. She rotated the broom around clipping some extra un even pieces off. She took one last look turning the broom over, checking for even--ness. Ok, looking good, she said to herself nodding. She was pretty proud of her work.
