School owl walked out into the sunshine. She was in a bitter mood. Her other classes had not been going well. "Welcome to Art of Flying. This is where you'll learn about the art of flying as well as it's history." School owl said in her nicest voice.
"Now, this lesson is a history one, so there will be no need for brooms or wands. Please pull out a peice of parchement and a quill and take notes. I don't have Seer blood, but I feel this will be on a quiz of yours." School owl said at an attempt of humor.
The students would have to sit on the ground, but she didn't care. "Records show that witches and wizards flying broom sticks as early as 962 A.D. The brooms were rather uncomfotable and left their users with splinters in their bottom. The brooms were made out of a thick knotty handle of unvarnished ash with hazel twigs bound to one end. In the early days they were used for transport, but by the 12th century, the brooms were more comfortable and were flown for pleasure rather than from getting from point A to point B." School owl said.
"Who can tell me the Scotish wizard writing in 1107 whom spoke of 'splinter-filled buttocks and buling piles'?" School owl said sharply.
((Ah, I feel evil today! Sorry! You will probably need Quidditch through the Ages by Kennilworthy Whisp (they're really written by J.K Rowling) for this class. If you already have it, the answer to my question is on page 2! I guess I'm in a better mood than I thought.))
