Today Lars could be found in Hogsmeade. He was at Spintwitches, the local shop which sold sport goods. He was pleased to see that a large part of the shop consisted out of all sorts of Quidditch supplies.
He looked over the shelves until he found what he was looking for. He had nearly ran out of Fleetwood’s High-Finish Handle Polish. Lars took good care of his broom, so he didn’t want to risk being completely without the proper equipment to do his job. He took two of the largest jars from the shelf. That way it would take a while before he had to go out to buy some again, plus it was cheaper if you went with the bigger jars.
The only thing he really needed was this, but whenever the Dutchman was in a shop like this, he couldn’t help but look around for a while. His eyes travelled over some silver Tail-Twig Clippers and a stack of Do-It-Yourself Broomcare Handbooks.
Then he reached the part of the shop that interested him the most. Several broomstick models were hung on the wall. Lars stared at them for a while, identifying them as his eyes slid over them. Except the last one. That was a broomstick he hadn’t seen before. Must be a new model, he thought. One glance at the thing told him it was of high quality, too. He reached out and gently ran a hand over the smoothly polished wood of the handle. Yes, this was one fine broomstick.
