Alice had been taken with Frank right away, from the first time she saw him perform an acrobatic Snitch catch during a Hufflepuff versus Slytherin Quidditch game in her last year at Hogwarts. He had a carefree flop of tawny hair, a chiselled jaw, and a nose so bulbous it earned him the nickname "Frank the Conk’. But he took it all in good humour, revelled in the mirth and always volunteered to be Rudolph in the Christmas festivities at school.
