Andrew didn't object to school, but he sure liked weekends better. It was just a slight crisp to the Saturday air, but the sunshine was so bright and pleasant that Andrew felt that the outing to Hogsmeade was going to be well worth it. He simply put on a longsleeved shirt over his t shirt and followed the pack to the village.
A great majority of the mob headed to the Three Broomsticks, and another part of them headed to Honeydukes. Andrew's plan was simple. Blend. He went into Honeydukes and in the wall to wall clan inside, no one even noticed him filling up a canvas messenger bag with all variety of sweets. Being a pickpocket had distinct advantages. He liked the challenge of it. And then he did something immensely oxymoronic. He slipped the right amount of galleons for his booty into the clerks' apron pocket. He didn't intend to actually needlessly swipe from someone. He was just practicing.
Once he had what he needed, he simply left and found a street bench to sit on. He got out a licorice whip and took a bit out of it, considering a mug of butterbeer and a plate of decent fish and chips next. There were some things that Hogwarts, in his opinion, just did not excel in.
