<p> The Owl’s letter delivery service part 2</p><p>A brilliant designer has come up with a letter carrying pouch which would enable the owl to carry all of the letters in one go instead of him having to return to the Ministry of Magic every time.</p><p>A route planner has worked out the distances between each house – see the diagram below. It is not possible for the owl to travel between a couple of houses because the trees are too high and there is no light for him to navigate safely.</p><p>The solid line arrows show the routes back and forward from the Ministry of Magic.</p><p>The arrows with the dotted lines show the shortcuts that the owl could make to save him having to return to the Ministry.</p><p>1.
