John occasionally liked to come out to the pub in Tadfield just for a change of scenery and a break from the usual (and of late, unusual) goings-on. It shouldn't come as a surprise that another Manor resident would be in the same habit.
He knew well enough the look of a bloke on the prowl, having been said bloke on numerous occasions, so in spite of the matter of the hexed mistletoe still to be addressed, he didn't immediately greet Sirius when he caught sight of him at the bar. He just took a seat a few stools down and ordering a g'n't. They didn't stock Glenlivet, and he'd been put off his beer by recent events.
If the stick-wielding ladies' man* was looking to score a real prize around this place, though, he was likely to be disappointed. Lower Tadfield boasted slim pickings unless you were looking for your basic wholesome-girl-next-door type to settle down and raise a crop of sprogs with.

*Well, that was the impression John had got, coming across him in a state of liplock with Pepper before Christmas.
