Pimple? Scarlet?  
If you’d had the convention earlier this year, you could have had it in Christiania, in Copenhagen. I was in Denmark, but did not check it out. But Amsterdam is Dopey too.

PIMPLE!!!???!?!?!?!?!  
Absolutely no guilt feelings here - I gave you ample warning if you wanted to skip it.

Wo, do I _completely_ have my head in the sand, or what? What went on in Christiania earlier this year that I dunno 'bout? I _live_ in Copenhagen, fercryinoutfrogs (well, a suburb anyway). It’s _always_ Dopey - why particularly so recently? And how dare you come to Denmark without stopping by to say hi? ☹

Yippee! I’m going to the Queen’s birthday! I’m going to be making all my arrangements in the next few days, so nobody had better change things on me.

(Okay, so this was pointless. I’m just doing my best to push it up to the top)

Scarlet:We’ll come next time, then. Maybe in 5 years, if the world still exists.
