I have been thinking a lot about what to do about the collapse of the 2007 Eastercon. As most of you will know, Eastercon has no constitution. In true British style, if there is a problem with the succession, the only thing to do is fight over it. I’m therefore suggesting the following course of action.
Two rival 2007 Eastercons will be created: one to be held in Lancaster, the other in York. Both will be known as Rosecon. UK fandom will then spend the next 32 years fighting over which of them was the legitimate Eastercon. Eventually a Welshman called Llangfud Tewdr will prevail over all opposition. Rumors that Tewdr had Tim Kirk and Chris Bell murdered whilst they were prisoners in the Tower of London will persist long after his death.
Damn, but I love your sense of the absurd. Keep it up lady!
Sounds like a plan.
However, we all could go to Åcon instead.

Let me get this straight, you’ve made Hal Duncan Guest of Honor for a convention that is going to be located somewhere that you can get duty free booze…
Hmmm…if I went to the York con, I could crash at my mother’s place of an evening…
If all else fails, we could always hold Eastercon in my flat. Sure, it’ll be a bit cosy, but that’ll just add atmosphere. Plus it’ll propel me from the ranks of utter nobody to notorious uber-fan in the course of a single weekend! [steeples fingers and cackles]
