Gold - think pretty sure it will be platinum though

I'm interested in attending but won't be able to know if there's a clash until a couple of months prior. You can put me down as a tentative yes for now (if there's still availability).

We booked on double status. Now I don’t think Mrscove will attend as she likes being with our granddaughter more.
We will stay at the Adelaidean which is next door to the Crowne Plaza in Frome Street.
That reminds me I should buy some IHG points at half a cent US under their latest offer.

Well we all knew there would be something like this or a Red Tail Sale of some sort announced in the immediate aftermath of a DSC promo.

Gold...
Really great timing. Yet to see ADL, and attend my first AFF annual!
From there straight to Melb Cup week. Perfect.

I'm out unfortunately. Husbands birthday around that time and he wants to go to Bali.

Then let him go to Bali .... why correlate his birthday destination with your non-attendance at this auspicious event?

Yes, I was thinking that the timing of dropping him off at the airport is unlikely to be at the time of the dinner.

Can't wait to see you and M in your cosplay outfits! Any favourite characters?

Oh, was this for me? Not sure we'd bring the Teen for this, and there's a good chance they'll be in another place, doing one of the few things on their radar that ranks above cons and cosplay. Keeping it vague for now!

They did an awesome Lilith from Hazbin hotel for Goldnova this year. Hope they wear it a few more times, a LOT of effort into making the horns and getting the wig right. Mumma Katie made the dress.
