I have a question

[lokifan]

If, hypothetically, there was a Harry Potter con on 21-24 July 2011 (the weekend after the last film comes out), in Britain, would you want to come? Hypothetically. *shifty eyes*

[Poll #1551511]

Is this Con within driving distance, or 6,500 miles from me? :D

[lokifan]

See ETA. :)

[dysonrules.livejournal.com]

LOL! That does make a difference. And I FREAKING WISH.

Let's see, that's next summer... I could engineer and execute a bank robbery by then...

I say YES.
*nods*

[reikokatsura.livejournal.com]

Location location location... :)

[lokifan]

See ETA, darling!

[reikokatsura.livejournal.com]

Considering that's about three thousand miles from where I'm at, I'm going to have change my vote to "no". *Sighs* Why don't these things ever take place in NY?

[lokifan]

At a guess, because it's expensive. :) Shame you can't come!

[sexyscholar.livejournal.com]

Would I want to go? ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY.

Would I be able to? Probably not. WOE.

[literaryspell.livejournal.com]

This sums it up for me, too. *cries*

[vaysh11.livejournal.com]

Where are you located? With more than a year of planning possible, couldn't you make it to, let's say, London? *nudges*

[literaryspell.livejournal.com]

I'm in Canada. From what I hear, that'd be a pretty expensive trip and I can't foresee being able to afford it, though you never know! *crosses fingers and buys lottery ticket*

[vaysh11.livejournal.com]

*sigh* It is spendy. I was curious and just checked if there are no possible cheap flights from Canada to London, but it's all more than 800 EUR. *more sigh* You know what, should I win in the lottery, I'll give you the flight over. :) *buys lottery ticket every Saturday*

[literaryspell.livejournal.com]

And that's just the flight. There'd also be hotels and food and spending money... I mean, I would absolutely love to! I just don't know if it's feasible. I'll hold you to the lottery thing, though! LOL good luck! *hugs*

[woldy]

I don't know where you are in Canada, but flying from the West Coast to the UK is both really f*cking expensive and cheaper with Air Transat than anyone else. Just in case that's of any help ;-)

[literaryspell.livejournal.com]

I'm from Ontario. :D But I'll definitely look into Air Transat, just for curiosity's sake. Thank you! :D

[lokifan]

:D You are my FAVOURITE for nudging people.

[lokifan]

*cries with you* Stupid Canada. It has all these cool people in it and it won't let me have them!

If I lived near the coast, I'd be giving the Atlantic a good kick!

[lokifan]

:((

I wasn't really expecting many Americans to be able to come... but every 'no' strikes a BLOW TO MY HEART.

[archaeologist-d.livejournal.com]

I have to smile at your question. Which film? I'm in a few fandoms so I have no idea which film you are talking about.

[lokifan]

LOL, *fails*. The last Potter film. :)

[alafaye]

want? yes. of course.

plausible for me? no. barely enough money to get me to my local con never mind one across the pond.

[lokifan]

Awww, sad! Have fun at your local con, anyway. I'm having similar issues - can barely get to Edinburgh (which isn't exactly local from London, but you get the idea...) so no way am I getting to Infinitus!

[woldy]

I see that you and son_of_darkness are plotting something :-D

[lokifan]

...I have not the faintest idea what you mean. *shifty eyes*

[klashfor.livejournal.com]

Is this exclusively a Potter con we're talking about? About fannish things or canon things?

[lokifan]

Check your inbox for hypothetical answers. :)

[vaysh11.livejournal.com]

Now I said yes on both yours and Kye's poll. With more than one year in advance, I could very possibly make it.

[lokifan]

Ooh YAAAAAAY! :D Lots of warning = good.

[kennahijja.livejournal.com]

Depends on what I'll be doing then - there's a good chance that I'll be moving back to Germany in late spring 2011, and there might be something on in October, so I just don't know yet. But I'd be intrigued :).

[lokifan]

...

Moving? Back to Germany? Away from Britain's loving embrace?

BAD HIJJA. son_of_darkness, dora_the_nymph, hedonisticated and creatore_magico were all with me when I read this comment, and all agree that NO. It will be so much harder for you to come to Hallowe'en and meet-ups and things!

YAY INTRIGUED, though. :)

[girlofavalon.livejournal.com]

I wish... :(

[lokifan]

I wish too!

[lkaet.livejournal.com]

*crosses fingers* I think I need to get a better job.
This sounds like a great idea though!

[lokifan]

Heh. It'd be great to see you again! *crosses fingers too*

[koishii-hime.livejournal.com]

I would want to go~~

too bad i live in CANADA. D:

[lokifan]

STUPID CANADA. WHY DOES IT KEEP HALF MY AWESOME FLISTERS FOR ITSELF. >.

[koishii-hime.livejournal.com]

LOL I SAW THAT. AND WAS QUITE AMAZED, SINCE USUALLY IT IS ALL AMERICANS~

[lokifan]

OH, AMERICA DOESN'T ESCAPE MY WRATH. AND I WON'T EVEN TALK TO GERMANY ANY MORE.

*mutters to herself* Why can't all the awesome people live here?

[koishii-hime.livejournal.com]

D': OH I WISH I DID. Well partially~~ I mean, Britain is cool, but Canada ain't so bad either. :D

[morettaallstar.livejournal.com]

Reeeeeeeerh. Maybe. Maybe not.
It all depends on where I am at that point. Cos of Spain and Erasmus and shizzle.

[lokifan]

I hope you can! And even if not - shouldn't you be back/in Italy by July? How do Spanish unis do it?

[morettaallstar.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Italy is the best bet. But I don't even know what Spanish unis do. They won't announce dates until June.

[lokifan]

That's so late!

Are you in Norwich now?

[morettaallstar.livejournal.com]

Get back tomorrow evening. :D
The House of Queers and the House of Madness should meet up again! A Hootenanny is required!

[lokifan]

Oh, definitely! Maybe dinner next Friday? Nick should come too, cos we like Nick. Or else you guys could come to ours. (Or vice versa, but I want to have lots of people round the House of Queers before we loooose it.)

*has in no way asked the others about this, but w/e*

[morettaallstar.livejournal.com]

YES! Friday is good for me (despite work that I haven't done) and I guess everyone else will too. <3

[tuawahine.livejournal.com]

Depends on how reachable by plane it is. If it's in London, definitely yes. (Evil Rynair cancelled their midnight flights to Glasgow, preventing me from coming to Edinburgh this year. *curses*)

[lokifan]

Erm. This hypothetical con would hypothetically take place in Reading - no airport, but on a quick check it's an hour from Heathrow to Reading by train.

Also, STUPID RYANAIR. Hmph.

[tuawahine.livejournal.com]

Then I would hypothetically very probably come.

Very stupid. I used to hate that flight because it meant I had to take a taxi on the way home, and now when it would finally be useful, it no longer exists. *grumbles*

[lokifan]

HURRAY! *does a dance*

*sighs* Sod's law!
