Fatal mistake #1: Going to the Concourse website and reminding myself that the guests of honour are Christopher Priest and Philip Pullman.
Fatal mistake #2: Noticing that there is an option to register online.
End result: I'm going to Eastercon!

(I too made fatal mistakes #1 and #2. It's so easily done!)
