"Giddledale? How come you are going to Giddledale?"
"I have a penpal there, she's invited me, I'm staying for the festival of the Gnome Song."
"Wow! That's awesome! You can tell us all about it in Gnome Studies class! Sheesh, I envy you. Imagine being at the festival of the Gnome Song, actually! Seeing it LIVE! Wow. Double Wow."
"That's not all. I'm uh - uh - I'm participating in it. My penpal, Gwendolina Gnome, is one of the organisers. She said she's got special permission for a human to participate this year. They're - they're making - a - a - special stage for me and everything."
"You - YOU - YOU Neelandra Blockbuster, my best friend, age sixteen, are PARTICIPATING in the festival of the GNOME SONG and you didn't TELL me about it?"
"I couldn't. She had to get the permission and everything, and it had to be a secret till then. The Gnome Government is very strict about these things. I just got the call that it's all okay ten minutes ago, and I leave in half an hour. Listen, Sheela, I was going to call and tell you as soon as I'd finished packing, I promise. You just happened to come over before then."
"That's okay. This is sooooooo exciting. MY best friend is participating in the GNOME SONG festival! What are you going to sing?"
"Gwendolina's told me not to prepare anything. It seems gnomes never practise singing beforehand. They just get together the day of the concert, and the band passes thought waves to the singer, and the singer sings. I'm nervous, I've never sung live on stage before unless I know the song forward, backward and sideways!"
"You'll do okay. Sheesh. This is soooooo ..."
" ... exciting. It's not. It's nerve-wracking, from where I'm standing."
