Umm, who are you quoting? Quoting yourself is done as a "post".
If Sophie is historically a no-show (some people even realize this when booking - LOL) then here is an idea, don't book her. It is matter of economics; supply and demand. If a business is not open when the customers come calling then they will find an alternative. She doesn't need a lechure. Besides that, she didn't have to respond and very few MP's do. Let it be and appreciate it if you can get to enjoy her company when possible. If that is too much trouble then get a girlfriend. Me ... I choose the cute, cute Sophia who is also concerned with the ever-sweet, Joy. Being concerned about you lugs, that is fine but showing concern for our Joy, this is a healthy priority. Sophie has it right.
