The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.

  • Errol! You better hide anything edible, or actually anything non-edible too, when that one is finished :)

    Couldn’t quickly find the perfect quote, but have this lovely one instead:

    Where do you think they’ve gone?’ he said. ‘Where what?’ said Lady Ramkin, temporarily halted.
    ‘The dragons. You know. Errol and his wi - female.’
    ‘Oh, somewhere isolated and rocky, I should imagine,’ said Lady Ramkin. ‘Favourite country for dragons.’
    ‘But it - she’s a magical animal,’ said Vimes. ‘What’ll happen when the magic goes away?’
    Lady Ramkin gave him a shy smile.
    ‘Most people seem to manage,’ she said.
    She reached across the table and touched his hand.













  • There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What’s up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don’t think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass! Who’s been pinching my beer? And at the other end of the bar the world is full of the other type of person, who has a broken glass, or a glass that has been carelessly knocked over (usually by one of the people calling for a larger glass) or who had no glass at all, because he was at the back of the crowd and had failed to catch the barman’s eye.
