The YouGov poll, commissioned by the Alzheimer’s Research Trust, found that 42% of the UK population –…

Going Postal

Terry opened a new display called ‘What the Victorians Did For Us’ at the Bath Postal Museum today. It’s well worth a visit to see for yourself the birthplace of Discworld Philately. Also, Rod Brown and Ian Sharples from the Mob Film Company presented Terry with draft #1.0 of the Going Postal screenplay. We wait…

An April Update From Terry

The Oldie

The Oldie

Last Wednesday I received an award from the Oldie as their Campaigner of the Year.  Personally, I think 60 is too young to be old. However, I did learn from Sir Terry Wogan that the collective noun for a group Sir Terry’s is… a pride đŸ™‚

The Lunar Eclipse

We visited Sir Patrick Moore to witness the lunar eclipse from the garden of his Selsey home. Totality wasn’t until 03.00am and so there was plenty of time to chat and eat a rather splendid Astronomer’s Chilli. And as this was an evening celebrating our return to the moon, Terry presented Sir Patrick with a…

Buckingham Palace

February 17th 2008 Buckingham Palace As most of you probably know by now, we had a grand day out at Buckingham Palace where the Queen wielded a magic sword and turned Terry Pratchett into Sir Terence.  And, believe me, it certainly looks like a sword when it whizzes past your ear. The event was followed…
