My office is now effectively at a standstill. In fact, my office is probably moving slightly backwards. It has not helped that a five story rack of filed mail collapsed under the weight recently, thus shuffling several thousand documents into new and interesting combinations. Right now it is a good day if we can answer…

Terry this week visited Professor Stephen Hawking who is celebrating twenty years of a Brief History of Time. A truly humbling experience.
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…
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…

Folks, Well, there were around three million viewers of the documentary, which seems to be well received so far. Of course, this means yet another towering wave to the tsunami of mail that constantly crashes down on this office. Can I add that I am astonished at all the possible claimed causes of Alzheimer’s that…

12th December 2007 AN UPDATE Folks, My good friend Sandra Kidby of PJSM Prints is allowing me to use her website because I am proverbially too busy to run one of my own. We have hardly the time even to read the thousands of messages that have come in here, let alone reply to them,…
Folks, I would have liked to keep this one quiet for a little while, but because of upcoming conventions and of course the need to keep my publishers informed, it seems to me unfair to withhold the news. I have been diagnosed with a very rare form of early onset Alzheimer’s, which lay behind this…
