“DON'T THINK OF IT AS DYING, said Death.

So unless you love Terry Pratchett you are trolling???

No, you're trolling if you use an RIP thread to tell everyone (repeatedly) you never read any of his books but they sound rubbish.

Too true but wasn't the battle bread wielded rather than eaten?

Battle Bread, hovis have missed a trick there to.

Indeed it instantly took you back to every stale bit of bread you had ever handled.

Mort was the first one for me. A mate was reading it and when I asked what it was about he said "Death's apprentice. Him and Death have just gone for a curry."

The closest I can think of is if Douglas Adams wrote fantasy. Nothing like Tolkein.

But you're just trolling anyway.

And in a very warm room at that.

Reaper Man and Night Watch remain my favourites. "No one is actually dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away..."

Such sad news.

I started at the beginning and have read them all. Marvellous books with some brilliant one-liners. One of my favourites that I use all the time is that "One in a million chances happen nine times out of ten."

Another good one gone . Terry Prachett has died

I rather liked his books.
I wonder if Death came for him personally...

Yes and I realise I've spelt his name wrong !!

And there is already a thread about it - I need a lie down !

You seem to be taking the news particularly badly Pogle.

I need to build up my collection of the 'classics' which is probably the first 20 or so... ideally paperbacks with the Josh Kirby covers.

I am! I think a vodka and carrot juice - hold the carrot juice, is in order
