This ain't your daddy talkin'...

I have been on a pterry reading-fest recently because I couldn't be bothered to unpack boxes and find DVD's, an ariel for my TV or basically anything that wasn't a book. Besides, I've missed reading. So for the last few days, I've read a book a day. The Truth, Monstrous Regiment, Lords and Ladies, Carpe Jugulum...all have fallen before me. I'd forgotten how much I like them, apart from Lords and Ladies which I always love.

But I have to say, it feels wrong to still be laughing at Death's, 'THERE'S A SATISFACTORY DOG,' to Scraps, after he dies in Carpe Jugulum. It tickles me though, I can't help it.

Anyone know if the TV movie of Hogfather was any good? innerbrat? Its out on DVD and I'm trying to decide whether to get it now or not.

Hogfather was better than I'd expected it to be! Obviously, I'd have watched it even if it was utter gobshite, but I actually really quite enjoyed it. It had lost a bit of awesome in the telling, but it was still very much with the Pterry and the yay.

Awesome, thanks! I mean, I know it wouldn't be as good as reading the book, adaptions rarely are, but still. Its pterry.

Yes.

David Jason just plain knows Pterry. It's an utter delight.

(Except for that crappy piece of wood playing the toymaker)

Hurrah! I shall definitely get it then. David Jason is practically always love anyway. Thank you!
