Pratchett gone.

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[Ashberto]

:cry:

[Classic Jorge]

In fairness, I imagine they f**king are given what he must have made them over the years.

Without wishing to speak ill of the dead (but here goes anyway) I could never really get past the hat, I must say. The beard was bad enough, but the hat just screamed 'c**t' at you, didn't it?

[Brentwood]

[Supermac1976]

tbf though neither did he in last few months. :hide:

[Berni]

Just as I'd got into him, as well. There I was looking forward to him finally delivering the Civil War Flashman book he'd been teasing us with for years and the old f**ker goes and dies. Bloody selfish.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

With thon queen chucking people off rocks?

[Classic Jorge]

I doubt his ***** hat is even cold

[Berni]

Queen Ranavalona. Mental, she was.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I expect he was. Living in a fantasy world and so on.

[Ashberto]

Granted, some of them were wearing silly hats, but his best characters were a copper and a conman.

[Classic Jorge]

[Berni]

In fact...

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

No wonder he topped himself.

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

and, sad to say, she's really let herself go.

The fat, ball-breaking bitch.

[Berni]

I never really got into the rest. Who is this conman fellow?

[Ashberto]

Also in Raising Steam but that was his last one. Did well to get it written at all, really.

[Luis Anaconda]

At least that is one left :-(

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Never heard of the bloke mind you.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

That's what makes it fun.

[Monty91]

I'm having major anxiety about what to order in Hawksmoor tomorrow.

Porterhouse for two? 1kg jobby?

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Bone marrow to start, naturally.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[Monty91]

We shall see about that, my eytie chum.

I have, however, decided that no sauce is ever required with a good steak. In fact, the only reason it's traditionally provided is to conceal the poor quality of the meat.

[Berni]

I can get down with a bearnaise, mind. Although that's mostly for dipping your chips in, really.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

English mustard? On a porthouse steak? Just how much of a savage can you be?

[Monty91]

[Berni]

The beef's ghost cries when you eat it without English mustard. FACT.

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Look at it.

You have dissed the beef. This is almost as vile as calling my wife a div.

I spit in your general direction.

[Monty91]

But thank you for pressing home the point

[Berni]

You wouldn't dream of eating a ham sandwich, a cold sausage or a pork pie without English mustard, would you? The same goes for rare beef. It is written and so mote it be.

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[Berni]

grace. Chapeau.

[Monty91]

You know we might as well all just pack up and go home after that

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

That sounds a bit murdery :-(

[Berni]

A sort of 'Ur Mum' joke, if you will.





f**k me. Even if I say so myself, that's rather good. ;-)

Got to have mustard in a beef sandwich
