Want to see Nobby as the Discworlds first "the bachelor"...
Maybe, somewhere in that story, put in an Igor, Foul ol' Ron and Carrot as well (I mean, it's never gonna last between him and Angua - let's face it).
Would love to see Nobby doing a rose ceremony :lol:

more vetinari being great! he should be allowed to take over one of the books, maybe seeing the grand sneer?

I must say that I did enjoy seeing the young Vetinari in the Assassins' Guild in Night Watch. And my favourite bit of Pyramids is that beginning bit at the Guild.

Me to, it gave a fascinating insight into his character. He was always set apart from his fellows even then, wasn't he? I do find him one of Pratchett's more inspiring 'I-wish-I-had-thought-of-him' first characters!

I love reading about Vetinari.
He's so devious that I'm relieved he's not real ... I think ... although it's a shame that we have to suffer mime artists.
Perhaps we could adopt some of Vetinari's 'Laws'?

I'd love to see another Lu'Tze book, maybe set in the Empire or the mountains? The early history of Lu'Tze perhaps?

Another one I'd love to see is a book about/closely involving one of Vetinari's dark clerks, the whole spying thing is interesting!

As long as they're not like James Bond! :lol:

Well I thought I'd managed to shake it, but thank you Jan, now I'm stuck with it. I couldn't stand Russ Abbot.

I did like his seeyou Jimmy Glaswegian character.

I'm no fan Tony - he pushed in front of me at the duty free perfume counter at Gatwick once!

I nearly didn't recognise him - not until after I gave him a really filthy look. He's really bald in RL! :twisted:

That's what I've heard about him - that he was very rude. I can't remember who it was now, but someone I know saw him and asked for his autograph. It did it but really grudgingly. :evil:

And think how much that must be worth now :roll:
