Subject: RE: BS: Terry Prattchet and folkies
As has been pointed out, TP pokrs fun at everyone and everything , with folk music and morris dancing, it's direct, with others it might be a slightly 'back handed' swipe.

Favourite Book?: Night Watch, it's slightly darker than most (I remember I first read the "They're remembering who they're not singing it with" line on 11th November - timing or what?)

Favoutite characters?: Death (very popular, it seems) and Vimes ("Hi, I'm Sam and I'm a cynical bastard!"), oh and Cohen the Barbarian.

Identify with?: I'd like to say Carrot, unfortunately, I'm more like Colon.

Least Favourite Book?: Monsterous Regiment, it seems weak in comparison with the rest of the canon.

Regards
