Life's too short to worry about sectarianism, that's for sure. I'm still in shock over the blue traffic lights though Shocked

That reminds me - I need to buy a new rugby shirt cos my old one fell to bits!

Yes the new ones are quite nice, wonder if they will change them for the six nations in 2011. So looking forward to the world rugby cup. Very Happy

Me too Very Happy I lived in Swansea when the 1999 RWC was on. It was such an amazing experience to be in the heart of a rugby nation (I supported Wales as well as Scotland ofc) and I even got to meet the Samoan rugby team.

I didn't live that far from Twickenham and used to go to the London Scottish club in Richmond which was even nearer, when we were playing at Twickenham the clubroom was full of kilts.

According to the Discworld Monthly (perhaps Jason can confirm this) the book is being released on August 23rd in the UK and August 28th in the US.

Other sites, including the Transworld site, are saying September 2nd.

Anyhow - I'm looking forward to this one as I've enjoyed the Tiffany books and the storyline of this one sounds really good. Very Happy

I don't know where I found that information now. I think I got the US date off the back of the proof.

Maybe I made the 23rd August up. Will have to have a look around tonight to see where I got that from!

As I got Hat Full of Sky about two weeks early (due to a cock-up in Tesco) you may be right anyhow. Wink
