All the little angels rise up, rise up

Am guessing it's to do with the genius that was Terry Pratchett?

Didactylos · 24/05/2020 23:25

I even changed my name back for the occasion

ErrolTheDragon · 24/05/2020 23:31

Thanks for the reminder, I'd lost track of the date.

Well it's all clear now.

They rise up knees up...

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 24/05/2020 23:43

I'm (re)reading it at the moment. Looking forward to finishing it tomorrow and wearing lilac.

RustyBear · 24/05/2020 23:45

Discworld must have either a different climate or a different species of lilac, as my lilac tree has always finished flowering by the 25th May.

I will be re-reading Nightwatch tomorrow

BSJohnson · 24/05/2020 23:48

Just finished rereading it. Am going to plant a lilac one day...
