Well, well, what a wonderful piece of news! One of my favourite people, Terry Pratchett, is knighted in the Queen’s New Year’s Honours List. Along with all those deserving post office workers, tea ladies and lifeboatmen, the Honours Committee got this one right~
Oh, yes, and I suppose it is only fair that Sir Terry’s enoblement should parallel that of his alter ego, Samuel Vimes (although Sam has made it all the way to Duke, now).
This couldn’t have happened to a nicer person; congratulations to Sir Terry and to Lady Lyn, too!
Shortfinals - aviation and more!
