Finally, though I own it for some time, I've managed to actually read Thud!
Oh, it's fantastic, isn't it? The Vimes books are still the best - I mean, the witches make a close second, but Vimes will always be the best

This seems as good a place as any to put my very first signature:

Never the least stir made the listeners, though every word he spake
Fell echoing through the shadowiness of the still house from the one man left awake
It's the feeling that there must be some unknown story behind the poem that is so intriguing... A very brief extract from Walter de La Mare's 'The Listeners' - lovely poem, not sure why I like it so much, but it is one of my favourite poems.
