    The Wee Free Men, which I had to google to remind myself of the title
    and I've now seen on Wiki that it's "the second Story of The Discworld
    book for younger readers".[1]

    At least I could tell! :eek:)

    [1] It also says that it "enjoys a large adult readership".

    Pratchett
    Well there you go then, that is a kids book.
    I often think there's a lot of adults that would benefit from reading
    the more morality tale kids books. The first Pratchett kid's one
    Maurice and his educated rodents is good for that.
    Well done, have a cookie.
    You should try something like The Truth, Monstrous Regiment or Thud.

    I'm wondering how many in jokes in the new one I'm going to miss,
    given it has a football theme.

    Maybe, one day.

    After Pratchett I had a complete change of tack and read The Secret
    Life Of Birds by Colin Tudge. I want to read The Secret Life Of Trees
    now.
    OK - maybe that one then!

    that article is inaccurate - it says the 1st ANPR cameras in Wales will be
    mobile. The first cameras are already installed. Although, as they are on
    the M4 between Newport & Cardiff I suppose they aren't controlled by the
    Welsh Assembly, as motorways come under the Highway Agency. Variable speed
    limit signs are next, apparently.

    Like the country's best ever road, the "Cat & FIddle" in Derbyshire.

    Totally fucked by camera's that can see you going into an area and popping
    out of the area later and all the time you're there, go past any other
    camera and your average speed throught the "managed area" is now known to
    those who send out fines and points.

    Fucking perfect.

    So making your average time to get between "A" and "B" too fucking long.
    But of course, it doesn't affect your concentration or enjoyment in the
    slightest.
