  1. Nice to hear from you Ela :naughty: I think Granny Weatherwax and Sam Vimes are probably my favourite characters too.

     

    By the way, I live not very far from Uffington, which is where the White Horse in your siggie is. Have you seen it in real life?

     

    Its very difficult to make a decision. The characters are all very unique and fantastic. But Sam Vimes and Granny Weatherwax were to special to love them not.:wub2:

     

    Oh really? You live near the Uffington horse? Oh wow, thats wonderful. No I wasn't there before. My first trip to England was because of a Mika gig in London this year. But I would love to see it and to see more of England of course!:blush-anim-cl:

     

    Did you know Mika quote a sentence from a discworld novel? He said in one of his blog "The possibilities are endless!" And Moist said the same nearly at the end of "Making money" as he spokes about money which could talk! I didn't notice it! It was my husband. :naughty:

     

    Hahaha. That was the same for me. My boyfriend introduced me to Discworld and we've been married for 12 years now! Welcome to the thread.

     

    Thank you for the warm welcome Chickadee. 12 Years! not bad:thumb_yello: It seems it was a mild punishment. Congrats!

    We've been married for 10 years. What you deserves it what you get!:naughty:

     

    I'm sorry when I answer so late or seldom. I'm not that often here on the MFC. I'm mostly to busy at work. So please be patient. I will answer but it takes time.:blush-anim-cl:

  3. Hi, my name is Ela and I'm diskworldoholic:wink2:

    It was my boyfriend who infected me with Terry Pratchett and the Diskworld novels. As a punisment I married him.:naughty:

    I don't read all Diskworld books yet but I'm sure I will made it.:bleh: My problems are that I read the most in my mother tongue German. So it could be I know other names for the books and characters. Please be patient with me. Since 2 years I'm try to improving my English with reading books. Any books? Nooo! Mostly Diskworld novels. To read them in two language doubled the fun and the amount of the books:naughty:! And I can answer to the question concernig the translation of the jokes. It depends who translate the jokes. But honestly its better to read it in the original language. Its so much funnier. Some things are simply impossible to translate.

    I love all characters of the diskworld but some a bit more than others:

    Granny Weatherwax, Sam Vimes (I looove the guards), Captain Carrot and Angua, Lord Vetinari, Susan Sto Helit, DEATH, Tiffany Aching and the Nac Mac Feegles, Moist von Lipwig......to be continue.

     

    I would like to thank Silver for sending me the link to that thread:wink2:

  4. I'm happy Obama won this election. Its a good sign. He will for sure not be able to change so much as we may wish. Its a really hard work and needs for sure more time than 4 years. But only to see the american people dared to vote for a young and non white man gives me so much hope for the world.

    Congrats Obama!:thumb_yello:

    Sometimes I'm proud of the human race.:blush-anim-cl:

  5. Hi Sarah, welcome to the club.:biggrin2:

    I saw him in Frankfurt! It was sooo awesome and incredible! What a perfect show!!:wub2:

    Ich glaube Du wirst hier sehr viel Spaß haben:punk:

     

    Love Love

    Bye

  6. Hello Nel,

     

    I read your story for the first time now. I'm so sorry for you and your family!

    I will pray for you and I will light a candle.

    I wish you all a lot of strength in that bad situation.

     

    A huge hug

    Ela
