The UK's largest history festival lands in Broad Chalke, Wiltshire this summer. Of course the Chalke was home to a certain Sir Terry Pratchett, renowned history buff and legendary writer of books. With such festivities in Terry's back garden, what could be more appropriate than the presence of his own shed! From designs by Paul Kidby, Evil Harry Dread's Shed of Doom will be built at the festival, through which visitors can enter a recreation of Terry's writing chapel. If you missed the Terry Pratchett: Hisworld Exhibition, it's another chance to visit your favourite author's place of work. With talks by Rob Wilkins and Paul Kidby, it's sure to be a fitting celebration of the man in the hat in the glorious valley he called home! Tickets go on sale in April, keep your eyes peeled for updates on the festival Website here:

Today is a sad day. It's been three years since Terry passed. But Terry didn't let sadness pass unquestioned. He fought. Today we'd like to use our humble platform to encourage as many people as possible to do the same - for those still living through the dark times. Learn, support, discuss, donate, share.. do whatever you can... Terry was a patron of RICE - The Research Institute for the Care of Older People, their site is a wonderful place to start learning what part you can play in the fight. The Alzheimer's Society Dementia Friends programme (https://www.dementiafriends.org.uk/) provides simple, practical advice on how we can ALL help, and which will genuinely aid you in helping people suffering dementia continue to enjoy their lives and continue being an active part of our communities. A Dementia Friends face-to-face session takes about one hour, and everyone will take something away from it. Get involved. Get your workplace involved. If you can't get to a session, their site is full of resources, accessible to us all. The National Dementia Helpline (0300 222 11 22) provides huge solace and understandable information to those experiencing dementia, their carers and their friends. It allows people to ask the most distressing question from the comfort of home, they need support to keep providing such an outstanding service. We can't yet cure this embuggerance... but there really are a hundred ways we can all help right now. If you're remembering Sir Terry today, do so with great fondness, respect and admiration... and please, do something to keep his fight going.

There's no post leaving the Emporium today folks! The weather has made it unsafe for our noble post persons to collect our mailbags and deliveries have been cancelled in many areas. We apologise for the inconvenience and hope you are all either keeping safe and warm or enjoying the thrill of hurtling down a slope on a tea-tray.

"The Discworld - flat, circular, and carried through space on the back of four elephants who stand on the back of Great A'Tuin, a turtle ten thousand miles long, dusted with frost of dead comets." ~ Terry Pratchett, Pyramids. I received this glorious Great A'Tuin statue this morning from @discworldemporium. I'm amazed at how much detail there is in it, from the meteor-pocked shell and the water flowing from the Rim to the geography of the Disc itself with its well known areas such as Cori Celesti and the Circle Sea clearly visible. It shall stand pride of place with my beautiful @gollancz Collectors Discworld books from now on. . . . #DiscworldEmporium #GreatATuin #ATuin #SpaceTurtle #Discworld #TerryPratchett #Rincewind #GrannyWeatherwax #NannyOgg #AnkhMorpork #TheColourOfMagic #TheLightFantastic #WyrdSisters #Mort #GuardsGuards #Pyramids #Quote #QuoteOfTheDay #Geek #Geeky #GayGeek #Gaymer #Nerd #Bronze #BronzeStatue #Djelibeybi #Book #Bookstagram

I finished reading 'Star Wars: Lost Stars' this morning before work. It's a pretty awesome book that mostly takes place between 'A New Hope' and 'The Force Awakens', and gives an intriguing insight into the thoughts and emotions of those that work for the Empire, especially after events such as the Destruction of Alderaan. Now I'm jumping into Hyperspace to travel from a Galaxy far, far away to return to the Discworld in 'Pyramids'. . . . #StarWars #LostStars #ClaudiaGray #StarWarsExpandedUniverse #Alderaan #BattleOfYavin #DeathStar #DarthVader #HanSolo #MillenniumFalcon #Discworld #Pyramids #TerryPratchett #GreatAtuin #Djelibeybi #GrannyWeatherwax #Rincewind #Geek #Geeky #GayGeek #Gaymer #Nerd #Book #Books #Comics #WhatImReading #CurrentlyReading #Bookstagram
