... I don't think I've given my congrats yet... what an oversight.

Anyway ditto on what ^^^ they all say.

I love the picture! It is perfect. Arise Sir Pterry

 

[Binky]

Long overdue and well deserved, Sir! Congratulations!

 

[Ogg]

Long overdue and well deserved, Sir! Congratulations!

As above of course.
What saddens me is the depth of emotion I felt during the entire 'Pratchett/Alhzeimers' media proclamation. Of course my neanderthal friends could never fathom such concern for a mere 'author' but the sheer injustice of it all...still moves me as much as it did when I first heard.
Add to this the increasing exposure due to his deserved Knighthood..."you read his books dontcha?" Unless youre familiar with his work how dare you even comment!

I seem to have failed to congratulate our Pterry so far so I'd better do it
now.Hearty congrats to the best author writting today.
I see we have a veritable pletherer of newbies joining to congratulate
Pterry.Please don't just use this thread for that,but come and join us and
have yourselves a fun time on the best site in town.
I know that being offered a Knighthood is a great honour as I myself have been nominated but I turned it down as I know I would never wear
one.

Terry's Knighthood

Apparently, I am the 48th person to congratulate Terry on his Knighthood in this thread - quite an honour as I expect there are several million who feel the same.

Terry's humour is wonderful, I need to read each line at least twice to check thatI haven't missed some slight (OK I'm not very bright).

To Terry - Please, Please keep writing !

 

[Tonyblack]

Welcome to the site Mark-C - I know how you feel.

Better late than never as my Mum would say.

I can only say that I whole heartedly agree with every post on this thread and say Congratulations Sir, so well deserved for all the joy you've given to me and millions around the world

 

[Wee Annie]

Congratulations. All of the above sentiments are shared. So proud for you. You deserve it.
Well done.

 

[Juan José]

WOW!!!

Congratulations Sr Terry Pratchett, Well done.
My genuine admiration to you.

 

[Conspiracy Theory]

Congratulations Sir!

As an American, I'm not entirely sure what Knighthood entails, but I do understand it's a HUGE and well deserved honor.

A knighthood means that in times of national crisis you have the right to bear arms and form your own private army.
