While you're here, have a quote as a little treat. Context: The Fools' Guild is on fire.

I am continuing my #Discworld re-read and I had been looking forward to the experience of reading them in order, right from the beginning. But: currently I'm on holiday and have thus resorted to reading a book my wife packed, #TheFifthElephant.
Which makes quite a contrast. I had just gotten as far as #WyrdSisters (#6) and was thinking "this isn't half bad"; three paragraphs into Elephant and there's a huge step up in quality in every direction.

Another fabulous Pratchett stage adaptation by the Strawmoddie crew! Splendid evening, look forward to them returning to the Camera in June.

@benhamill "I have never, I'm pretty sure, read any official write-up of what a kobold is."
I guess that depends on whether you consider #Kobolds and #Goblins two distinct species, or just their name in different languages (at least according to annotations for #TerryPratchett's #Discworld novel #TheFifthElephant: «Kobold is a German word usually translated as "goblin." It also gives the English language the metal name Cobalt. […] another mine-dwelling supernatural entity is called a nickel.»)
