Here's hoping all of you Pratchett fans in London are having a lovely (and warm) Bank Holiday!

And for those of you who would like to enjoy the monthly gathering of The Broken Drummers at the Monkey Puzzle in Paddington, please note that due to said Bank Holiday the regular meeting time has been brought forward this month to 3pm.

The Monkey Puzzle was an old favourite of mine in my London days, and with all the myriad changes in London over the years, it's wonderful to see that the pub is still going and still popular.

Have fun!
