Fat Charlie Nancy is not actually fat. He was fat once but he is definitely not fat now. No right now Fat Charlie Nancy is angry confused and more than a little scared – right now his life is spinning out of control and it is all his dad’s fault. If his rotter of an estranged father hadn’t dropped dead at a karaoke night Charlie would still be blissfully unaware that his dad was Anansi the spider god. He would have no idea that he has a brother called Spider who is also a god. And there would be no chance that said brother would be trying to take over his life flat and fiancee or to make matters worse be doing a much better job of it than him. Desperate to reclaim his life Charlie enlists the help of four more-than-slightly eccentric old ladies and their unique brand of voodoo – and between them they unleash a bitter and twisted force to get rid of Spider. But as darkness descends and badness begins is Fat Charlie Nancy going to get his life back in one piece or is he about to enter a whole netherworld of pain?

Falconry Experience – Full Day This is a fascinating introduction to an ancient and intriguing pursuit and an unforgettable opportunity to handle some magnificent birds of prey. It is extraordinary watching the relationship between man and bird of prey – when we visited one supplier, his bird actually bowed to him! – the product of many years’ training. During the course of the day, you will have the opportunity to hold the bird on your arm and in the afternoon you will go out hunting or flying the birds with the falconer – this is truly fascinating, watching the bird of prey hunting across the countryside. You will be given an overview of the disciplines and history of falconry by one of the country’s best falconers, followed by a brief introduction to the husbandry and welfare of birds and the equipment used in falconry. Our expert falconers will demonstrate the skills required to handle the birds themselves and discuss the importance of breeding and conservation to help species in the wild survive. In the afternoon you will head off into the countryside for a unique afternoon’s sport. Programmes vary depending on the location. This experience is a great idea if you are looking for Christmas gifts that are a little bit different. About The Falconry Experience – Full Day When can you go? Selected Monday – Sunday dates, typically all year although some centres only run September to March. How long does the activity last? Your activity will last for approximately 5 to 6 hours. You need to know You must be at least 16 years old and under 18s should be accompanied by an adult. General fitness is required for this activity as there can be a lot of walking involved. Some locations hunt the birds during the afternoon, therefore it is not suitable for squeamish people. No previous falconry experience is necessary. You and how many others? There will be a maximum of 11 others in your group. Family and friends Sorry, you can’t bring along family and friends to watch you do this activity.

Twoflower was a tourist the first ever seen on the Discworld. Tourist Rlncewind decided meant idiot. Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld a parallel time and place which might sound and smell very much like our own but which looks completely different. It plays by different rules. Certainly it refuses to succumb to the quaint notion that universes are ruled by pure logic and the harmony of numbers. But just because the Disc is different doesn’t mean that some things don’t stay the same. Its very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the arrival of the first tourist upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land. But if the person charged with maintaining that survival in the face of robbers mercenaries and well Death is a spectacularly inept wizard a little logic might turn out to be a very good idea…
