More Site Updates

Sometimes you have a bit of time available and you can tackle several website updates. October provided that opportunity.

First of all I got around to writing an article on the Stamps and Postal History of Zlobenia and Borogravia, inspired by Terry Pratchett's Discworld novel Monstous Regiment. These two states are constantly squabbling about their boundaries and have provided much of the military items in the Discworld Stamps catalogue. Zlobenia on The Discworld Stamp Collector




2016 has seen continued issuing of new Discworld Stamps and many of these could be added to my Discworld Books & Stamps website. There I have a synopsis of each Discworld novel ilustrated by the appropriate Discworld Stamps. Discworld Stamps and Books



Then there was news of that enigmatic Welsh author Huw Puw Caru from the Caru Foundation. The Foundation has been advised to take a rest from decoding the author's works for the sake of ther sanity. But an event near Swansea raises the possibility that Caru may still be alive - resurrected even. He hasn't been seen since 1967 yet no body has been found. Howver one of his stories echoes events that happened 7 years later. But for him to appear in 2016 would make him 143 years old. Perhaps his Tibetan monk friend taught him skills we can only guess at. Read all about Huw Puw Caru
Is this Caru on CCTV?

Finally, the Land of Mμ, a stress free zone has its own website. Famed for its Hμpμs and Hγppos the Land of Mμ has been posting on Facebook for quite a while on all the happening and events that may amuse the outside world. Facebook is rubbish as an archive - great at 'now' articles though - so the posts there are extended and archived on the Land of Mu website
