Yeah, Cheery's good, and its so nice when she helped out Dee in 'Fifth Elephant'.
Well, ok then, the only dwarf one I can think of is when Cuddy is singing 'Gold gold gold gold' in FOC.
Red Queen, do you know the answer to my previous question? though I agree its easy.

Well, Mr. Downey was during Hogfather...and I haven't heard anything untoward happening to him recently...

Regarding the Gold song...it was one of those things you can only get if you're a dwarf. Both Carrot and Cheery have both corrected people (IIRC) for getting the songs mixed up. The only word in them is Gold, but it depends where you put the accent, the meter, and, of course, the tune...

Who was Queen Molly and what did she ask for?

Ahhh, Queen of Beggers, yeah...... She asks for money like all the beggers, but there's going to be more to it.
You are an experienced Discworld reader, Red Queen, I rather think. Good one.

I've just got to find more Rankin to read. I've run Discworld dry. My family always tell me authors can't write fast enough to catch up with me. Which in one sense at least is a compliment.
