In the spirit of the time of Hogfather when people expect to find black soted paws.. err.. footsteps over the hallway and big, big jolly stockings filled with charcoal... err.. tinsoldiers.. We in City Ankh Morpork invite all you merry Discworld fans to attend the best Hogfather season .. this year

From December 1:st there will be hogs all over CAM and additional festivites. Guaranteed.
We will serve Porkpie
Rats onna stick
Sasuage-inna-a-bun
And ketchup is mandatory to for all to bring with themselves

And we promise there will be ice on the River Ankh so it will not smell so much.. atleast less than usual.

Dragons will be stashed away and so you will not have to worry about the warm breath in the neck.

Happy Hogswatch from me...

(My country's polotics are based around 'What would Lord Vetineri do?')

Any with machievelian tastes have a look around Mekklon...We'd get on well with Ankh Morpork...there are a few oddly hippy like states though *shrug* they will be brought to heel..

possibly start a small war with borogravia, just to celebrate ...
second thoughts, we could very easily just get drunk on the army rum ration and send suggestive clacks messages to Lancre...
cheers! here's to the hogfather!
and his erstwhile standin the Grim Reaper!
may we commend our nation to any gods that...notice it, really...

We shall think about it..
Mayby not the small war with borogravia.. no use to do it unless they boys don't know if they will be home before hogswatch :)

who is the hogfather? he kinda looks like santa claus? :eek:

Who is Santa Claus?

Nevermind. Hogfather is a jolly man in red dress who usually rides around the Discworld around Hogswatch giving presents to those nice and charcoal or nothing to those bad. He always enters through your chimney. We recommend that you install one imediatly if you don't have one.
Its inspiring to see how good kids act during these times.

To behave against the hogfather its recommended you leave a pigpie and a glas of sherry nearby your chimney.

Wich brings me to a question.. How would the you (you as in all readers of this post) want to celebrate Hogswatch?

If you have good sock hanging on the mantelpiece you will atleast get something.

Today is the final day of the election and it seems a member of the seamstress guild *cough cough* will be the winner.

Yes, the Hogfather was good to us early this year. As the new UN Delegate of the wonderful Region of the City Ankh Morporkh , let me second our beloved Founder's invitation to enjoy the celebrations with us.

Who knows? You may want to stick around for awhile to see if we are as fun a Region as we appear to be. :)
