Right, listen up, ye fine broom-ridin' bonnie bunch! 'Tis yer wee pal Rob Anybody 'ere, scribblin' this missive wi' the grace o' a hedgehog on roller skates an' the spelling skills o' a ship wi' a quill (an' believe me, we tried that once - dinnae ask). Now then, we've got tales tae tell, spells tae sling, an' a sale on cauldrons big enough tae fit a ship, if ye're daft enough tae try cookin' one whole - not that we'd recommend it, mind, unless the ship deserved

Greetings from the desk of Miss Perspicacia Tick.

Whether you're sipping scumble1 in Lancre, dodging assassins in Ankh-Morpork, or just trying not to fall off the edge of the world, welcome to another issue of Broomsticks and Cauldrons2

This modest missive of magic, mischief, and mildly alarming metaphysics is for witches of all stages (from full coven to solitary kettle-simmerers) and anyone else willing to cross into the realm of practical wisdom, magical oddments, updates from the wild broom-paths, and happy for a dash of advice you didn't ask for, but very likely need.

So, …

With a bit of timey wimey assistance from the history monks, we present: Hogswatch... in July.

An evening of merriment with fellow Discworld fans as a taster of what's to come at Nullus Anxietas X in …
