The sorting engine

Today my husband got a Christmas card from the union, togather with a letter dated 10th December, 2008.

As a Terry Pratchett fan I instantly concluded that Santa Cruz has bought Bloody Stupid Johnson’s postal sorting enginer from Ankh Morpork.

If you haven’t a clue what I’m talking about, you need to go and read “Going Postal”.

Like all of Pratchetts books, it’s hilarious.
