A large lilac bush with green leaves and covered in purple flowers.
"I've seen old men cry when they sing it," he added.
"Why? It sounds cheerful."
They were remembering who they were not singing it with, thought Vimes. You'll learn. I know you will." #gnuterrypratchett #glorious25th

A picture of a lilac in the background with the following text in white on top of it "He wanted to go home. He wanted it so much that he trembled at the thought. But if the price of that was selling good men to the night, if the price was filling those graves, if the price was not fighting with every trick he knew... then it was too high. It wasn't a decision that he was making, he knew. It was happening far below the areas of the brain that made decisions. It was something built in. There was no universe, anywhere, where a Sam Vimes would give in on this, because if he did then he wouldn't be Sam Vimes any more."
“All the little angels rise up, rise up.
All the little angels rise up high!
How do they rise up, rise up, rise up?
How do they rise up, rise up high?
They rise heads up, heads up, heads up, they rise heads up, heads up high!”

A branch of lilac with broad green leaves and a few sprays of branching off-white flowers, some open and some still buds. Out of focus in the background is a city street with cars parked in front of some brick two-flats. The sky behind them is hazy blue.
How Do They Rise Up?

Selfie of me. I’m wearing a Cubs world champion blue shirt and two enamel pins. The top one is a purple ribbon with a lilac in front of it. The top of the ribbon says Terry Pratchett. The second pin is two lilacs crossed and pointing in different directions. There’s a banner underneath it that says The Glorious 25th
Ready to do some gardening!

The back of a light purple shirt with black text in a handwriting font that reads “Truth Freedom Justice Love and a hard boiled Egg!”

A picture of a lilac tree in bloom with the words “Truth, justice, freedom, reasonably priced love and a hard boiled egg”. In honour of the glorious revolution of the 25th May in the Discworld novels - this day has become a memorial for Terry Pratchett
I almost missed the #Glorious25th. A day to remember #GNUTerryPratchett

A fake lilac sprig is tied to a leaf.
“Vimes was ready. He grabbed the boy, swung him round, and twisted the thing out of his hand before murder was done.
No! That’s not the way! This is not the time! Hold it back! Tame it! Don’t waste it! Send it back! It’ll come when you call!”

UK school homework project - bring a book to life. Youngest child chose A Hat Full of Sky by Terry Pratchett. Photo shows a cardboard box painted to look like the black sands while Tiffany Aching faces the Hiver and robed figure of the DiscworldDEATH looks on.

We are showing some multi generational Pratchett appreciation to mark the 25th May (sadly my lilac bloomed early this year & I didn't get photos!)
However, my youngest was working on a school project last week called bring a book to life. They chose A Hat Full of Sky 😃

Samuel Vimes from Night Guard standing near the grave of John Keel. He is smoking. Lilac is in bloom. Fresh lilac flowers are laying on the grave. "How do They Rise Up" is carved on the grave.
Damn! Damn! Damn! Every year he forgot. Well, no. He never forgot. He just put the memories away, like old silverware that you didn't want to tarnish. And every year they came back, sharp and sparkling, and stabbed him in the heart.

The Glorious 25th 🪻
...Vimes strolled over the moss-grown gravel. In the twilight, the lilac blooms seemed to shine. Their scent hung in the air like fog.
How do they rise up?
