Everyone is broadly in favour, Chrysoprase and Detritus explain about the original Troll concept of Scouting as a kind of citizenship training for young Trolls (apparently both were Scouts as pebbles), and at least three members of the Committee are of the opinion membership should be equally extended to girls. This consists of Rufus Drumknott's minutes of a meeting between Lord Vetinari and selected City dignitaries and Guild representatives, all of whom have an interest in establishing Scouting as a pursuit for young boys of all races and species. It was never published, though the concept - a book about the formation of a Scouting movement in Ankh-Morpork - is mentioned in the afterword to The Shepherd's Crown.Ī Blink of the Screen contains a short piece, referred to by Terry as a "squib", titled The Minutes of the Meeting To Form The Proposed Ankh-Morpork Federation of Scouts. Ner your gleaming swords, we mortgaged to the hilt.An unwritten book whose title was first released prior to the publication of Thud! as a forthcoming Discworld novel. Ner ner ner ner ner ner, ner ner ner ner ner, We own all your generals - touch us and you'll lose. We own all your helmets, we own all your shoes.
I've heard various renditions of the anthem before, including Terry himself singing it to a bunch of us while we were waiting to do the maskerade at the Clarecraft event - but this is the first time I've heard it done seriously (sort of). While Googling the A-M flag I found a recording of the Ankh-Morpork Anthem performed by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and the soprano Clare Rutter.* The music was written by Carl Davis.
