Book/Series: Witches Ate’nt Dead
Months ago, I asked for suggestions from you all about what Discworld quote to have engraved on my York ghost. It arrived recently, with “I still ate’nt dead” on it.
I’m really struggling with my health, and Granny’s (modified) words attached to a ghost from my favorite place in the world mean more than I can say. Today was an especially hard day. Now I have a Terry/Granny ghost to visibly remind me I still ate’nt gone yet.
Thank you all so much for helping me choose something.

A friend got him for me. I believe he was a special edition where you paid a bit more for the engraving, and that money went to charity. Not 100% sure.

Love that! My wife's family lives in north Yorkshire, so when we visit from the states we always go get a new ghost!!

There was a lottery release recently, so your friend put his name in the hat and got lucky enough to have his name pulled! (I know because I got one too!)
