I was given one of the 'proper' almanacs once and I would sooner the Discworld one - it makes more sense !
There was no diary published for 2005/2006 and most people see this book as being published instead of the annual diary, which was a bit of a shame as many people (myself included) were expecting a diary as usual. But please don't judge it against the diaries, judge it as a new add-on book instead.
It is vaguely amusing in places but nowhere near as funny as these offerings usually are (The diaries that have been produced for the last few years were much better).
There is also in my opinion just slightly too much about cabbages, but then maybe that's just me!
