Terry Pratchett
That's a good anecdote Paul, a friend of mine of mine from school days had a similar one on Iain Banks when he first came to "fame; or infamy in those days with the publication of "The Wasp Factory etc" and the first culture novels. Apparently he was kicked out of a Nottingham hotel Sci Fi convention for being in an advanced state of refreshment and then trying to climb up the side of the hotel to his room, of which key he'd mislaid!"
A sad day indeed.
