Talk:Pelicool Steps
Hot damn. For my fan fiction, I invented, or so I thought, a florists' shop in Pelicool Steps just a door or two down from Grace Speaker's pet shop. This was a significant location in the story. Come The Compleat Ankh-Morpork, what sort of co-inspiration particles passed between my brain and Terry's? OK, so it isn't run by a Davinia Bellamy with a sideline in inventive inhumations, but still...AgProv (talk) 07:52, 18 November 2012 (PST)
- Yeah, the new phenomenon of dark glasses for Reformed Vampires that I invented last year shows up at Argus Opticians. There's a lot of room for coincidences in the big city. I'm still fascinated by this name. "Steps" should indicate a riverside location, a landing, but there it is high and dry over by the Lady Sybil. Pelicool, of course, should be "pellicule", but what skin?--Old Dickens (talk) 08:38, 18 November 2012 (PST)
Is there a wig connection to the word "pellicule"? Wigmakers? AgProv (talk) 06:12, 25 November 2012 (PST)
- It's used for "dandruff" but that's as close as I can find to wigs. --Old Dickens (talk) 07:05, 25 November 2012 (PST)
