How did we get on to discussing the apocalypse?!
My copy has no appendices because it is a 30-years-old one-volume thing which would probably fall apart if you added one more page (actually it's falling apart already, but that's from over-use!) Thank you everyone for all the info, I think I will try and read them now. I can't believe I missed out finding out what happens to the characters afterwards! And the pronunciation would be useful as well. Thank you again!

In the blurb on the back of a copy of Unfinished Tales, I think.

The Traffic Wardens of the Apocalypse!
Sorry, that was a bit out-dated wasn't it.
