You upset me earlier.

Besides people from Oswaldtwistle probably wouldn't get past the first auditions, as they tend to be more classically minded in here in Gobbinland, as witnessed by opera star John Tomlinson, and Sir Harrison Birtwistle, who had to leave his birthplace because there were too many 'wistles' for him to be taken seriously.


Please bear in mind I'm from Oswaldtwistle myself. I knew the Birtwistles, the Entwistles and the Haythornthwaites of Stanhill. They were classically minded, if you like, never had anything less than Count John McCormack on their gramophone.
