The Obsever sometimes does it as Ossie, and people write in to complain.

Thats unlike the Observer to get something wrong. I think it's with a Y as well. As in the OSSYWOOD sign :D

Were you hoping that they would have used the photograph were you were actually smiling, instead of the one of you pouting sulkily with PB, in this week's edition?:D

Re: ossie or ossy?

I take it this is in reference to Oswaldtwistle ? If so I'd assume it'd end in "ie" as opposed to "y" simply due to the spelling. :)
