Re: ossie or ossy?
 
I've always done it with a "y".

Gayle 27-10-2006 19:09

Re: ossie or ossy?
 
Definitely with a 'y'.

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

Di-dums.

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. :)

Re: ossie or ossy?
 
It's a no brainer. Check the name, am I ossy kid or ossie kid????

garinda 06-04-2011 07:31

Re: ossie or ossy?
 
Even though there are some books, which wrongly spell it Ossie, it should end with a Y.

No one ever writes Accie.

That's just wrong.

Therefore it's definitely Ossy.

;)

Always has been and will always be OSSY

Re: ossie or ossy?
 
Given the local pronunciation, I would have thought ‘Ozzy’ would have been more apt.

But on second thoughts, maybe not; no doubt Britcliffe would start calling himself the local ‘Wizard of Ozzy’.

ossy!!

More years ago than I care to remember, the 'Ossie, (Ossy), Cloggers were dancing in Blackpool, I took time off from watching my daughter and the other children and had a T-shirt with, 'I'm an Ossy Clogger Groupy' made.
One of the Mothers there decided when she saw the shirt that I was a pervert, not just a pervert but a dyslexic pervert because I'd spelt Ossie, (Ossy), wrong.

We can't fight against people that have no tolerence, spell it how you wish so long as you treat it with the respect it deserves.

It only turns long-winded when others struggle with the fact that they are wrong.
