I just read back all the Osman posts in reverse order and wondered why GregP was spamming the thread with all those answers to unasked questions. I was about to quote a couple of them to express my shared love of some books ("Towards The End Of The Morning" and "A Month In The Country") when I twigged he was sharing the interview for my benefit. I'm an ungrateful, dozy, wretch.] Not read any of his books, and I'm not going to.

Dooogs Dec 2022 10:56am, 13 Dec 2022 9,163 posts	0 Dooogs Using bake as a noun rather than a verb. You bake a cake, a bun, a flapjack, etc; you don't bake a f'ing bake!
