Re: ossie or ossy?

Re: ossie or ossy?
The Obsever sometimes does it as Ossie, and people write in to complain.

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

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.
