Charlie Higson, in The Observer: 'I still find it hard talking to working-class people. I'm like Ralph in [The Fast Show's] Ted and Ralph. I am pathetically keen and helpful when a plumber comes round.' 

WTF, Higson! How about treating working-class people the exact same way you would anyone else? I guarantee they won't come to you, cap in hand, talking about potatoes and carrots. *Gasp* Some of them can actually read these days!  How ignorant and patronising can you be? 

I have really lost respect for him, now.

In not-so annoying news, it's a gorgeous, if stuffy day today. I'm going to go for a swim. Only a month left before the Med becomes a little Baltic. :D

Aw, man! I'd love to see what you wrote there. You could totally use my log-in if you wanted? Lulz!
