So pleased to know the identity of that creep I elbowed out of the way.

Are you calling me a creep?

You’d be right if you were. I do sometimes rub people the wrong way.

I hope you learnt your lesson!

You are collecting quite a few imaginary friends, between ChatGPT and Señor Marks... Should we worry?! Looking forward to reading more either way! And congratulations on the piece in the magazine, I love the theme (in my head I'm pronouncing it in a northern Irish accent).

Imaginary? This Mr Marks character is all too real, unfortunately.

As a kid I had a northern Irish brogue, wish I’d been able to keep it. It’s easily my favourite accent in the world. Maybe I’ll do an audio version of that right here, if the copyright allows it. It’s not like they paid me anything for it!

Alas, so rarely do they pay! Although Irish ones usually do thanks to funding and investments in the arts (also why they are hot right now).

Agree about it being a gorgeous accent. My family are from there too, I was one of those people that got their citizenship after Brexit 🤭

I love this guy! I feel like we could be friends. Anyone who uses 'numpty' and 'muppet' in tandem is alright by me.
