There may well be people who don't know

And I didn't twig for a while

But I have no such excuse because I asked Otto directly if the Grauniad blogs were about her (huzzah!) own life, or whether she was ghost-writing for someone else. So I knew.

I just find it v difficult using the right pronouns when posting about someone using a male nom de plume whom I have virtually known as a bloke called gareth for many years and whom I haven't actually met!

Anyway, I really should pay attention and will endeavour to do so
