I was a bit surprised to hear a clip on the Today program this morning from a Martin Amis interview due to be aired later ( in which he was moaning about the problems of having a father who was a famous writer) following my recent contribution on the Clerihew thread over on MC.

Martin Amis
desperately wanted to be famous
in his own right and got mad
when anybody mentioned his dad

I'm trying to think of a Clerihew involving lottery numbers :)

I do Mobs but I only every win small amounts. I wondered whether the Clerihew had some special, predictive magic <magic>

I heard the interview tonight. Really liked his early novels but always thought he was an arrogant, obnoxious git
