Honours list

I wouldn't want a French or Russian honour, I cannot stand the thought of being kissed by Chirac or Putin.

What about Her Madge?

She doesn't kiss.

I have to confess to a vested interest here.

It was an immense shock to be included in the New Years Honours list about 20 years ago. Although I feel all the things outlined in this thread, I wasn't going to refuse to take my family to Buckingham Palace on investiture day. I mingled happily with sporting and entertainment celebrities, queued to shake hands with Her Maj. had photos taken, went for a celebratory lunch, wore a top hat for the first (and probably last) time and reeled off home very merrily. I can recommend it for a superb day out if anyone gets the chance.

Thos.
