Did any of the longer serving members notice a "James P Denny" on the list. Otts is reading the board!

OK, who is Otts? And why is Cocker reacting like that?  |

I've noticed Otts lurking for a few days now...
Come back Otts...
Bob, Otts was a very regular TAWer here until a couple of years ago...

I think Otts got himself banned.....
I sit corrected, Simon - thanks! I was reliably informed that the primary signature on the nomination carried a lot more weight if he / she was a senior figure in the nominees field.....

When was he knighted then? No - just thought he might sign the petition, along with Patrick Spens |

Didn't he get knighted for bonking the Queen being a very fine sailor? Paul |

Shirley Collins received an MBE/OBE in the New Year's Honours List.
I feel both Ashley and Swarb deserve some recognition. Whether they regard a "gong" as suitable is up to them...

If you had enough money, you could buy Ashley a Lordship. After all, Canuck media baron Conrad Black bought himself one. Renounced his Canadian citizenship and all, to become Lord Black of Cross temper er, ...harbour. http://www.cbc.ca/news/background/black_conrad/'Course, now that he's been indicted in the U.S. for embezzlement, he's whining for his Canadian citizenship back. And I expect ol' Liz'll have to rescind the honour if he's convicted. Cheers, Hester P.S. Was Otts the guy who said cheese too much? |

With a little bit of time and effort, on his part, I could have Ashley knighted as a Templar at the local masonic hall in Bulls Gap, Tennessee, within about 4-6 weeks, providing he pays his fees on time!
Let me know if this is a direction we should pursue.
Affectionately,
Sir Wiley of the Gap
