I have been overlooked. Yet again.
Congratulations to RT. Have we ever had an OBE in the kitchen before?

I agree with everybody. a) Congratulations. b) He should have told them to stuff it. And, c) I do (genuinely) have one in the kitchen(/diner) (my late Uncle's). |

Why not a knighthood? Hey, he did come straight in at OBE, rather than bottom-rung MBE! Richly deserved, I say. |

Presumably the evidence of (c) has no bearing on the advice of (b)?  Mind you, next thing he'll be sending it back in order to complain about the low chart position of Front Parlour Ballads. |

I was going to post a "congratulations" but now I'm not so sure.  Jeez, the article gives him short enough shrift doesn't it.  Edit: Of course congratulations are in order, if only for the opportunity to tell them to "shove it". Still, isn't it great to see this talent recognized? |
