Well I think there's only me and the missus not on it.
Once again they struggle to find enough "worthy candidates" to be given a gong.
O.B.E's...C.B.E's... B&Q's....D.F.S's the list goes on, of course there's a tiny minority that truly deserve a gong but the rest are just also ran's that get a reward for kicking a football. carrying a rugby ball, walking a lot and those that generally do their jobs {usually well paid one's}.
I worked my butt off for 50 years and what have I to show, on the day I retired not so much as a well done or even thank you. Yes I get a pension but that is now being taxed at 20% so thanks for that!!
If ever I was offered a N/Y honour I would say " Stuff your gong just give me a million quid" and be on the first plane out of here.
