UK Honours List - a bit OT
Found this article in the UK Telegraph newspaper and thought some of the rabble might enjoy it...a complete (and lengthy) list of HRH's Honours recipients for the new year.

A few Scots on it, and some interesting professions or services mentioned; kind of amazing what can get you some letters after your name in the UK.
Folk and traditional music fans will be chuffed to see both Dougie McLean and Richard Thompson on this year's list, though.
Anybody here ever made the list? and if so, for what?
One note: you can disregard the "Part 2" link at the very bottom. It's not more list, just some commentary with a little snark.
