buttheadsmate Posted June 15, 2009 Author Share Posted June 15, 2009 Lisa is undoubtedly one of the nicest & brightest people I know but....... ......she was honoured for "her services to Global Tax Issues ,HM Revenue & Customs" Apparently she got hold of my file Forgive the post perhaps but a friend of mine (who works for the BBC) sent me the link earlier this evening & to see them all on TV at the Palace just made my day !

All joking aside nice to see ordinary ppl getting recognised for anything they do well instead of some idiot politician or merchant banker who screwed ppl to the floor.

karamazov80 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Very cool stuff, BHM. My dad was a local TV producer, so my sister and I would occasionally appear on TV either in the background or in productions where a little kid was needed. I actually starred in a little pseudo-educational short that they still play from time to time. I was in 2nd or 3rd grade. I wish someone would Youtube it.

Bob Harris Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Huge hats. Isn't it amazing how huge those hats are? I bet my mom would love to go there just to have a good reason to wear those extraordinary hats. However, congrats BHM. That is amazing!
