The food, drink and tourism industry were particularly well represented in the honours list this year, with Jancis and Jamie Oliver being two of the most high profile recipients. Well deserved I think.

I am particularly looking forward to this event with Jancis, it should be a cracker. She only has time to answer a maximum of 30 of your most interesting questions, so get in quick once the board is open for business.

So do we have call her Dame Jancis from now on or Lady Robinson?Us Yankees don't know about this stuff.

It's definitely not Dame. That's the equivalent of a knight. The Beatles got the OBE, and everybody called them John Paul George & Ringo.

I'm hollywood and I approve this message.

I need to call Jancis "John, Paul George and Ringo"?

You're quick. Are you British? Maybe we can get you some initials. :smile:
