Stunning news has reached us here at OnEurope towers overnight.
"That Monty", occasional contributor, party editor and all around good egg has been recognised by another Queen - Elizabeth II in this case, and has been made a Member of the Order of the British Empire!!
The Citation, in the London Gazette, reads:
but we all *know* what it's actually for ... Services to schlager and fabulousness and OnEurope over the years!
Does this mean that Her Maj is reading the things we write (ma'am)? Have we got a secret admirer? Or is Prince Harry on the turn? We suspect not, but bugger it, we're over the moon for our Monty!!
Congrats to Monty!
