Subject: RE: BS: New Years Honours List
Bainbo, I wrote a song way back in the sixties called The Royal Horses. One verse went:

Gordon Richards, rode a couple of winners
So the Queen asked him up to the palace for his dinner.
She fed him on champagne, caviar and beer,
And he was made the shortest night of the year.
