My Bloody Efforts
Huttonian missed it but is reliably informed that a fellow Huttonian-one with longer credentials you might say, has been 'recognised' by HM the Q in the Birthday Honours with a MBE for 'services to the community' Well done and heartiest congratulations. Under the new Honours system it is much more likely that the worker at the coal face-not that he exists anymore so the person on the 32 Bus (another endangered species)is rewarded and in my view the My Bloody Efforts as opposed to Other B******S Efforts is the cream of the awards.
The blog rather got up the nose of the honorand in days gone by, that is water down the Whiteadder, but we are delighted that someone who has genuinely worked hard and actually achieved practical results for the common good is to make the trip to Buck House, press the flesh, and get the gong.
I'll spare the blushes of the person concerned. But if you can't guess who it is -the Berwickshire should reveal all on Thursday next and might even drive the latest silly canine off the front page

Comments:
The Herald has it but not as Scottish News as the award is for Voluntary Services to Hutton, BERWICK UPON TWEED so it appears to be an English award-TD15 being mostly about England.
