how often does the letter i occur in:
.
sir philip liggert has a nice ring to it..
does mbe stand for motor-assisted bike up mt etna?
today and mbe; next year, after the olympics, a k??
so who reckons hell have his bike decals changed to show mark cavendish mbe?
dear oh dear, this arrogant idiot hasnt done anything yet, really ffs?
no? could have fooled me.
no sign of him on the list on direct.gov (unless my eyes are decieving me).
really? double world champion? stage wins in all three grand tours, and six in one year at the tdf? commonwealth gold medallist? msr winner?
whether you like cav or not, which you clearly dont, saying he hasnt done anything is absurd.
not just stage wins, 15 of them in the tdf - thats not only a hell of a lot more than any other brit, its more than legends like zabel, mcewen or cippolini got in their entire careers.
as dave said, you may not like him, but that shouldnt detract from admitting his achievements.
i noticed that too. im assuming its because the isle of man isnt part of the uk, and only uk recipients are listed on direct.gov. for example, theres no mention of australians named in the birthday honours either.
wonder if he can be bothered to turn up and collect it, or if the queen will have to work round his busy schedule?
hes a sprinter... of course hes arrogant!
undeniably the best road sprinter in the world at the moment and he knows it. arrogance would apply if he thought he could just rock up and win. but as the documentary on telly the other day showed, cav is a stickler for practice and doesnt leave anything to chance.
great to see a brit with his kind of self-belief for a change. self-deprecation and modesty is all very well, but doesnt make for exciting viewing!
shes going to get a place on htc team for the tdf and has to lead him out with medal in hand
simon - hes not on the overseas list either. i suspect someones been making mischief.
confusingly, the overseas list isnt actually where they list most of the people overseas who get honours. hes on the commonwealth list.
cant find a link to the original. but luckily the top google hit takes you to the list as republished by that bastion of the monarchy, the guardian....
