Very Pleased To Say…

[Redhelen72]

That my husband was nominated and accepted a MBE from HM.
So very proud of him.
Guess I need to buy a hat!

[Mamyalynne]

Wow! Congratulations.

Yes you do need a hat, how lovely x

[Sqad]

Well played him.
Do you become Lady Helen?
What dis he do?

[Redhelen72]

Thanks Mamya, a shopping I must go!
I have been lady Helen for several years already Sqad!
He got it for service to Defence.

[Lie-in King]

Well done mr. R.

[Redhelen72]

Thanks LIK and Annea

What a lovely occasion for you to celebrate, Redhelen. Many congratulations to him, you must be so proud.

I trust that has helped you to both feel better. A small libation is called for. Plenty of time to see a milliner too ;)

A lovely start to the New Year and a worthy thread x

[Redhelen72]

Awwh thanks.
I hate hats so will need professional help in that area

[Mozz71]

I got a cloth cap you can borrow Helen ;-)

Congrats to your Mr H.

[Bazile]

I have got a selection of fascinators , if you want to borrow one ?

[choux]

Mozz, I think Redhelen could actually get away with a (new) riding hat as they all ride in that family ;)

[wolf63]

Wear a Cowboy hat - people will notice you and ask who you are. He can dress up as a Storm Trooper.

Congratulations to Mr RH.

[Redhelen72]

Apparently the Queen dislikes fascinators immensely!

[Redhelen72]

Oh Wolf I think that’s against protocol but it would be very funny

[choux]

Not that keen on riding hats either ;)

[Prudie]

Wow and congratulations. You must be very proud. That will be a day to remember.

[pastafreak]

Huge congratulations to Mr RH. You must be so proud of him. Nice way to start the year.

[Redhelen72]

Once again thanks.
His name is on dispatches for those that know his name.

[wolf63]

Is this a code of some sort? "His name is on dispatches"
