I was just about to write the same thing, particularly as T8191 has the honour of being bestowed a Mucci by our Queen Pucci Galore.

If we're being accurate, and mindful that one should never wear bling but only proper honours, I have TWO MUCCIs. Sadly, both awards were lost in the post.

I would not wear my shooting medals … I wouldn't be able to stand up

Hang on - hope that doesn't mean that my servants have to fly "downgraded" - that may lead to a mass exodus and good staff are hard to come by. Can I still let them fly WT+ providing their attire is up to snuff? ^^

Any by extension would the airline be known as English, Welsh and Northern Irish Airways or even the Airways formerly known as British?
I thought Scotland already had it's own airline...Scotland's Airline

Good stuff, I certainly like a lot of chocolate on my biscuit (and it is much nicer than the breakfast muffin/lead ingot)
