Arise Sir Keith...

I knew when I woke this morning.
I felt a certain certainty about the events that would unfold on this day, the day we in New Zealand officially celebrate Queen Elizabeth's Birthday and I just knew that Liz would make me a knight, no matter how errant, in this years list of Birthday Honours.
She had plenty of reasons to do so as you well know.
She's only too well aware of my philanthropic gestures and then there's my efforts in Conservation. And for god's sake she reads this blog every day so at least I thought I'd get the gong for literature.
But no, it appears it just wasn't to be.
Oh well there's always next year...
