Jilly Cooper gets OBE

[Natural Born Eros]

For those of you spared the ridiculous nature of the Queen's honours list, essentially, this is a medal and an honorary position bestowed on "deserving" British citizens twice a year.

Jilly may not be quite "one of us" but it is still nice to see an author best known for her smut being greeted and honoured by her maj', say I. Gives us all renewed hope...
