I COULD HAVE HAD ONE OF THEM, YOU KNOW

John Peel suggested the reason why he accepted his OBE was because, otherwise, you'd only be stood around in the pub banging on about how you were offered one, but turned it down. Clearly, you either accept these things or you don't; turning down and then still claiming the glory compounds the empty gesture with even emptier bragging: if it's worth mentioning, why wasn't it worth accepting? In case you haven't guessed, it's Boy George who's telling us just what a rebel he is by saying "no" to Queen Liz. And, doubtless, he'll even show you the letter from the Palace. That he said "no" to.
