It does, and I'm not taking anything away from the person you know by saying I think the whole honour system is a farce. It just all seems so arbitrary, with so many hard working people going unrewarded, and most of the honours going to the super annuated, fat cat, civil servants in Whitehall, or those purely selfless benefactors to any of the main political parties who end up with a Peerage.
