The Queendom of Decadence and Opulance hands out royal honours once a year. The awards celebrate the special contribution that an individual has made in ther respective field...
That's ther theory. However, Queen Sarah II has been known knight men on her own trival whim http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0903/verkleidung/costumed-smiley-061.gif

Unlike The British Honour's system, a Decadonian honour cannot be refused. We don't want that happening do we? Talk about embarrassing!

The recipients will make their way towards Twiddlebottom Palace in the state capital, Sodom. The will be driven in a traditional pink limousine and escorted by an entourage of scary looking blokes in loincloths.

The Honoured ones are as follows:

Knights of the Decadonian Realm:
Theocrat Christopher Robertson (for his service as regional delegate in troubled times, and because he's sore that I didn't put him on my flag)
Alex Wilkes (for services to my social life)
Ray Davies (well Queen Liz has given him a CBE, so I'm going one better)
Keith Richards (to even him out with Mick Jagger)
Chuck Berry (for hugely influencing those two chaps above and for basically being rock n roll)

Dames:
Sue Wynne (for services to the AMHS Art Department)
Shirley Bassey (for services to countless James Bond theme tunes)
Aretha Franklin (for services to soul music)
Martha Reeves (ditto)

Commanders of the Decadonian Realm (CDR)
Damian Shaw (for services to pseudo-random)
Christopher Parker (for services to undiluted evil)
Rachael Crane (for being all sweetness and light, unlike yours truly)

Orders of the Decadonian Realm (ODR)
Peter Kay for services to northen comedy
Beeker (or whatever guise he adopts) (for seviced to humour on the NS General Forum)

Member of the Decadonian Realm (MBR)
Burt Bacharach (for wrting all my Mum's favourite songs)
Aaron the Irish Guy (because he'll go to war with me if I don't give him something)
Bury FC mascot Robbie the Bobbie (truly a God amongst violent football mascots)

Recipients of the Bauble of Honorary Coolness
Stuart Roberts (for cultivating the greatest inferiority complex ever...and for not requesting a higher honour)
Isaac Hayes (for being South Park's Chef, and from what I can judge from that documentary I saw, a nice character)
James Brown (already King of the Mojo 8) )
Rolf Harris (just because :P )

Well, this is truly an honour. Thank you so very much, Your Majesty. A real privelege. Will you be joining me at the conference?

Thank you my dear, I'm sure that was a typo there about war, and my proper title is "The Great Leader Aaron".....really, you ought to have those clerks who write this stuff sent to Aaronisia for a little retraining in their ways....

I'm aiming for Knight of the Realm next year for my services to peace and security in the region (you'll see...wait until this conference is over....) though I'll take what I can get.

The Great must not be among you but leading you towards greatness
