   And this is me, DP, thanking especially those who Commented or emailed me so positively about the ‘honour’, and to whom I immediately confessed. All in good spirits!

   Brilliant, David! I was totally deceived – partly because it would of course have been so well-deserved. Anyway, Lord Peace of Marylebone you shall remain, to us!

   Got me too! I’m hoping it’s a double bluff though…

   I practiced and practiced my courtesy, however like an earlier comment, it may be a double bluff! Enjoy the day xx

   I was had, as well, Tony! I agree that a gong is well deserved but am glad you got the better of some of us, too, Dave! Am sure that Malc would have spotted it, straight away, and had a huge belly laugh! xx

   At the heart of a good April Fool’s prank is plausibility and given how we are ready to believe you are deserving of some recognition we were “fish in a barrel” for your jest.

   Wonderful! You do deserve an honour! I did not register the date but did wonder as I always understood that revealing it beforehand was virtually a hanging offence! And I thought you would observe protocol, but I am sure we would all say Arise Sir Dave!
