Just had my day at Buckingham Palace!! Investiture on Friday 16 June 2017 to receive an MBE for services to British music in Japan. Prince Charles presented me with my medal and he was an absolute delight, we had a very friendly chat and a bit of a laugh. It was the most special day and I have to say the spirit of the occasion was a lot of fun with all of the incredible people I met and the welcoming Palace staff. What a lucky man I am. A couple of snaps here, professional photos are on the way.
I shall be writing a full recollection of the day here on my website soon plus reports on the British Chamber of Commerce in Japan website and on LHR – London Hit Radio broadcast across Japan on InterFM 89.7 and Love FM.
Congratulations Guy on receipt of your MBE.
Love the pics, you look like you had a thoroughly wonderful day in the beautiful English sunshine.
Hope to see you in Tokyo in the Autumn.
Best wishes & regards,
Sue & Clive.
Hi Sue & Clive
Thank you so much for your very kind message. It was the most extraordinary day, and yes the English summertime weather was perfect!! A shame we could not celebrate with you in London but Tokyo definitely.
With love
Guy
