Minster Canary 0 Posted June 13, 2009 For recognition of her TV cookery programmes and her recipe books, for a moment I thought it would be down to her football roots! Anyway, good on the woman, we may not hold her in great regard in terms of NCFC, but she''s done herself proud with this.Well done, Delia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Walking Man 13 Posted June 13, 2009 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8097237.stmThankfully it''s not for services to football, but congratulations to Delia a CBE is indeed a great honour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes its a great acheivement, and well done to her personally. But I think I am objective enough to seperate her on screen persona as a celeb chef (of which I have very little interest) and admit that she is very successful. As opposed to her role within Norwich City (of which I have got a lot of interest) and admit that she has been found to be woefully short!!!![:@] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
