Someone has tickets on herself ...

... I came across this comment today, reading the good old SMH.
"The singer, who now lives in London, told the court she preferred to be addressed as Dame Kiri."[To address me by] first name would be inappropriate," she told Justice Patricia Bergin."I'm normally called Dame Kiri, otherwise Ms Te Kanawa would be too long for anyone to pronounce," she said."
So from now on I'm Ms Mouse or your Grace! Anything less would simply be inappropriate.

Maybe she did the same aristocracy thing that we did, your Grace.

I think the Dame got pinged on the shoulder by the real life actual Mrs Queenie, your Grace.
I sometimes feel our titles are a little like thoes uni degrees you can get on line.
