Good news for Katie Price (aka Jordan).
She may be getting divorced from Peter Andre today, but she will be able to take solace from the fact that she made it into Country Life's 100 Most Powerful People in the Countryside list.
She crept into 100th spot with the mag (which I've mentioned before because of its bizarrely posed ladies) declaring her "an ambassador for the 2012 equestrian sports" and citing the huge queues at her stand at Badminton and Burghley as evidence of her "drawing power".
Alongside the usual suspects, the list has some surprising inclusions, such as Bear Grylls in his role as Chief Scout (24th), explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes for "putting the backbone into Britain" (35th) and Hay Festival founder Peter Florence for showing that "rural Wales can be as intellectually powerful as London or Manhattan" (52nd).
Quite what Lib Dem MP Lembit Opik is doing in there at 46, I can't imagine. Whatever next? Katie Price as a Country Life frontispiece?
Oh dear I just spat my coffee over my keyboard again!!
Am amazed you don't have any "melon" jokes yet Tim or are you saving that for a future post?
Think I shall go back to the nude farmer pictures ... not that I was peeping honestly.
