I have two comments on the badge thing. One, a badge bar would be a nice thing, and would ben fairly easy to connect between two lamp brackets.

Two: As you may gather from my screen name, I am a Dentist. I used to work for the State of Virginia as a Public Health Dentist, and as a joke at one of our annual meetings, I had a police-type badge made that had the State of Virginia Seal, and "Public Health Dentist" engraved into it. I asked all the new hires if they had received their badges yet. Obviously they all said "no" and started asking about when they would get them, Drove the director crazy! It was absolutely professional looking. It seems that police, fire, EMS and other services use "stock" badge types, with stock enamelled centers, and engraving of the Town's name or the service. These companies are set up for small runs, since a small town fire department might have only 20 or so members.

I simply picked the metal badge type, The State Seal. And the Engraving. I only had one made and it was not real expensive. A nice fireman type badge with a Union Jack Center, and Mini Cooper and Mini2.com engraved on it would probably work fine. I am unfamiliar with what badges look like in say, England, but I am sure someone there could order a low run of badges with a Union Jack center fairly inexpensively.
