Anthem for our time

INSPIRED by Richard Littlejohn, can I suggest a new version of the National Anthem for the Platinum Jubilee: God save our gracious Queen If only we could have seen What lay ahead. Cross o’er the sea to us By boat or omnibus Why should we make a fuss? God save the Queen. GORDON MORRIS,

Southwick, Wilts. THE obvious replacement for our turgid National Anthem is the uplifting Thunderbirds theme tune.
