The Dial Up pays respect to HM Queen Elizabeth II

 


On Sunday 11th September, I was honoured to lead Watford in singing the national anthem, God Save The King, outside the town hall as the official proclamation of King Charles III was read. It was of course a sombre occasion in the wake of the sad news of the death of Queen Elizabeth II. Royalist or republican, we all recognise the immense impact her devotion to her role as figurehead of state played in maintaining our sense of national unity. There was, however, also a note of ebullience as we looked ahead to life under our new monarch, and the opportunities for progress that might afford. Here's wishing everyone happiness and health. Much love, Alex xx
