SIR – I am told that after a recent ceremony, an official at Westminster Abbey expressed his emotion by performing some “cartwheels”.

It is a custom as old as mankind to express joy and thanksgiving by dancing and singing.

In the Second Book of Samuel, Ch6 v14 we read: “And David danced before the Lord with all his might.”

So, performing cartwheels after Prince William’s wedding was as natural as breathing.

Unfortunately, there are some people who make a virtue out of being miserable and trying to spoil things.

The rest of us simply laugh!
