| Introduction | I've added Blount to Jan Loxley to differentiate myself from another Jan Loxley who appears to be involved in charity fundraising. My entire career was as Jan Loxley and there are publications in that name which are mine. My children are Loxley-Blount and by adding Blount to my name I'm affirming my pride in their achievements. David is a talented photographer and is becoming noticed as an upcoming young composer of organ, choral and other music. Helen has a stunning classically trained mezzo voice and a fierce intellect but at the moment illness prevents her realising her full potential.

Compose the lyrics to a new national anthem that features an animal sound at least once:
I'm not a composer but my son is - ask him!
