A popular former Hitchin fish and chip shop owner has penned a poem ahead of the The Coronation this May.

The Coronation of His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen Consort will take place at Westminster Abbey on Saturday, May, 6 - with ceremonial, celebratory and community events taking place over the Coronation Weekend between Saturday (May 6) and Monday (May 8).

Regular Nub News readers may recall Hitchin resident and former boss of the popular Town Fryer, Alan Doggett, penned a poem in honour of our late monarch at the time of Her Majesty's sad passing here.

However, as we approach the crowning of Elizabeth II's son, the former Prince Charles, Mr Doggett has written a more jaunty ditty to hail the forthcoming day.

With the Westminster service set to reflect the Monarch's role today and look towards the future, while being rooted in longstanding traditions and pageantry, Mr Doggett's jolly poem is full of positivity.

Oh, What Jubilation: A Coronation

Oh, what jubilation: A Coronation

The sixth of May Is Coronation Day

The bells will ring

We will have a new King

If you've not heard

He will be King Charles the third

And along with Camilla by his side

She will be crowned The Queen Consort with pride

The procession to the Palace where many will be

Then The Royal Family waving from the balcony

The next day a concert from Windsor Castle grounds

A large and diverse assortment of sounds

So in our communities lets be jolly and hearty

And get together for a great street party

So on Bank Holiday Monday what's it all about

We're being encouraged to volunteer and help out

Looking at this exciting occasion

We will unite and rejoice as a nation

Support our Royal Family without a fuss

Let's strengthen the country for all of us
