Whilst perusing the Sunday papers I came across an article concerning the music of North Korea, which listed eight of the most-commonly played anthems for the general populace to enjoy, everywhere they go and with everything they do.

These are my alternative titles.

1. I Love my Arthritis.

2. Raise Your Crutches to Wave.

3. We Shall Hold Hand-rails More Firmly.

4. My Body Full of Happiness.

5. The Joy of Bumper Meds Drawer Overflows Amidst the Song of Mechanical Joints.

6. Song of Pain Relief.

7. The World Envies Us.

8. I Also Raise Children.


There is one title which I have not altered - can you spot it? Yup, thought so! :wink: DD

    Clearly, the unadulterated one is 'I love My Arthritis'. Don't we all :lol:

    I've read the list several times now and each time I come to No 2 I find myself silently singing it to the tune of the old Eurovision song 'Kisses For Me'.

    All together now:

    'Crutches to Wave
    Raise all your crutches to wave.
    'Bye 'bye baby. 'Bye 'bye etc etc'.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Oh your THR's connected to your thigh bone
    Your thigh bone's connected to your TKR.
    Your TKR's connected to your leg bone.
