SIR - What a lovely sight to see the photograph (T&A, April 23) of all those Scouts outside Saltaire United Reformed Church. At least someone has a mind of their own.

There is far more health and safety in Scouts than in Sikhs carrying large swords.

When I was in the Girl Guides many years ago, it was a proud day for all.

Long live St George's Day.
