    Just a note John, my Grandfather was in the Signals in the Boer War and he told me that when all the horses and their Riders were in line, if you stood about ten feet way you should only see ONE horse and Rider nothing else! My Grandfather was a true Horse Whisperer and in his retirement he used to go to the local race course, and as soon as the Jockies saw him, they all wanted him to calm their horses down. He adored his horses and during WW2 he was in charge of GWR stables, during Air Raids he would leave my sister, mother and myself and go and be with his beloved horses! Our father was in the Army!

      Thank you for your kind remarks. My Grandfather had so many tales that he would tell me about his time in Africa. One day he found an injured polecat and took it back to camp with him. Unfortunately the African Polecat is the equivalent of a skunk, and he had to clean himself and his horse before they would let him back into camp! He made a safe bed for it outside the camp, and fed and watered it until it recovered! It never sprayed him again so maybe it was grateful.

      War die Übersetzung nicht korrekt???????
      ""Die Socken haben sie von Geburt an und Verändern sich nicht?????"""
      Die Pferde haben Hufe ! aber keine Socken....Hufe wachsen wie Fingernagel beim Menschen.
      Gehen die Pferde auf festen Boden, wie der Innenhof, nutzen die sich ab und zwar schnell.
      Deshalb haben die Pferde Eisen, was bei hoher Beanspruchung nach 4-6 Wochen gewechselt werden muss.
      Ich habe Röntgenbilder gesehen wo der Huf abgelaufen war und die Pferde nicht mehr gehen konnten oder geritten werden....
      Und die Garde hat eigene Schmiede für die Pferde.
      Bei den Betonböden nutzen die Hufe sich sowieso schneller ab. Da die Pferde dort sehr gut gepflegt werden, ist es unwahrscheinlich das die Hufe ablaufen und das Pferd nicht mehr zu Retten ist.
      Nein, Socken!!! haben die bestimmt nicht!!!

    As this Military, I don't understand, why tourists seem to think they can go where they like, when No Soldier or police, are in certain areas. I mean , does Rain hurt them. They constantly behave like Children. Pathetic. 🇬🇧🤨💦

    I am a devoted fan of all things UK. Thank you John for your perfect filming and narration. I live in a vacation destination with several million tourists throughout the summer months. We refer to them with a term tourons, a combination on tourist and moron. So i am sympathetic when i see your tourists doing stupid sometimes dangerous things. The Guards are magnificent, the horses are divine. I wish i knew their names. I'll shock you by saying i enjoy when the Guards shout, or the horses get bitey or pushy when tourists get too close. My favorite is when one of the horses reached out a hoof and placed it squarely on a man's foot. I stay up after 4 a.m. watching and loving every video. Bless you sir and i wish you and yours a very Happy New Year.

    IE if you are a fan of the royals over here in the uk and a tourist comes over and wants to visit the royal tradition, tourist assume that while they know that the guards are not allowed to laugh etc the tourist will try, because they see it as the royal history museum as in the guards dress the part to suit the grounds in giving tourist the very royal experience when really the guards are infact real soldiers who are on duty and carry real weapons swords and loaded guns its not a costume its their uniform that's why they cant laugh etc the police are there for added protection and to control the public as the guards duty are there to protect the king and all his estate's and property and not there for photos so getting a photo is just something the guards have had to accustom to,

    I love watching the horses and the people .I've always been a people watcher.I don't understand the difference between the guards ,but I've not been watching for very long . I like your commentary on what's happening most of the time. That horse with the fluffy forlock is awesome. There all so big. They look like they're 16-18+ hands high .the one on the other day I was watching was huge! You called him Overlord. Big huge horse. Some of the best groomed horses I've ever seen. Sitting for 6hours John , would lead to blood clots in the legs of the guards . not to mention fatigue ,saddle sores . be a bad thing.

      Not just for the guards. In spite of the beliefs of the “oooooh it’s CRUEL” brigade, the horses health and well being is a priority in HHCav. In fact it’s above that of the troopers(lol that’s typical army tbh 😅 horses are valuable and hard to replace, troopers are a dime a dozen and a snap to replace 😂 yes I’m joking-mostly)hence the foot guards doing 2 hour hour stints while the horses do 1. While horses have evolved to stand all the time, it’s a bit tougher on hard surfaces rather than grass or dirt, and more importantly the riders weight standing still for long periods wouldn’t be good for their backs. An hour is nothing, and in fact they could do a fair bit longer without any strain but they limit it to the lower end.

Love that clippy cloppy time too, that poor guard issuing the orders seemed to have a light voice failure with a squeak in his voice hope, I notice too the horses get frightened, when the guards shout about reins and charge forward the poor horses look like what the hell just happened.

    [sigh] ... People can be SO stupid! At the risk of sounding like I want to turn the MOD into the entrance hall at Hogwarts School, - when Dolores Umbridge - a member of the British Ministry of Magic, and was the Hogwarts Inquisitor, and was made Head Mistress of Hogwarts, and promptly told Filch [the 'caretaker' ] to put up sign, after sign, after sign, denying the children of the school to even so much as breathe without permission .... I think it's way past time now that there were signs on the columns(?) between the arches, telling the thick people who walk among us, that they *AREN'T ALLOWED IN THE ARCHES, NOR ALLOWED TO SIT ON THE CHAINS* . ... Yes, a nice polite sign (disguising the message of *Naff Off* to idiots) might just do the trick! 😁
