Oh dear John how did you not recognize the glorious Monty, nothing ever bothers him.😀 I have noticed a lot of the MOD police lately are not as good as the usual ones especially on the weekends.
When the blind gent said to the trooper, 'stay safe,' then to the horse, 'you too' that really cracked me up. the trooper showed the greatest respect, Such a lovely gent, great respect too them both. then then the blind gent says 'thank you', a wonderful moment.....
I think people should think those soldiers died to set us FREE IT IS SHAMEFUL OF THE PEOPLE WHO FILM AT HORSE GUARDS NOT TO WEAR A POPPY. You care John and so we all should they were peoples loved ones who gave their lives to save themx
A big thank you for the tour today John. I am a Londoner, aged 83 years old but haven’t been to my beloved city for many years. A friend is taking me for a Christmas treat to see the decorations in Oxford Street and then to Soho where I lived in the 60’s if I am strong enough but your tour made me so very happy. Again, thank you.
Goedeavond, Vandaag keek mijn dochter en ik op de BBC een mooie mars. We hebben het op Google opgezocht. Klopt het de Mayor stond met een grote driehoekhoed. Het was prachtig❤
What an absolutely brilliant guard for letting the blind man stroke and pat the horse, that was great respect for the man and yes I don't blame you for having a go at the spammers for filming that blind man, that was definitely not on what they were doing, they should be totally ashamed of themselves!! 😡😡😡
If they can shove their cameras into a blind man's face they don't deserve any private conversations. Well done John, I love how you never back down and you always have our service men and women's backs...❤
I'm a Canadian / Brit dual national living in the UK, the Canadian consulate is actually called the Canadian High Commission as we're still in the commonwealth, or just Canada House. For any Canadians living in the UK, they sell the Royal Canadian Legion poppies in there, might be late now for this year, but they sell them every year in the run up to Remerance Day. There will also be quite a few Canadians marching tomorrow for Rememberance Sunday in London amd around the UK, both current serving and veterans alike who like me served in the UK military, the Canadian High Commissioner will also be laying a wreath at the Cenotaph as will all the other high commissioners from their respected high commissions here in the UK. There's a lovely gallery inside Canada House, they often do cultural Canadian events inside too. Huge respect for sticking up for the blind veteran and showing respect!
John, thank you for once again, being the voice of decency and respect. The spammers are truly vultures circling around HG waiting for a rare or unusual moment to occur so they can swoop in and intrude on a private moment or record a mishap. They truly don’t understand respect, even when you tried to explain. You tried. 😢 Otherwise this was a perfectly wonderful video today with an amazing walk through Piccadilly, Trafalgar Square, and our beloved Horse Guards. Have a lovely Remembrance Day. With love and appreciation as always, from Royal Oak Michigan USA ♥️🇺🇸🐴🐴🇬🇧♥️ 🌺🌺🌺
That was a beautiful moment for the visually impaired gentlemen with Zambezi , well handled Trooper you treated him with respect something the spammers know nothing about ! Noticed number 1 spammer is absent must be the first day he's missed in months 😂😂😂. Lovely walk at the beginning thanks John .
May I ask you a question, please? How does a person "DM" John if they find one of his videos on line where it shouldn't be? I tried twice on Instagram but so far my "invite" hasn't been accepted or sent (not sure how that works), so I have no idea how to "DM" him other than that. Do you have any insight? Thanks for any help and thanks for being you. Love and Blessings from Missouri, USA.
Good to see no phone boxes . Please take different routes to Horse Guards everyday it gives us a chance to see the sights that in person we may never see.
Massive respect to you, John, for defending the veteran who was allowed to touch the horse. Also massive respect to the Trooper who interacted with the veteran. He was very alert regarding how his horse was behaving towards the man. You were spot on regarding the spammers and I agree with everything you said to them. You were very calm and respectful although she was not towards you. I'm dumbfounded she had the nerve to call you "racist." Sheer ignorance. Pretty sure the Trooper listened to your conversation; he looked pretty stern. This video certainly did "end with a bang, not a whimper." Excellent work.
I also noticed the Trooper listening! I really, really wanted him to move Zambezi to the front of the box " because the horse just decided to take a few steps..."
I was so wanting to see this… 🤛🏼 I’m not a confrontational woman, but morals need to be up-held when out in public, especially when at someones place of work… Cheers John 🤛🏼
Thank you, John, for calling out the spammers on their disrespectful behavior. The gentleman was blind and was allowed to touch the horse. To stick their cameras in his face was a step in the wrong direction. I am so glad you called them on that and demanded that they respect those who served their country.
The act of wearing a poppy is a personal choice, and individuals should not feel compelled to do so. Wearing a poppy does not confer superiority over others. Bullying others into wearing one shows your true character. Philanthropy and donating to a cause should ideally be conducted discreetly, without the necessity of displaying a symbol. You are a tattletale aka a rat. If you are brownnosing to Hcav for whatever reason, remember, nobody likes nor trusts a rat. The actions of others are not your concern. Engaging in daily name-calling and arrogant belittling behavior to strangers and people in general suggests underlying issues related to ego and self-esteem. The individuals in question are not causing you any direct harm; therefore, it is unclear why one would seek to damage their reputation or hinder their ability to earn a living. They possess the same rights to participate as you do. Is it possible that you feel insecure, fearing that they may detract from your audience or revenue generated from your channel? The focus has shifted from the original subject matter to a personal vendetta against those who do not interfere with your pursuits. Such behavior can be characterized as petty. You call them spammers yet you do "the exact the same thing as they do" whether or not it is for 1 hour or 8 hours, it is the same. Mind your own business bc your channel really sux now. I'ts boring, both you and your content. Same route, same phone boxes, same narrative, yada, yada, yada. You don't truly care about the horses and troopers, you only care about the money and it shows clearly. Regroup, reevaluate and revamp or find something else to do. The other channels, without the ugly commentary, have a nice organic feel that provide a true feeling of actually being there.
Well done for calling those vultures out. Despicable. Loved the opening today. Great to see the sights along the way. The drums and pipes were wonderful background to the guards and horses. Hope you have a peaceful evening after that “chat” with those two at the end.
Just seen the two spammers…you should raise it publicly and you should also have shown their faces. They are disrespectful even when you are being polite. Well done for calling them out 👏👏
I love how you stand up for what's right and decent. For that, and your adorable cheeky wit, is why I'm addicted to your channel. My father would have liked you, and that is the highest praise in my eyes. My father passed when I was 29, I'm 71 now, and I still think before I do something, "Would Dad be proud of me for this?". He taught me never to just stand by and do nothing if you see something is wrong, because then you are just as bad, and it's cowardly. If you can't physically do something, at least report it, everyone is capable of that. You have the best channel and a blessing for people such as myself who would love to travel, but can't due to physical limitations. You brighten my days, thank you. And as a mother-in-law to a (fabulous!) man in the service, I'd like to extend to the guards a thank you for their service, they're not appreciated and respected enpugh.
Good for you calling out the spammers. They should be banned or their faces put out to social media Great respect for the horse guard for the visually impaired man.
I agree with you. I deal with spammers every day I ban them. Wish I was with John's I would make the spammers life bad I would bump into them or get in front of their camera's just have fun with them
John im glad you told off them stupid spammers. You don't disrespect a blind guy like give the guy some space. They need to stop wish I was their I would let them film what I have to say to them. Yes you had every right to say something cause if you did not who would? 1:06:23
John that woman will not listen to you she does not care. She is like talking to a brick wall and she is very stupid. She would not like me im like you try to say what needs to be said..
When all else fails, throw in the race card. If you can''t respect yourself, you won't respect others. Wear a Poppy, your free to record for a reason. Never pass on an educated moment! LEST WE FORGET"
Hello John: I am an American Veteran living in the USA, I love your videos of the Horse Guards and learning about their service. They are very highly trained soldiers. I don't think the tourists realize that. Your videos show apart of what they do. I used to live and work in England for about 2 years awhile ago. I loved it, loved all the history. Keep up the great work you do.
Hi John, Oh my word why do they always bring up the race card. Good for you John for standing up to those stupid scammers. Thank you have a great evening
Hello John, I noticed that the trooper is standing in a safer position in the tunnel. At least his back is protected today as he had the wall to his back. It made a nice change to walk to Horse Guard’s from that direction. Keep up your splendid videos. Have a wonderful weekend. 🇬🇧
Go John Huge respect to you, for calling the spammers out, and standing your ground, with trying to explain to them in a polite manner, they are disrespectful.
Good job John for stand up to the blind man and the guard. Talking to people like the spammers. You will never get anywhere with them. Wish you a very nice rememberies day.. From a former U.S army Vet. Take care.😊😊
Thank you for this beautiful video and sharing your beautiful country with us. I honor all service men and women serving and those that have given their lives protecting.❤ my dad served 25 years thank you also for saying something to the spammers for disrepect..
I live in the US and really enjoy tour videos and have learned alot about the Kings Guards. Thank you. Plus love how you say something from disrespectful tourists no matter where they are from!
Thank you for saying something to the spammers for all of us that would like to say something ourselves. Bravo to the troopers being so kind to the blind gentleman. Also, thank you for the different walk to Horse Guard's this morning. Cheers from California.
Hello everyone )) Great to have a different route to Horse Guards. Stunning horses as always !! I'm glad you called out the disrespectful lady (i use that term loosely) spammer... Unfortunately you cant reason with some people, it's like trying to play chess with a pigeon !!!
Oh my gosh. How thick are some people....:we're not in the box"! What? I can only sit here and shake my head. I'm so glad you confronted them on their abysmal behavior. They just need to be gone, in my opinion. Your "live streams" are delightful, John. Thanks for all of your efforts. Have an amazing Remembrance Day; our Veteran's Day is on Monday. We will be getting our poppies in memory of those who served. Love and Blessings from Missouri, USA.
What I did not like about those Spammers were when the blind man bless his heart turned and walked away they turned their cameras in his direction as if to follow him until he went out of sight. Respect to the Boxman who let him pet the the horse 🐎 Well done Trooper Zambesee and well done Trooper. You done very well John to tell those spammers off for disrespecting the Blind man.
Hello John, great video. Enjoyed the tour, love seeing the sights through your eyes. Thank you for confronting the spammers. I appreciate your dedication to keeping horse guards respectful for the troopers.
I absolutely love the way you show respect and stand up for the troopers. Everyone should take a page out of your book. I love watching your videos because you are respectful. Thank you for sharing your time
So few people know the correct way to wear their poppy … the veteran trooper will confirm what I’m saying. It can be on any side but position the leaf at 11.00hrs to represent the 11th hour , of the 11th day, of the 11th month when the guns fell silent. 🌺🌺🌺
Thank you for the new opening location! Had never seen Piccadilly Circus area. Beautiful walk area. Christmas Market area cute. Interesting area, from the Canadian Consulate to the fountains, to Parliamentary Square. The spammers are mindlessly standing, silently filming, hoping for the one event they can exploit. Your approach was excellent. Well done! I suspect they will post, no matter. Spammers are like vultures. The woman clearly has no clue of respect and common decency. The woman doesn’t have a clue and wants to argue. She’s actually unclear on pre-filming and live stream. You handled with respect and dignity.
@@ginatulipana5145 Canada and the UK are Commonwealth countries. The embassies (consulates are lesser field offices) of Commonwealth countries that are located in the capital cities of other Commonwealth countries are called High Commissions. So Canada has a High Commission in Canberra but an Embassy in Paris. That’s trivia I wouldn’t expect an American to know offhand, but Brits should understand the Commonwealth (and so often don’t).
Great surprise opener . Enjoyed the detour. Troopers spot on today. Thank you as always, John , for being the respectful person you are. Appreciative of your respect for the retired officer being given the chance to interact with the horse. The Horse sensed the man's respect and seemed to equally enjoy the encounter. You are to be commended with addressing the rude spammer. You spoke truth to her and confronted her disrespect in a respectful manner. Kudos , John.
Again John you are correct, they are despicable, thank you for confronting the spammers, the term oompah loompa’s, 😅 had me choking on my drink, No respect was given to the serving troopers, past or present. Thank you again 😊
Good morning John! Remembering those who sacrificed, I remember when poppies were worn here in the US when I was a child. Thanks for venturing out on this day! Hope you are ok after reading title of this video! Thanks for your integrity!❤️from🇺🇸
I remember everyone wearing poppies in the US, when I was a child. I was born in 1950 so the war was fresh in the hearts of the country. I would like to see poppies in the US again.
@@Cherylgielowhi, I’m from the USA, I don’t recall seeing poppy’s being worn here in California? It would be nice to wear a poppy here at home. Unfortunately in today’s society I don’t believe Americans take the time to celebrate the military’s from around the world that sacrificed their life for peace. Thank you for your post.
Totally agree - as an artist, the wonky perspective on the old sign was driving me absolutely bonkers! It's still not quite right, but it's much better.
Afternoon John time the spammers were once and for all banned they have no respect and no idea of the tradition or history that horse guards are about . Remembering the fallen tomorrow ❤ . I’m from a military family past and present so feel the spammers disrespect . Thank you John .
Oh give over, his self-reflection is completely lacking. He is himself, a spammer, just a talkaltive one. What bans them will also affect him. I'm also growing a little tired of John's own "rules" to what is respect.
Those spammers pouncing like that for a bit of footage they can splash all over social media. Glad you called them out John even though they're too blinkered to understand!
John I love your interaction with the scammers..you tell them how it is..and they don't like it!!! There is going to come a time when there are no "incidents" at Horse Guards for them to film..so hopefully they will go away!!! Thanks for all you do!!! ❤❤❤ xxxxxxx
I respect and admire all the military but the Household Cavalry really still make me proud to be British and nowadays there are not many reasons to feel that. The spammers are typical of what not to be proud of they havnt a clue what their filming and I bet they know nothing about the history. Purely using them as a cash cow. I’m glad touching and getting too close is banned now or they would be taking film up the horses nostrils and posting that by now. What a contrast to your videos John you are an unashamed patriot and gentleman always interesting and frequently very witty and humorous with your observations. As well as not being afraid to call out disrespect to the Guards and Horses. Always a treat to watch your videos. Thankyou.
Well done John for outing those spammers, it's frustrating for us subscribers to watch and not be able to confront them ourselves, so well done to you. Perhaps you should have a quiet word to the police to have them check the spammers identity, and if they are in the UK legally, and don't have forged papers. Regards.
John, the buildings in London are so beautiful. It will be great if you can show them in your videos every now and again. Thanks.❤ John, I have to edit and add this bit....it's funny hearing you moan or kinda regret walking through trafalgar square etc when you were stuck in the crowd with the music! 😂 I know I shouldn't be adding stuff in again...but after watching the trooper let the blind person touch the horse for quite a while, I'm moved by his kindness. Do you notice that he actually told the man accompanying the blind person to step outside the box whilst the blind man was touching the horse. This was to show the other tourists that he was only making an exception for the blind person who thanked him and the horse afterwards. This just warmed my heart tremendously. Most of the troopers are very kind to special needs people and should deserve lots of respect from everyone. ❤
Hi John. What a beautiful, wonderful, touching moment between the ex-service man, the Trooper & Zambezee ❤🌺 And, you were right to call out the Spammers for their disrespect. They kept their cameras trained on the ex-service man as he left with his carer. Shame on them.
They are free to stand on the public highway and film BECAUSE of the service and sacrifice of our veterans. The Poppy is a symbol of our respect - LEST WE FORGET!
Oh boy, talking to these two spammer ladies is like trying to nail jelly to a wall - pointless. Are they really complaining of being filmed by you while they are filming others without any decency? 🙄 My English is not good enough to write what I think...😠 But I love it that you started the video at another place than usual. The architecture is so stunnig 😍
Hi John like you l was really enjoying your video immensely Then you confronted the spammers and proved what a caring and respectful person you are thank you for all your you do ❤
I really enjoyed seeing another part of London today. Have only been watching daily for a few weeks. Thank you for your daily watches and respect of the horses and troopers.
Thank you John for trying to help those spammers to understand respect, sadly they just don't want to know. Love the way the trooper was with the gentleman. If they were to watch your videos they would see how respect should be given, you are superb
Get’em John! She has no ability to understand. Respect for a blind former serving soldier. Respect trumps civil rights that may or may not exist in another country.
1:02:30 good for you, John its about time they got told. There are some events that are so priceless, the pleasure that the ex blind soldier got was magical. At least Zambezi head got in the way of the scammers camera. Thank you trooper and Zambezi for your kindness to the gentleman. Have a nice day John.
Thanks from the USA for a different look at London today. I would love for you to go through that way again, but slower. There were a couple of theatres that I wanted to have a closer look, and I would like to see the Christmas wares being sold, but you walked faster than I could look! Ha! I know you love the horses, but London is much more than just the changing of the guard. Please show more. ❤
Im the type of person that would stand in their view and block what they are trying to film. Having a disabled Aunty, I am well versed from the time I was 4years old, standing and blocking the view of disrespectful people. Ive never used words, just my body. My aunty has since passed away, but Ill never forget the faces of those who stood and stared and pointed at her for decades. They sound like the chinese aunties who have no respect for anyone or anything.
Just heard you talking to a fellow countrywoman (of mine) John , I met you myself last year, the day before the Colonel’s Review to which we were both going! Funnily enough you said the same thing to me about not knowing where I was from if I hadn’t told you! 🤣 anyway God willing I’m off to London next June so perhaps I’ll get the chance to say hello again. I’m looking forward to the Remembrance parade (on TV) whilst I wear my 5 poppies (still counting), I buy one every time I see them, can’t pass the opportunity 😆. All the best, keep videoing 😊
Thank goodness you are prepared to stick your neck out, people like these always have to pull the old racist card because they know they are in the wrong. Great video 🙂
Loving your little unscheduled tour of London…my favorite sight so far are the Lions at Lord Nelson’s monument. I love how you share your knowledge…thank you!
🎉dear John, Tthank you for that lovely tour this morning... I haven't been back to London since I moved to Canada in 1981... I worked on Haymarket, when I got off work I headed to Trafalgar Square, past Canada House to the front of the National Gallery where I caught the number 24 bus home... you traced my daily route. Much changed since 1981, but still wonderful. I also get a nostalgic tweak whenever I see a Number 24 bus going by Horse Guards. Thank you for your tour today.
Loved how when you arrived and said boo I think you said it to the horse but you were stood infront of the 2 spammers bet they thought you were saying it to them
Good morning or afternoon for you! Like following you around. My last trip to London in May was visiting museums but next time hopefully will be able to just walk around and visit areas like you are showing. ❤

Oh dear John how did you not recognize the glorious Monty, nothing ever bothers him.😀
I have noticed a lot of the MOD police lately are not as good as the usual ones especially on the weekends.
You handled them female spammers well John, them filming that blind man like that was so disrespectful of them
It is so nice to find you John. For a few weeks I couldn't find you. It's so nice to hear your voice again.
When the blind gent said to the trooper, 'stay safe,' then to the horse, 'you too' that really cracked me up. the trooper showed the greatest respect, Such a lovely gent, great respect too them both. then then the blind gent says 'thank you', a wonderful moment.....
That blind man told the Guard to stay safe and said to the horse and you too,brough tears to my eyes
I missed that - how wonderful! Thank you for sharing this.
@@angelabushby1891 I didn't hear what was said, thank you for sharing, it brought tears to my eyes what a wonderful gentleman and his carer.
🎖Awarded to our John for standing up against obnoxious disrespectful morons!
I think people should think those soldiers died to set us FREE IT IS SHAMEFUL OF THE PEOPLE WHO FILM AT HORSE GUARDS NOT TO WEAR A POPPY. You care John and so we all should they were peoples loved ones who gave their lives to save themx
Well said
A big thank you for the tour today John. I am a Londoner, aged 83 years old but haven’t been to my beloved city for many years.

Goedeavond,

What an absolutely brilliant guard for letting the blind man stroke and pat the horse, that was great respect for the man and yes I don't blame you for having a go at the spammers for filming that blind man, that was definitely not on what they were doing, they should be totally ashamed of themselves!! 😡😡😡
It’s also their culture.
Respect doesn’t exist in it.
Totally agree with you.

😊😅😮
If they can shove their cameras into a blind man's face they don't deserve any private conversations. Well done John, I love how you never back down and you always have our service men and women's backs...❤
These ladies should be asked to just move on
I love How John stays true to His Morals and Beliefs..
@@julielambell5215or to bugger off😂😂😂
Totally agree
The trooper was so kind to the blind gentleman! ❤❤❤❤❤
Totally agree with you, these young "Troopers are tormented by so many objectionable tourists. so many of them show no respect whatsoever.
I'm a Canadian / Brit dual national living in the UK, the Canadian consulate is actually called the Canadian High Commission as we're still in the commonwealth, or just Canada House.
For any Canadians living in the UK, they sell the Royal Canadian Legion poppies in there, might be late now for this year, but they sell them every year in the run up to Remerance Day.

There's a lovely gallery inside Canada House, they often do cultural Canadian events inside too.
Huge respect for sticking up for the blind veteran and showing respect!
John, thank you for once again, being the voice of decency and respect. The spammers are truly vultures circling around HG waiting for a rare or unusual moment to occur so they can swoop in and intrude on a private moment or record a mishap. They truly don’t understand respect, even when you tried to explain. You tried. 😢
Otherwise this was a perfectly wonderful video today with an amazing walk through Piccadilly, Trafalgar Square, and our beloved Horse Guards.
Have a lovely Remembrance Day.

Afternoon John that fountain with the horses in Piccadilly Circus as well as some of the other buildings on your route to Horse Guards are spectacular

John im glad you told off them stupid spammers. You don't disrespect a blind guy like give the guy some space. They need to stop wish I was their I would let them film what I have to say to them. Yes you had every right to say something cause if you did not who would? 1:06:23
John that woman will not listen to you she does not care. She is like talking to a brick wall and she is very stupid. She would not like me im like you try to say what needs to be said..
@pamdame1743 Or you could just stand in front of them with a big hat on..preferably with large feathers on it
When all else fails, throw in the race card. If you can''t respect yourself, you won't respect others. Wear a Poppy, your free to record for a reason. Never pass on an educated moment! LEST WE FORGET"
The trooper seemed to be listening to your discussion with spammer, even the horse’s ears were twitching.
Hello John: I am an American Veteran living in the USA, I love your videos of the Horse Guards and learning about their service. They are very highly trained soldiers. I don't think the tourists realize that. Your videos show apart of what they do. I used to live and work in England for about 2 years awhile ago. I loved it, loved all the history. Keep up the great work you do.
Hi John, Oh my word why do they always bring up the race card. Good for you John for standing up to those stupid scammers.
Thank you have a great evening
The race card worked in the US but it’s getting very old.
Always the race card comes out must have a bloody big chip on their shoulders ❤
Ignorant people have no response to intelligent speech, so they resort to the "race card". Morons!
Thank you John for the wonderful tour 🤗 the first time I've seen the markets they all look so clean.
Loved the walk this morning. Yes, He's Alive! ❤🙏🏻 The sights are so amazing. Thanks, John.
As a loyal 🇺🇸 watcher of your videos, I appreciate when you walk us on different streets. I love being virtually in London with you. Cheers! 😍 🙏🏽
“Like a bunch of Oompa Loompas”. 😂😂😂 Loved that, even though I choked on my juice. 😊🇨🇦❤️🇬🇧
Hello John, I noticed that the trooper is standing in a safer position in the tunnel. At least his back is protected today as he had the wall to his back. It made a nice change to walk to Horse Guard’s from that direction. Keep up your splendid videos. Have a wonderful weekend. 🇬🇧
It always worries me when Troopers stand in the tunnel with their backs exposed!! They are too vulnerable!!?
Go John Huge respect to you, for calling the spammers out, and standing your ground, with trying to explain to them in a polite manner, they are disrespectful.
Well done John spot on as ever. This is a time of maximum respect to all our armed services. We shall remember them.❤
Good job John for stand up to the blind man and the guard. Talking to people like the spammers. You will never get anywhere with them. Wish you a very nice rememberies day.. From a former U.S army Vet. Take care.😊😊
Thank you, John, for saying something ❤
Thank you for this beautiful video and sharing your beautiful country with us. I honor all service men and women serving and those that have given their lives protecting.❤ my dad served 25 years thank you also for saying something to the spammers for disrepect..
Thank you, John. The lack of decorum and respect is beyond me. Manners seem to lacking all over the world. I love and appreciate your channel and you.
I live in the US and really enjoy tour videos and have learned alot about the Kings Guards. Thank you. Plus love how you say something from disrespectful tourists no matter where they are from!
Thank you, John for your integrity. They deserve to be exposed, especially disrespect ing the veteran.
Thank you for saying something to the spammers for all of us that would like to say something ourselves. Bravo to the troopers being so kind to the blind gentleman. Also, thank you for the different walk to Horse Guard's this morning. Cheers from California.
Hello everyone )) Great to have a different route to Horse Guards. Stunning horses as always !! I'm glad you called out the disrespectful lady (i use that term loosely) spammer... Unfortunately you cant reason with some people, it's like trying to play chess with a pigeon !!!
They were losing so they played the eternal "RACIST" card. I am so sick of that. In my opinion, the ones who play that card are the "RACISTS".
Oh my gosh. How thick are some people....:we're not in the box"! What? I can only sit here and shake my head. I'm so glad you confronted them on their abysmal behavior. They just need to be gone, in my opinion. Your "live streams" are delightful, John. Thanks for all of your efforts. Have an amazing Remembrance Day; our Veteran's Day is on Monday. We will be getting our poppies in memory of those who served. Love and Blessings from Missouri, USA.
Lest We Forget!
@@juliepalfree15 Amen Julie!
What I did not like about those Spammers were when the blind man bless his heart turned and walked away they turned their cameras in his direction as if to follow him until he went out of sight. Respect to the Boxman who let him pet the the horse 🐎 Well done Trooper Zambesee and well done Trooper. You done very well John to tell those spammers off for disrespecting the Blind man.
They are disgusting ,need to be banned.
That is so true@@sued616
Well done John, massive respect to you for calling them out, my blood was boiling watching what they were doing. Completely ignorant. 👏👍
Hello John, great video. Enjoyed the tour, love seeing the sights through your eyes. Thank you for confronting the spammers. I appreciate your dedication to keeping horse guards respectful for the troopers.
I absolutely love the way you show respect and stand up for the troopers. Everyone should take a page out of your book. I love watching your videos because you are respectful. Thank you for sharing your time
So few people know the correct way to wear their poppy … the veteran trooper will confirm what I’m saying. It can be on any side but position the leaf at 11.00hrs to represent the 11th hour , of the 11th day, of the 11th month when the guns fell silent. 🌺🌺🌺
You are correct ❤
I never knew that
62 years and nobody ever told me. Amazing. Wouldn't mind but I'm from a military family. 😒
To true I’ve even seen people on the B.B, C , with the new make upside down
Yes that is what I have always believed too
I'm in Canada. We normally wear the poppy on our left side, over our heart. 🇨🇦
Thank you for the new opening location! Had never seen Piccadilly Circus area. Beautiful walk area. Christmas Market area cute. Interesting area, from the Canadian Consulate to the fountains, to Parliamentary Square. The spammers are mindlessly standing, silently filming, hoping for the one event they can exploit. Your approach was excellent. Well done! I suspect they will post, no matter. Spammers are like vultures. The woman clearly has no clue of respect and common decency. The woman doesn’t have a clue and wants to argue. She’s actually unclear on pre-filming and live stream. You handled with respect and dignity.
Canadian High Commission, not consulate. Many Brits don’t understand the difference, unfortunately.
@ I’m in American and I don’t understand the difference but thank you for the clarification. Good to know.
@@ginatulipana5145 Canada and the UK are Commonwealth countries. The embassies (consulates are lesser field offices) of Commonwealth countries that are located in the capital cities of other Commonwealth countries are called High Commissions. So Canada has a High Commission in Canberra but an Embassy in Paris. That’s trivia I wouldn’t expect an American to know offhand, but Brits should understand the Commonwealth (and so often don’t).
@@Bandomeme thank you for the information.
@@ginatulipana5145 you’re very welcome!
You should stand in front of the Spammer’s and talk loud 😂😂
Good morning John. Beautiful Saturday. We in Michigan still honor the Military with the red poppies.
It’s my birthday today, I am now officially a pensioner. I love watching your videos x
Happy birthday Wendy , have a wonderful day 😁
Happy Birthday, Wendy! Have a lovely weekend!
💖🧁✨
Your London City Walks friend from Royal Oak, Michigan USA
♥️🇺🇸🐴🐴🇬🇧♥️
Happy birthday sweety ❤
Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday and welcome to the club ❤
Great surprise opener . Enjoyed the detour. Troopers spot on today. Thank you as always, John , for being the respectful person you are. Appreciative of your respect for the retired officer being given the chance to interact with the horse. The Horse sensed the man's respect and seemed to equally enjoy the encounter. You are to be commended with addressing the rude spammer. You spoke truth to her and confronted her disrespect in a respectful manner. Kudos , John.
What a lovely Irish lady! Thank you for your service and have a blessed day tomorrow❤️
Love seeing Canadian flag, where ever it may be flying. Thanks John.
Again John you are correct, they are despicable, thank you for confronting the spammers, the term oompah loompa’s, 😅 had me choking on my drink, No respect was given to the serving troopers, past or present.
Thank you again 😊
Good morning John! Remembering those who sacrificed, I remember when poppies were worn here in the US when I was a child. Thanks for venturing out on this day! Hope you are ok after reading title of this video! Thanks for your integrity!❤️from🇺🇸
I remember everyone wearing poppies in the US, when I was a child. I was born in 1950 so the war was fresh in the hearts of the country. I would like to see poppies in the US again.
Hi. I am a Canadian. We wear poppies. I am surprised that the US doesn’t anymore. 😢
They still do sell them. I know the vets sell them at certain places. We buy them every year. My kids are 18 and 21 and they buy one too now.
@@TracysavedbyChrist I will have to look for poppies. Thank you for the information.
@@Cherylgielowhi, I’m from the USA, I don’t recall seeing poppy’s being worn here in California? It would be nice to wear a poppy here at home. Unfortunately in today’s society I don’t believe Americans take the time to celebrate the military’s from around the world that sacrificed their life for peace. Thank you for your post.
I always wondered what Piccadilly Circus was like. Thanks for sharing.
Liking the new updated more understandable” don’t touch the horse” sign!
Totally agree - as an artist, the wonky perspective on the old sign was driving me absolutely bonkers! It's still not quite right, but it's much better.
Afternoon John time the spammers were once and for all banned they have no respect and no idea of the tradition or history that horse guards are about . Remembering the fallen tomorrow ❤ . I’m from a military family past and present so feel the spammers disrespect . Thank you John .
Oh give over, his self-reflection is completely lacking. He is himself, a spammer, just a talkaltive one. What bans them will also affect him. I'm also growing a little tired of John's own "rules" to what is respect.
God bless you John for speaking up to those Spammers. You are the epitome of respect 🌟🌟
Those spammers pouncing like that for a bit of footage they can splash all over social media. Glad you called them out John even though they're too blinkered to understand!
Thank you at last someone puts these scammers to SHAME they should be ashamed of themselves 😮
John I love your interaction with the scammers..you tell them how it is..and they don't like it!!! There is going to come a time when there are no "incidents" at Horse Guards for them to film..so hopefully they will go away!!! Thanks for all you do!!! ❤❤❤ xxxxxxx
@rianorman3526 people like that can't stand it when you call them out. When they get mad, it's a clear sign you've hit the nail on the head.
I respect and admire all the military but the Household Cavalry really still make me proud to be British and nowadays there are not many reasons to feel that. The spammers are typical of what not to be proud of they havnt a clue what their filming and I bet they know nothing about the history. Purely using them as a cash cow. I’m glad touching and getting too close is banned now or they would be taking film up the horses nostrils and posting that by now. What a contrast to your videos John you are an unashamed patriot and gentleman always interesting and frequently very witty and humorous with your observations. As well as not being afraid to call out disrespect to the Guards and Horses. Always a treat to watch your videos. Thankyou.
Well done John for outing those spammers, it's frustrating for us subscribers to watch and not be able to confront them ourselves, so well done to you. Perhaps you should have a quiet word to the police to have them check the spammers identity, and if they are in the UK legally, and don't have forged papers. Regards.
John we Lost a cousin in Vietnam. He's a Posthumous Medal of Honor Recipient.. #PvtDewayneTWilliams.. ❤️
May he rest in Everlasting Peace 🌺
For those who don't know, the Medal of Honor is the USA's highest military honor for extreme bravery under fire. Our thanks and respect to your cousin
@@helenbirch5719Thank you. He was brave. He prevented others from being killed. He was only 19. God bless you 🙏
@@helenbirch5719Thank you. God bless you 🙏
😢🤗
Thank you!! Much respect to you for calling them out on their * bs* ❤ Remember, you can start your day over at any time.
Good grief John, those women 🤦♀️ you really can’t fix stupid! They’re so rude and disrespectful 🤦♀️
John, the buildings in London are so beautiful. It will be great if you can show them in your videos every now and again. Thanks.❤ John, I have to edit and add this bit....it's funny hearing you moan or kinda regret walking through trafalgar square etc when you were stuck in the crowd with the music! 😂 I know I shouldn't be adding stuff in again...but after watching the trooper let the blind person touch the horse for quite a while, I'm moved by his kindness. Do you notice that he actually told the man accompanying the blind person to step outside the box whilst the blind man was touching the horse. This was to show the other tourists that he was only making an exception for the blind person who thanked him and the horse afterwards. This just warmed my heart tremendously. Most of the troopers are very kind to special needs people and should deserve lots of respect from everyone. ❤
I noticed that also Wendy. Spot on for the Trooper and the man's carer for respecting the Trooper's orders and not making a fuss.
@PaulaJoDavis 👍💖
Thanks for standing your ground, John, you are in the right. ✅️
I love seeing a different view on your walk today.
I just love your way of contronting people!
Hi John. What a beautiful, wonderful, touching moment between the ex-service man, the Trooper & Zambezee ❤🌺 And, you were right to call out the Spammers for their disrespect. They kept their cameras trained on the ex-service man as he left with his carer. Shame on them.
They are free to stand on the public highway and film BECAUSE of the service and sacrifice of our veterans. The Poppy is a symbol of our respect - LEST WE FORGET!
Oh, there you go again, John.....love you! Thankful you speak up - good or bad. Youre awesome!
Oh boy, talking to these two spammer ladies is like trying to nail jelly to a wall - pointless.
Are they really complaining of being filmed by you while they are filming others without any decency? 🙄 My English is not good enough to write what I think...😠
But I love it that you started the video at another place than usual. The architecture is so stunnig 😍
@@Sternchen35hhÖhmmm, I guess your manners are to good to write down what you're thinking.😁
Hi John like you l was really enjoying your video immensely
Then you confronted the spammers and proved what a caring and respectful person you are thank you for all your you do ❤
I really enjoyed seeing another part of London today. Have only been watching daily for a few weeks. Thank you for your daily watches and respect of the horses and troopers.
Thank you John for trying to help those spammers to understand respect, sadly they just don't want to know. Love the way the trooper was with the gentleman. If they were to watch your videos they would see how respect should be given, you are superb
😢those Rüde and respektlos morons,well done John for speaking your mind...
Greetings from Germany 🙏🏼
Thank you, John, for calling out the spammers. Well done and kudos to you. Great visit today. 👍
Thank you for showing Yeshua being praised by beautiful 🇬🇧 Africans. 🙏🏽 🎶 😍
Yeshua reigns supreme, no matter what!
Excellent stuff John. Well done once again
Get’em John! She has no ability to understand. Respect for a blind former serving soldier. Respect trumps civil rights that may or may not exist in another country.
1:02:30 good for you, John its about time they got told. There are some events that are so priceless, the pleasure that the ex blind soldier got was magical.
At least Zambezi head got in the way of the scammers camera.
Thank you trooper and Zambezi for your kindness to the gentleman.
Have a nice day John.
Thanks from the USA for a different look at London today. I would love for you to go through that way again, but slower. There were a couple of theatres that I wanted to have a closer look, and I would like to see the Christmas wares being sold, but you walked faster than I could look! Ha! I know you love the horses, but London is much more than just the changing of the guard. Please show more. ❤
Im the type of person that would stand in their view and block what they are trying to film. Having a disabled Aunty, I am well versed from the time I was 4years old, standing and blocking the view of disrespectful people. Ive never used words, just my body. My aunty has since passed away, but Ill never forget the faces of those who stood and stared and pointed at her for decades.
They sound like the chinese aunties who have no respect for anyone or anything.
Just heard you talking to a fellow countrywoman (of mine) John , I met you myself last year, the day before the Colonel’s Review to which we were both going! Funnily enough you said the same thing to me about not knowing where I was from if I hadn’t told you! 🤣 anyway God willing I’m off to London next June so perhaps I’ll get the chance to say hello again. I’m looking forward to the Remembrance parade (on TV) whilst I wear my 5 poppies (still counting), I buy one every time I see them, can’t pass the opportunity 😆. All the best, keep videoing 😊
Thank goodness you are prepared to stick your neck out, people like these always have to pull the old racist card because they know they are in the wrong. Great video 🙂
Lovely walk through London today! What an amazing place London is! I loved the music, too. Wonderful voices singing! ❤️
Ohmygoodness loved the tour today. I appreciate you suffering the crowds for us! Thank you from USA Las Vegas
Thanks for sharing a new area of London 🎉
good afternoon john its remembrance Sunday tomorrow of course oh dear good for you john also lovely horses
Hi John, it was nice to get away from the usual route today. Thank you
Loving your little unscheduled tour of London…my favorite sight so far are the Lions at Lord Nelson’s monument. I love how you share your knowledge…thank you!
Morning John. Thank you for the tour of London once again. I keep saying it, so many good memories.
🎉dear John, Tthank you for that lovely tour this morning... I haven't been back to London since I moved to Canada in 1981... I worked on Haymarket, when I got off work I headed to Trafalgar Square, past Canada House to the front of the National Gallery where I caught the number 24 bus home... you traced my daily route. Much changed since 1981, but still wonderful. I also get a nostalgic tweak whenever I see a Number 24 bus going by Horse Guards. Thank you for your tour today.
Beautiful architecture in London. Thanks for the tour……. and the music in the background is a bonus. 👏👏❤
Loved how when you arrived and said boo I think you said it to the horse but you were stood infront of the 2 spammers bet they thought you were saying it to them
Thanks John, for new route getting see different part of London ❤
Gorgeous Sefton he really is a beauty and lovely to see Monty after so long and only mentioned missing him the other day x
Good morning or afternoon for you! Like following you around. My last trip to London in May was visiting museums but next time hopefully will be able to just walk around and visit areas like you are showing. ❤
