*Statement about an alleged Assault on Friday 27 December 2024* *_The Alleged Assault_* Many of you will have seen the video published yesterday in which I was approached by an irate fellow with a smart phone who made the following false accusations during the alleged Assault at Horse Guards: 1. Bullying; 2. That I am an undercover MOD ‘plant’ who was seconded to Horse Guards to “Sort out the RUclipsrs” (sic.). I can categorically deny both accusations as they are, quite frankly, laughable. *_The Video Evidence_* The video the alleged perpetrator uploaded was removed from RUclips last night after the comments section was flooded with criticism of his aggression. The alleged perpetrator also filed a Privacy Complaint with RUclips to have my video removed as he is clearly ashamed and embarrassed at his meltdown and the alleged assault. That video might be removed on Sunday… As many of you will have now seen the original video, this version has therefore removed the two seconds which featured the face of the complainant, thereby negating his Privacy Complaint. It is otherwise complete. Due to legal advice and the ongoing Metropolitan Police investigation, I will make no further reference to the alleged Assault in future videos.
Hi there, you are one in a million John you are always honest, authentic, professional, have values, don’t argue or take advantage of situations that is why everyone loves you and watches you and give positive comments daily, you rock
This is the uniqueness of your channel that no other channels have.Its so beautiful because you made us travel with you around Central London right from the comfort of our own bed.That is why I love to watch your videos and you were the reason why I became a fan of Horse Guards and the British Military as well.Keep safe in doing what you love,we will always love your channel LCW.
It's the green-eyed monster, John. Your channel is the best of all of the Palace, Horseguards etc. channels mainly thanks to your witty and knowledgeable commentaries. Don't change🥇🏆!
You know I remember a conversation you had aboit how certain people began to use mostly shorts and how much it jumped their numbers up so much so quickly. But you stated you weren't going to change your MO because you wanted something of quality and an amazing community on your channel. We'll slow and steady the numbers rose with a few bursts in numbers and here you are. Stayed true to yourself and what you began and developed loyal and caring fans.
Thanks for another video Jon, Horse Guards are amazing again.❤ And as for the "communications", I believe you can handle it, because we fans won't let you down.🤗
Hi John …as for a lot of folks…I’m with you all the way…he shoved his phone in your face talking rudely and followed you. You smartly didn’t film him as he assaulted you, but I’ll take your version over his any day! Keep us updated..ok? Always watching!! 😊
I need to say,as a Londoner and one who respects these Guards for who they are and what they stand for, i am constantly angered by the appalling absence of disrespect,courtesy ,and just plain good manners from the crowds that visit Horseguards.Not just tourists but British also.It is a blatant insult to our heritage and traditions.You,John, appear to be the only one who will defend our guards when you see those tourists mocking them.Thankyou.I don't go to London now, so your walks are enjoyable.
I agree. Many tourists are so disrespectful to , not only the Kings Guards and the rules, but to London's Customs. Because you are visiting doesn't mean you can do as you please. This entitled behavior is disgusting.
A RUclipsr posted a video, yesterday, of some looney tune in white fur hat prancing around in front of Guard in box...NO ONE ...not even the filmer who labeled the prancer as disrespectful, tried to stop the jackass
The things I like best about your channel is that it is narrated and there is more than just the guards, as you talk about other locations. Despite the number of people, they all seem respectful.
Just for the record I have seen and heard Buska verbally assault you in such a childish and rude manner! I left his channel a long while ago because I did not like what he was posting! Then when I had heard he posted the guard tearful when her family visited, and did it take it down when asked, I knew there were no second chances for him with me!😡😡
Good morning. Love your videos. I have to say that i really enjoy your walk through London. I especially love the architecture. Everything is magnificent, plus your comments add so much to people like me who don't live there. Thank you.. ❤
I enjoy watching your videos, I like your sense of humour and the respect you have for the Troopers, Horses and the M.O.D Police officers. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
First of all I would like to extend a HAPPY NEW YEAR to you, JOHN, and also to COLIN, CHARLIE, BARRY, MANNY and all of HCAV and KTRHA. I'm not privy to their channels (if they have one) so would like them to know they are appreciated and thought about. Great to see that you are moving forward concerning the "alleged assault" by that person. It is bang out of order and should be investigated for the good of not only you, but the public in general. Praying you have a restful, peaceful holiday. Enjoy your time away from the chaos that is central London, at least for a few days. Much love and blessings from Missouri, USA.
I stopped and blocked Buska and others after I found your videos John. Buska and the others should feel shame for their own actions and verbal assaults! Have a great trip and a wonderful start to the New Year.
John, keep up the good work you do for us at Horse Guards. Your knowledge and respect for HCav is appreciated. You know who is obviously jealous of the facts you are able to pass on to us your viewers. Have a great vacation. Happy, Healthy New Year. 🎉🥂
Sorry John l forgot to ask What’s the Salary for an undercover MOD police or Spy for Horseguards ? You may get an office in Thames House😮 the views must be breathtaking from there. Your Brilliant Channel covers everything The Guards, Their Beautiful Horses In fact every aspect of Londons Architecture, Keep up your Brilliant Channel. Have a Wonderful (moron Free Break )
It’s been many years ago since I visited London. At that time it was not sooooo crowded!! I’m glad to stay here and watch your great video’s instead 😅 Thank you, John!
I must admit, the tourists impressed me with their “human tunnel” created for the Gatesman making his rounds. As a group, they don’t normally display such intelligence!! 🤣🤣. Thank you John for giving me such appreciation of my solitude on my farm!!
Good morning John 😊. I enjoy your videos. Your funny and educational narration. You are a classy and respectful man. I only watch your videos because you dont post flashing arrows. Crazy description headlines. Spammers should be ashamed. I believe the Guards respect you and thats their issue. They stand in front of the Guards their entire shifts . You are the best John. We support you ❤
Hi from USA ❤ John, I love the long videos, I would watch if they were 8 hours long, that’s how much I love your videos, I go back and watch previous videos everyday, some I have watched multiple times, like of Ormonde and some of my favorites. Your commentary is the Best, please don’t change a thing, we all love your channel just the way you are, you’re amazing and such a gentleman. I wld love to meet you, but if i ever could, I still couldn’t cause I don’t fly, I’m afraid. God Bless you John and hope you had a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year ❤ remember, we love you just the way you are and please keep the long videos or make them longer lol I’d love that ❤ ❤❤❤
The longer length videos are ones I enjoy short ones are enjoyable however not ones I would chose to watch on a regular basis. Enjoy your getaway John it is well earned.
Wowser, so many ppl John !!! Do be careful moving through the traffic !! You have soo much support amongst us so do what you have to do, we have your back. Hope you've had a great Christmas and wishing you health, wealth, peace and happiness for the New Year 😊 🎉🍾🇬🇧💪👏👍🥰
Saying you're a bully,, he must have been looking in a mirror. Such trash shouldn't be allowed at horse guards. You're videos of horse guards are the nicest on you tube.
Sorry to hear this. I enjoy your banter as you do your walks. You are always curtious and mindful of others. You handle yourself well. Pleased keep youtubing. ❤
Watching this video again makes me twice as happy that I unsubbed and blocked Buska from my feed. John, he is so immature and jealous of your popularity that it has turned him into a man-baby. He cannot compete with someone who is highly educated, speaks the King's English impeccably and is very, very knowledgeable of the London architecture and the Horse Guards itself. This is why your channel is #1 on my list. Keep up the excellent work and stay safe out there. London is full of weirdos it seems. ❤❤
I’ve noticed it too, he films a lot “politically charged” things happening around London, I’m guessing it’s starting to wear him down a bit. The fact that videoing these happenings is what he does, it’s not like he can shut off RUclips and TikTok like the rest of us when it gets too much. But a constant diet of things you have no control over isn’t healthy and without a constructive outlet for all the negative energy, things get wobbly. I’m hoping whatever is going on with him behind the scenes he has people around him to keep him from going over the high side. He may not be the most polished or urbane or have a secondary education or spent any time in the corporate world and have the diplomatic skills you pick up to survive and succeed, he’s not a bad guy. He’s like a big kid sometimes and his laugh is genuinely a joy, so I hope whatever it is he finds peace and resolution, (just not at anyone’s expense).😿
To Horse Guards, the HCAV Regiments, wish you all a Happy New Year 🎊🎉🎊 and thank you for your service at Horse Guard for 2024. Hope 2025 is a happy and healthy year for you all and your families. Take care and all the best.
Why does Buska hate you? Jealousy I’d say. My daughter spoke to him more than a year ago, hoping it was you as she knew I followed you & loved your channel. She told me & said he really hated you. I thought she had to be wrong but no, seems not. Watch your back with him John. Wishing you a wonderful 2025, have a safe & happy New Year!!
Of course he’s Ashamed (Or so he claims ) Hopefully he will be banned from Horseguards for his Appalling Behaviour . He has lost his cool on many occasions in front of children and tourists . Your video can only prove that he was the Aggressor . Again.
Well we all saw briefly the face of the person who assaulted you and we heard him so you have plenty of witnesses my friend, what is wrong with people, when did everyone get so bloomin angry, you are a good man, your caring and lm sure your presence is appreciated by the guards and the police as well, great entertainment !!!!!!
You've done the only thing you could do John under difficult circumstances , going to MET police and seeking legal advice . Whatever a certain person decides to do now he has made a rod for his own back and has gained nothing by his ill considered actions . His accusations of " bullying " and you being " an undercover MOD spy " exist only in his sadly delusional imagination ! It is possible as I said yesterday he has some mental health issues and needs help , but that is not for any of us to say we cannot judge . In the meantime carry on being you and bringing us your respectful and knowledgeable videos on your walks and visits to Horse Guards . I hope this doesn't interfere with your planned break away for New Year which I'm sure you're looking forward to 😀 . On a lighter note , what rank as an undercover MOD officer have you chosen ? Now your cover has been broken a new disguise will be needed , as you speak some French maybe " Officer Crabtree " as in " Allo Allo " 😁. Not Helga please 😂😂😂. I hope the rest of the weekend is less stressful 🤗
Morning John, thank you for all you do. Have a lovely relaxing time away and have a Happy New Year. Glad you are not letting grumpy get away with what he did, all the best for the outcome, plus he proved to the MOD when you talk to him about the assault that he was harassing you. I really think he was trying to get you to hit him, you proved the better person. God Bless and take care. We appreciate you. 😊

Hi John! You handled yourself admirably during that confrontation and are managing the situation properly. It will be interesting to find out the results of the Metropolitan Police investigation. On a different note, I read somewhere that there's another Mission: Impossible film that is probably going into production. They need to cast you in it. Perhaps riding Ormonde to run down the bad guys. 😂 Keep up the great work! Wishing you all the best in the New Year, eh!
You have a calm demeanor and you never never raised your voice you try to help some people you just can't help them 😵💫💩 heads very much so they don't want help they're on drugs or alcohol but to spell it off in front of children and say filthy words and things like that you're not like that so I commend you for that you're always sweet and kind love you very much Linda from California❤
@@rsoubiea We go to bed at our usual time, however, we set an alarm so hubby can get up to do first-footing! He comes back in, we kiss and go back to bed! Poor guy hasn’t seen the ball drop in 33 years! 😁😁💕
Where is the update John? Did I miss it? Oh I found it. Thank you. We so enjoy your walks and your learned talks. I do worry about your safety. Take care and be vigilant. We’ll be watching for “Walks with John.” Have a beautiful 2025. Happy New Year from Texas! Cheers🎉
As much as I love watching this channel and is the only channel for this content that I watch and will continue to watch the games played by all content platform providers needs to stop very disrespectful to the military that this keeps going on and the fact that the police working there need to worry about these games going on when they are trying to protect all the public everyone needs to grow up and act respectful
John, Buska put something up on either Christmas Eve or Christmas morning. It was directed at you. Something is eating him inside and maybe others are are fuelling this. He is completely out of control speaking to you in that way, especially around children. His actions were outrageous. Have a wonderful break and a fantastic 2025 🎉🥂🍾
I always love your videos comments and interesting, information about everything for the people who have never been to London and you have something for everyone. They enjoy your walks around and you explaine a lot more than any of the spamers who just video nothing and you also have shown me how much things have changed. I was there 1975,-1986 Loved it and I'm loveing All the changes also I love to see the new eateries and some of the stores. Thank you for that. Sad to see some of the ones that have been closed 😮😢. Add more of the best choices that won't break the bank account for families on a budget for 2 or families of 3,4,5, etc. love you so much for that. Can you please show pairs when you can I loved pairs polyvu huma huma. Lol ❤❤ Loved London Best of all the people were so friendly and happy to talk to you about dinner and lunch. Breakfast,that way you can get great food and eat and drink for not having to blow all money for food that is the same as the fancy restaurant's but less $ . don't second think that you are not Great myself you are so sweet you are sooooooo much more than just video no talking. I'm 65 and getting younger just because of you darling. Linda from California thinks you're wonderful 👍 you are so sweet, sexy and you deserve an award from the king. Can't you just see that Sir John City Walks goose bumps ❤.🥳🥰
On a lighter note John, we viewers know what you look like, so you wouldn't get away with that undercover. We all know what you sound like. So the MoD declined your application fo the job. Hahaha 😂
It's easy to watch an hour long video of yours, whereas I struggle (I haven't tried that much) to watch another video of say 15 minutes from another channel.
I’ve unsubscribed Buska, on many occasions he’s used the f word, with small children in ear shot. There’s no need for bad language or confrontational behaviour. He needs to pay attention to his surroundings, just an idiot 😡😡😡
😮 my word! The amount of tourists are shocking to see today. John, you seem to manage your filming regardless. I do not go to crowded areas. I worked the Oaklahoma City Bombing. The chaos of huge numbers of people there. Marked me for life in crowds of more than 100 or so. God, speed on your vacation, and I'll see you in 2025. Texas fan and subscriber. 😊 Ps, we're having tornados in East Texas. I sent a link to my cousins. One responded that 2 of my 3 cousins are in London on vacation! Now John, I'll wonder if they'll show up when you video. Lol. No worries, those tornadoes are now water spouts in the Gulf.
John, I don’t think I could ever ever visit or move to London. The crowds are horrendous. 😮it’s not very fair to only allow the wealthy access to the fireworks.
Fans of the other channel really should look into his history, Like storming into a bookshop and harrassing the owner with a group of thugs. Being banned from speakers corner for assault and carrying a weapon. Etc etc
There's one good thing about the white line round the box ,( to keep folk from touching the horses ) :🐴: The extra space around the box gives everyone a better chance of getting a clear photo of the beautiful horses. 🇬🇧📷😊🎄🐴💙🇬🇧
I think that it is a little delicate for John to make something too. It's not his job... What would thinking the Stable-Trooper (military) about that. We don't know... at all. On millimeter off ~ ~ ~ 😱 Arghffft... Grrrr... ¥¿^￦¿
That’s done me with Buska he said you were a bully what is he SILLY MAN. he will be worse off because people won’t watch his videos, so he will be the looser he is jealous of your good fortune which you deserve. Don’t let him get away with this it’s not right he should do that to you. X❤
I think the trick is to avoid the peak times at most major tourist attractions in any of the big cities of the world. The problem with Horse Guards is that the horses are only in the boxes for 6 hours a day, starting at 10am which unfortunately coincides with the tourists already being on the streets to visit the various sites. The crush is further compounded by Horse Guards being such a central city site (between Houses of Parliament and Trafalgar Square) and by the crowds who gather around Buckingham Palace for the daily changing of the guards ceremony then heading down The Mall or through St James Park, reaching Horse Guards and stopping to get photos there. I'd certainly try to visit it at 10am, hoping the numbers would be fewer at that time, especially since the crowds at Buckingham Palace are all still waiting there and not heading down towards Whitehall and, if it's changeover day for the two Cavalry regiments, it would be an hour before the two regiments changeover on the parade ground behind Horse Guards. I'd be much more interested in visiting the HCav museum at the back of the building as I suspect that most tourists don't even know it exists and they certainly are unlikely to know that there is a viewing window into the stables inside the museum.
@@Sandy-n4n agreed. I don't live anywhere near London so it would mean staying there and Ime not that rich! I worked there many years ago but now prefer being in a much smaller and quieter place
*Statement about an alleged Assault on Friday 27 December 2024*
*_The Alleged Assault_*
Many of you will have seen the video published yesterday in which I was approached by an irate fellow with a smart phone who made the following false accusations during the alleged Assault at Horse Guards:
1. Bullying;
2. That I am an undercover MOD ‘plant’ who was seconded to Horse Guards to “Sort out the RUclipsrs” (sic.).
I can categorically deny both accusations as they are, quite frankly, laughable.
*_The Video Evidence_*
The video the alleged perpetrator uploaded was removed from RUclips last night after the comments section was flooded with criticism of his aggression.
The alleged perpetrator also filed a Privacy Complaint with RUclips to have my video removed as he is clearly ashamed and embarrassed at his meltdown and the alleged assault. That video might be removed on Sunday…

Due to legal advice and the ongoing Metropolitan Police investigation, I will make no further reference to the alleged Assault in future videos.
Those people John, have no life… nothing you can or should do…
John, Chin up and press with vigor on! There is no copyright on stupid. Just keep doing your thing!
We,re with you your the best
The" alleged assailant "will be the biggest loser. I feel many will unsubscribe as I have done.
John you stood your ground. That guy is off his rocker
I know we don't see you all of the time but I have never seen you bully anyone,you are always a gentleman.
Hi there, you are one in a million John you are always honest, authentic, professional, have values, don’t argue or take advantage of situations that is why everyone loves you and watches you and give positive comments daily, you rock

John, I am a subscriber to your channel for the same reasons that 777heiress evoked.

I agree I’ve learned a lot about this area of London.
It's the green-eyed monster, John. Your channel is the best of all of the Palace, Horseguards etc. channels mainly thanks to your witty and knowledgeable commentaries. Don't change🥇🏆!

Some people shouldn't be allowed out. You always behave like a gentleman John, even when all those around you don't. 🙂 We're all with you.
John, we totally back you. Not your fault whatsoever. You are a perfect gentleman. Most other people would have retaliated.
Thanks!
That's very kind of you - thank you! ❤️❤️
I wish you every success and that you will be proved right in all respects and that the person in question will be held accountable
I need to say,as a Londoner and one who respects these Guards for who they are and what they stand for, i am constantly angered by the appalling absence of disrespect,courtesy ,and just plain good manners from the crowds that visit Horseguards.Not just tourists but British also.It is a blatant insult to our heritage and traditions.You,John, appear to be the only one who will defend our guards when you see those tourists mocking them.Thankyou.I don't go to London now, so your walks are enjoyable.

It's good to see the new signs and white box lines working. The horses are so much calmer now that they aren't being crowded and poked at!
John, keep up the good work you do for us at Horse Guards. Your knowledge and respect for HCav is appreciated. You know who is obviously jealous of the facts you are able to pass on to us your viewers.
Have a great vacation. Happy, Healthy New Year. 🎉🥂
The short videos are ok, but I much prefer the longer 30-60 minute vdeos.. Why I enjoy yours John, one of the reasons.
i agree ..the 30 sec short videos do not show everything in context ..
Morning all its 2.10 am here in Australia and l have this video to watch❤
Good morning John! Happy to be out and about with you today! Can’t wait to see the beauties! ❤ from Florida
Sorry John l forgot to ask

You may get an office in Thames House😮 the views must be breathtaking from there.

Watching this video again makes me twice as happy that I unsubbed and blocked Buska from my feed. John, he is so immature and jealous of your popularity that it has turned him into a man-baby.

Buska has been very nervous and agressive for over a year or so. I hope there's no health problems, he needs help.
He has been aggressive for a lot longer.
I’ve noticed it too, he films a lot “politically charged” things happening around London, I’m guessing it’s starting to wear him down a bit. The fact that videoing these happenings is what he does, it’s not like he can shut off RUclips and TikTok like the rest of us when it gets too much.

To Horse Guards, the HCAV Regiments, wish you all a Happy New Year 🎊🎉🎊 and thank you for your service at Horse Guard for 2024.
Hope 2025 is a happy and healthy year for you all and your families. Take care and all the best.
A security question. How do the cops and guards prevent an armed attack on the horses, guards, police or public?
Those crowds would be too much for me!
I'm a Londoner and don't go there, I get grumpy around large crowds lol!
@ I understand- John would be filming us having meltdowns! 😁
Me too can’t stand crowds!
Thank you John. Whew!
So many folks who have never seen a horse unbelievable how long they stand and stare at horse 🐎 and 💂♀️!
We are all with you John.
I stopped following him along time ago because of his behaviour and your videos are always brilliant.
Keep up your great and interesting work 👏👏👏👏👏👍👍🇬🇧
John, I don’t think I could ever ever visit or move to London. The crowds are horrendous. 😮
I love seeing a slice of life in London. Happy New Year John, cheers
John, wanted to wish you a Happy New Year. Take care of yourself and look forward to your videos in 2025.
Glad you’re taking action…Buska needs investigation, he seems quite deranged in his actions on occasions 😞
Why does Buska hate you? Jealousy I’d say. My daughter spoke to him more than a year ago, hoping it was you as she knew I followed you & loved your channel. She told me & said he really hated you. I thought she had to be wrong but no, seems not. Watch your back with him John. Wishing you a wonderful 2025, have a safe & happy New Year!!
Of course he’s Ashamed
(Or so he claims )
Hopefully he will be banned from Horseguards for his Appalling Behaviour .
He has lost his cool on many occasions in front of children and tourists .
Your video can only prove that he was the Aggressor . Again.
Well we all saw briefly the face of the person who assaulted you and we heard him so you have plenty of witnesses my friend, what is wrong with people, when did everyone get so bloomin angry, you are a good man, your caring and lm sure your presence is appreciated by the guards and the police as well, great entertainment !!!!!!
This is the first time I have seen the glorious London fog😮😂❤
I don't leave my house NYE! I'll probably be asleep before midnight, but I'll be up and at the beach to watch the sunrise on a new year!
Sounds rather romantic! 🌅
Perfection! 🌞🎉
You've done the only thing you could do John under difficult circumstances , going to MET police and seeking legal advice . Whatever a certain person decides to do now he has made a rod for his own back and has gained nothing by his ill considered actions . His accusations of " bullying " and you being " an undercover MOD spy " exist only in his sadly delusional imagination ! It is possible as I said yesterday he has some mental health issues and needs help , but that is not for any of us to say we cannot judge . In the meantime carry on being you and bringing us your respectful and knowledgeable videos on your walks and visits to Horse Guards . I hope this doesn't interfere with your planned break away for New Year which I'm sure you're looking forward to 😀 .
On a lighter note , what rank as an undercover MOD officer have you chosen ? Now your cover has been broken a new disguise will be needed , as you speak some French maybe " Officer Crabtree " as in " Allo Allo " 😁. Not Helga please 😂😂😂. I hope the rest of the weekend is less stressful 🤗
Area Commander, but hoping to progress to Commissioner 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂@@LondonCityWalks
Morning John, thank you for all you do. Have a lovely relaxing time away and have a Happy New Year. Glad you are not letting grumpy get away with what he did, all the best for the outcome, plus he proved to the MOD when you talk to him about the assault that he was harassing you. I really think he was trying to get you to hit him, you proved the better person. God Bless and take care. We appreciate you. 😊
Allô John from Québec 👋 Have a good day and stay safe

Hi John! You handled yourself admirably during that confrontation and are managing the situation properly. It will be interesting to find out the results of the Metropolitan Police investigation. On a different note, I read somewhere that there's another Mission: Impossible film that is probably going into production. They need to cast you in it. Perhaps riding Ormonde to run down the bad guys. 😂 Keep up the great work! Wishing you all the best in the New Year, eh!
You have a calm demeanor and you never never raised your voice you try to help some people you just can't help them 😵💫💩 heads very much so they don't want help they're on drugs or alcohol but to spell it off in front of children and say filthy words and things like that you're not like that so I commend you for that you're always sweet and kind love you very much Linda from California❤
I spend every New Years home, in my Jammie’s, eating some really nice snackies watching a couple great movies. Safe, sound and cozy.
So do I !! 👍
@@rsoubiea We go to bed at our usual time, however, we set an alarm so hubby can get up to do first-footing! He comes back in, we kiss and go back to bed! Poor guy hasn’t seen the ball drop in 33 years! 😁😁💕
Happy New Year John 🎉
The guard with the big smile❤
John…wishing you a Happy Healthy New Year with lots of love❤
One of the many reasons your channel is successful is because you are fab at what you do! ❤
Where is the update John? Did I miss it? Oh I found it. Thank you.
We so enjoy your walks and your learned talks.
I do worry about your safety. Take care and be vigilant.
We’ll be watching for “Walks with John.” Have a beautiful 2025.
Happy New Year from Texas! Cheers🎉
like the way you walk around get to see more of your city
It’s very early on an incredibly stormy Texas day. I think I prefer your weather today! 😊
I'm south of Houston and our weather looks like this.
As much as I love watching this channel and is the only channel for this content that I watch and will continue to watch the games played by all content platform providers needs to stop very disrespectful to the military that this keeps going on and the fact that the police working there need to worry about these games going on when they are trying to protect all the public everyone needs to grow up and act respectful
John, Buska put something up on either Christmas Eve or Christmas morning. It was directed at you. Something is eating him inside and maybe others are are fuelling this. He is completely out of control speaking to you in that way, especially around children. His actions were outrageous.
Have a wonderful break and a fantastic 2025 🎉🥂🍾
I always love your videos comments and interesting, information about everything for the people who have never been to London and you have something for everyone. They enjoy your walks around and you explaine a lot more than any of the spamers who just video nothing and you also have shown me how much things have changed. I was there 1975,-1986 Loved it and I'm loveing All the changes also I love to see the new eateries and some of the stores. Thank you for that. Sad to see some of the ones that have been closed 😮😢. Add more of the best choices that won't break the bank account for families on a budget for 2 or families of 3,4,5, etc. love you so much for that. Can you please show pairs when you can I loved pairs polyvu huma huma. Lol ❤❤ Loved London Best of all the people were so friendly and happy to talk to you about dinner and lunch. Breakfast,that way you can get great food and eat and drink for not having to blow all money for food that is the same as the fancy restaurant's but less $ . don't second think that you are not Great myself you are so sweet you are sooooooo much more than just video no talking. I'm 65 and getting younger just because of you darling. Linda from California thinks you're wonderful 👍 you are so sweet, sexy and you deserve an award from the king. Can't you just see that Sir John City Walks goose bumps ❤.🥳🥰
On a lighter note John, we viewers know what you look like, so you wouldn't get away with that undercover. We all know what you sound like. So the MoD declined your application fo the job. Hahaha 😂
😂😂😂
It's easy to watch an hour long video of yours, whereas I struggle (I haven't tried that much) to watch another video of say 15 minutes from another channel.
I’ve unsubscribed Buska, on many occasions he’s used the f word, with small children in ear shot. There’s no need for bad language or confrontational behaviour. He needs to pay attention to his surroundings, just an idiot 😡😡😡
😮 my word! The amount of tourists are shocking to see today. John, you seem to manage your filming regardless.
I do not go to crowded areas. I worked the Oaklahoma City Bombing.
The chaos of huge numbers of people there. Marked me for life in crowds of more than 100 or so.
God, speed on your vacation, and I'll see you in 2025.
Texas fan and subscriber. 😊
Ps, we're having tornados in East Texas. I sent a link to my cousins. One responded that 2 of my 3 cousins are in London on vacation! Now John, I'll wonder if they'll show up when you video. Lol. No worries, those tornadoes are now water spouts in the Gulf.
John, I don’t think I could ever ever visit or move to London. The crowds are horrendous. 😮it’s not very fair to only allow the wealthy access to the fireworks.
Looks horrendous John! Rather you than me!
Fans of the other channel really should look into his history,
Like storming into a bookshop and harrassing the owner with a group of thugs.
Being banned from speakers corner for assault and carrying a weapon.
Etc etc
Seeing all those people flocking about here, there and everywhere, I'm glad my Granddaughter is home from uni.
He needs to be banned from horse guards, at least for a period of time. He just won't let things go. So he needs some sort of punishment
There's one good
thing about the
white line round
the box ,( to keep
folk from touching
the horses ) :🐴:
The extra space
around the box gives
everyone a better
chance of getting
a clear photo of
the beautiful horses.
🇬🇧📷😊🎄🐴💙🇬🇧
Could you imagine what it would have been like without the boxes with this crowd.
Please John, can you help me with my OCD and straighten the signs please? 🤣🤣🤣
I always want to reach out and straighten the signs too. Bit difficult to do from Ct USA😊
I think that it is a little delicate for John to make something too. It's not his job... What would thinking the Stable-Trooper (military) about that. We don't know... at all.
On millimeter off ~ ~ ~ 😱 Arghffft... Grrrr... ¥¿^￦¿
That’s done me with Buska he said you were a bully what is he SILLY MAN. he will be worse off because people won’t watch his videos, so he will be the looser he is jealous of your good fortune which you deserve. Don’t let him get away with this it’s not right he should do that to you. X❤
Looking at all the people crowding around has made up my mind I will Never visit there. Absolutely ridiculous
Don't blame you 👍... I live in London but prefer to watch the videos in the comfort of my own home, much safer too!!
I think the trick is to avoid the peak times at most major tourist attractions in any of the big cities of the world. The problem with Horse Guards is that the horses are only in the boxes for 6 hours a day, starting at 10am which unfortunately coincides with the tourists already being on the streets to visit the various sites. The crush is further compounded by Horse Guards being such a central city site (between Houses of Parliament and Trafalgar Square) and by the crowds who gather around Buckingham Palace for the daily changing of the guards ceremony then heading down The Mall or through St James Park, reaching Horse Guards and stopping to get photos there.
I'd certainly try to visit it at 10am, hoping the numbers would be fewer at that time, especially since the crowds at Buckingham Palace are all still waiting there and not heading down towards Whitehall and, if it's changeover day for the two Cavalry regiments, it would be an hour before the two regiments changeover on the parade ground behind Horse Guards.
I'd be much more interested in visiting the HCav museum at the back of the building as I suspect that most tourists don't even know it exists and they certainly are unlikely to know that there is a viewing window into the stables inside the museum.
@@Sandy-n4n agreed. I don't live anywhere near London so it would mean staying there and Ime not that rich! I worked there many years ago but now prefer being in a much smaller and quieter place
@@helenhallwood3580 Don't blame you !!
I think doing some bite-sized highlight videos in addition to your longer videos is an excellent idea. I think you'll gain a lot of new subscribers.
