    Than, goodness the guard-in-charge fixed the fellow;s coat before the inspection....that was close....I wish I had "live" TV as I was desperate for to do this myself. He obviously had just gotten off a horse and forgotten to untuck his coat. If it had not been done this poor guard would have been fined and perhaps suspended.

    "...Surely not walked all the way from Hyde Park Barracks, not in those boots,"
    Regular equestrian tall boots are anough of a pain to walk around in: there has to be enough space in back by the heel so we can keep our heels down while riding. That results in our own heels slopping up and down inside as we walk, which often causes us to get rubbed raw!
    It was a great blessing when the bootmakers finally began making field boots (the ones which lace in front, and only came in brown for ages) in black, so hunter - jumper show riders could wear 'em, and much more comfortably walk in them.

    • @joyceharland
      @joyceharland 10 месяцев назад +5

      Just a suggestion on boots rubbing heals raw, try taping sponge makeup pads to back foot. I use them with my ice skates.

      @@joyceharland Brilliant solution! 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
      The grippy, stick-on thingies shoe stores and shoemakers have for inside the heel area can be helpful, but only when the area's easily accessed, and on more closely-fitting footwear.

    This is normal, that the guard goes back under the arches, what the blues did was exceptional, and I've seen many 4 'o clock parades, when the gates are closed, they go straight inside. They have to remain there as long the gates are open. Hmmm now they do it different again?
