Getting very sick and tired of people getting so close to the horse and then pushing it's head away, if you don't want the horses head so close to you then YOU MOVE it is not up to the horse to move. Was nice to see the off duty Guards visit their mates all was nice and then the hoards descends on the horse and they pack like sardines all around the front of it. Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘❤❤❤❤
I was married to a Grenadier who did a tour at Bucking Palace. (not horse Guards) ... Funny story, He was armed/on duty one night. heavy rain.. A figure strolled out of the shadows in a cape with a hood up and he challenged. Two seconds later a gang of corgis came round the corner.. A little voice said "I am very sorry, its Elizabeth" ... "Ohh Ma'am I nearly shot you" ... Queen Elizabeth, "Its entirely my fault, I forgot to tell security I was walking the dogs. Thank you for being there"" ...What a lovely lady she was at all times.
This handsome trooper has so much charisma on a dark day he can lift up your spirits with that smile the glint in his eyes and the day filled with sunshine again 🫶. Always be your self JJ.
Did you see the nice lady who bowed to the guard in respect before taking the picture, and then bowed again after taking the picture? That warmed my heart.
She is clearly the off-duty guard (you can see her introducing her male companion to the mounted guard, who then points her out to the officer who comes to check on the horse) and knows the officer well.
Look for the horses behavior. Ears pinnrd back, mouthing their bit, stomping his/her feet and tossing their head are signs that they are stressed. Grabbing hold of the reigns is the same as grabbing the steering wheel of a car when someone else is driving, never come straight at a horse as this is their blind spot and can spook them, don;t let little children run around their legs and don't touch the area around their eyes. A horse either likes you or you make them nervous then they often times will bite or kick you.
I LOVE THIS GUARD TALKING TO HIS BUDDIES OF DUTY LOVE HIS SMILE REALLY PLEASENT LAD ALWAYS GOT CHEEKY SMILE LOV TO KNOW HIS NAME SAW HIS PARENTS A FEW TIMES HE LOOKS LIKE HIS DAD BUT MORE A LOOK OF MUM THEY LOOK DEAD PROUD SO THEY SHOULD BE THEY HAVE A LOVELY BOY DONT LET THESE IDIOTS GET YOU DOWN GOD BLESS LUV JOOL💋❤
Core I thought she was a very rude tourist giving cheek to the officer but after reading who was who and going through the video again it was a delight to see everyone interacting... the 1st Guard then the 2nd Guard and the off duty girl talking to the officer. Very cool to see guard with big smiles engaging with his mates after beckoning with his head for them to come on over 😊Hope they all had a great day.
Abdullah Thank you for sharing, I hope the commanders are reading these posts because this is the first time I have seen the police officers and Commanders make the people move back.
Don't stand too close to the horse if you don't want it to touch you. Common sense. Oh no not if you are a tourist who wants a Disney photo. This is not Disney and you have no business pushing the horse's face out the way. You are in their space. Have some respect please.
It's no a friggin petting zoo. These People should be teaching they're kids these are working soldiers and horses so they learn stuff while there.. in the military not just for entertainment .. it's no Disney land
Did she stick out her tongue to the soldier? Don't go in front of people. They were there first. Hand gestures so useless.Why wear a mask taking a photo.
They are not Amish. Amish people lead plain, simple, lives---they don't go jetting off to the UK on holidays. The family you are referring to are Hasidic Jews. There is a large community of Ashkenazi (mainly Hasidic) Jews in London, mainly centred in the Stamford Hill area, but most Hasidic communities originate in Eastern Europe.
