Morning John
Good morning John it’s very hot here in perth Scotland today keep up the excellent work love your videos xx 💜
I can't find where I am able to change my bank details so I can send you enough for a cup of coffee
John totally enjoy the UK summer ☀️ 😅 it only lasts a few days.
Northumberland. 🔥 🥵 today.
I hate seeing stupid tourists making weird poses in front of the horse and guard.
For one the rude americans.
Italy is thinking banding them.
I agree they din,t realize how silly the poses are.
These videos aren’t for you, then!
And dumb hand signals!!!!
Disgusting as well as disrespectful behavior. These soldiers deserve respect!
Update on the horses
"Of the seven horses involved, two are back on duty and the other five are due to be sent to the countryside to convalesce as soon as their wounds are sufficiently healed to allow them to travel."
One soldier remains in hospital. Some of the others are recovering at home.❤
Thank you very much 👍 🐴 🌻
Thank you so much for this Information. Fingers crossed and praying that all will return to full health ❤
What happened to the grey/white one? Can't remember the name. Thanks.
@adeleozanne3427 Vida the grey is one of the horses making steady progress.. I can not find any record of which trooper is still in hospital or any diagnosis. So I think quite rightly they wish it remain private.
Thank you Mary, for the update on the troopers both humans and horses. Do hoping that they're all getting better. Love to you all Take care. Thank you for your service to the Country.
Thank you for your apology about the Star Spangled Banner. No offense taken. We know you would never be-disrespectful.
Oh John, I loved your chat with the old Coldstream guard, your humour makes these streams. I love how you call out stupid tourists, I love the little parodies you make up about them, I always have a chuckle when watching. Most days I watch you xxxx
Hear hear well done john to you
❤I agree with that comment John.... your humour and comments make your channel! 😊
Totally agree make my day listening to you john thankyou
I saw the guy who licked his hand then let horse lick. More worried about what he might be putting in horses mouth than the other way around!
Be fab if you could get an interview with ‘David Niven’… the old guard officer… he is lovely! 😊👍
Incredibly bad behavior...the older woman in black hears and sees the Gate Guard marching towards her, has no reaction to the Guard barely running into her, yelling at her and remains inches away completely unaware and self absorbed like she's watching a TV show as the Guard keeps going. How incredibly selfish and rude. Zombie tourons.
Never fails that some rude people just walk up for pictures anyway when the horse 🐴 is irritated. Please have SOME respect for the Guards and Horses.
the main rule is not to touch the reins. it's a simple rule but many seem that they can't grasp it
@@TheBogdanTV not following you, "not touch the hem"? Is that a typo?
The reigns
@@forbeswatson Hi ✋!
The R.E.I.N.S. 😊 😜
@@TheBogdanTV Hello !
The word is REINS... LOL
❤🐴
John, you truly do have a UNIQUE ABILITY. To be able to multitask in very challenging circumstances, the ability to film fantastic content all whilst including a continuous commentary of interest, knowledge and humour, I can only imagine how difficult this must be, indeed, the fact that there is other contributor of similar content that includes any dialogue whatsoever, indeed, speaks for itself!!
I loved the way you phrased that - thank you!
Good morning John, It amazes me how you don’t bump into people. Those crowds would drive me crazy. I’m sure the locals who walk to and from their place of business or work just love all the tourists (only joking). Do you think you could show us your face? I know your voice since I watch everyday and I would like to put a face with your voice. Totally enjoy your channel. Have a great weekend. 💕🇺🇸
John certainly does stand out, i really couldn't image watching anyone else.
What a fabulous conversation with the veteran guard. Lol when he waved goodbye I waved back 😅 what a great day today, thankyou 😊
He was magnificent!
So nice to hear your lively conversation with the retired? guard. He's spot on though I cannot imagine sending my hubby away to keep the spark ignited in my marriage. You've yet again brought a smile to my face, John. And what a joy to see him walk away!! 😊😂
Loved conversation with you both did not catch mens members clubs as love to read up about these places. Does anyone know please thankyou
My step father who died a year ago this month was a vert proud Coldstream guardsman and was stationed in Germany. He would have loved to chat with his fellow guardsman. ❤
That gatesman even stomps with an attitude😂😂😂
Yes John, a band of brothers, he did 17 years, and a state trumpeter and they just know, they have that affinity, lovely moment, you capture these moments that other channels don't John. Thank you.
I love your funny running comments. Makes me feel like I am standing next to you as you travel around. Thanks John
It is good to see a no nonsense gates man. Whitehall and Viper are very handsome horses. Thanks for a great video, John. You always make me laugh. Take care! 🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧
Beautiful police horse Ava, absolutely gorgeous and love her name 🥰
With a glorious white tail !
I have never seen such hordes of people. Makes me claustrophobic just thinking about trying to move in those groups!
Know what you mean!
Yep I would never travel in peak time , I went to London in January from Australia and it was off peak season but still busy in Westminster
Me too! Some times I have avert my eyes. Thank goodness John can tolerate it.
That's why I hate living in london! Too many migrants and tourists ruining it for us
It seems to be same everywhere nowadays. Amsterdam teems over with high/drunk English tourists.
Another glorious day!!! I agree the the very distinguished gentleman...your humour is on point!!! Every video has delightful fun moments..your comments on the silly tourists, the fashion critiques!!! It's your commentary in general that I enjoy, your passion and fascination with all things H. Cav is what I find so compelling!!! Thank you for bring this glorious place to life for everyone around the world!!! xxxxxxx
Truly grateful you got the name of that gorgeous Met officer's gray horse. Gray's are my favourite and Ava with the full white tail and face, gray body, suits her perfectly. Good job to Viper, for sticking until the end of shift as well.
Evening Jon.
What a fab close up of Big Ben, you forget how tall it is.
I love the way you chat along your walk,its like walking alongside of you lol.
What a lovely old guard to come and chat to you, and he knew you. See your genuine knowledge and passion towards Horse Guards is greatly appreciated from all.
I swear that box is haunted Jon, its always where most of the horses have meltdowns.
Im laughing at your laughing, its infectious 😂
We all wait with baited breath when you say the guard is moving you build it up so well that we are just begging for a shout 😂😂😂 x.
Thanks for the stroll round London again. I was watching with my son and, seeing Westminster Abbey brought back a memory from almost 50 years ago.
My two passions in life, apart from the obvious, are horses and history and when my eldest son was around 8 we went round Westminster Abbey. I was explaining to him who the various memorials were for, who the people were and just where and how they slotted into our history.
But whenever we found a quiet spot we were soon joined by a group of elderly American tourists and whenever we moved they did too. But I carried on with my history lesson and tried to ignore them.
Once we had finished they all gave me a round of applause and £1 each (around £10 in today’s money.). They told me I’d given them far more information than their tour guide had and they’d really enjoyed my “history lesson”. If I recall my windfall was frittered away on an ice cream each for my sons - at London prices!
I think the moral of the story is that I might have enjoyed being a tour guide - if it wasn’t for the damned tourists getting under my feet, baring in that mind we were tourists too.
If it were not for John I’d never see any of it.
Lovely story, thanks for sharing.
@@ivydickson7596 there was an addition to the story of that day. My youngest son was 3 at the time and my mother was hanging on tightly to his hand. But while dealing with a sneeze she briefly let go and in those few seconds my son disappeared.
We knew he couldn’t have found his way out of the royal crypt alone and a search party was quickly gathered. It didn’t take long before someone tapped me on my shoulder and pointed at a tomb which had 3 carved kneeling mourners on one side and 4 on the other. Only now there were 4 on both sides - one wearing more colourful and modern clothing than the others.
He’s in his 50s now and still as daft as a brush as we say in Yorkshire.
@elainebrooksbank5281, you probably made their day, and they went home happy people. Value for money for them.
You got to spend the money on ice cream, for your boy.
What a wonderful memory. And you obviously made their day. How beautiful. God bless. 🩷💚💜
Some of these poses by the tourists crack me up!
I totally agree, sometimes they annoy me lol. Why the peace sign from kids. Women who look like they are modelling for Vogue - and other types lol
Yes 😂😂😂
@@bernadettelanders7306eh, it’s harmless as long as they’re not rude gestures or hogging the photo spot when there’s a lot of people. We all do cringeworthy things.
@@bernadettelanders7306 oh my you just hit the nail on the head.
@@Kiki-readstotally agree with you. Not worth moaning about.
Very busy morning at horse guards. The ebb of tourists is never ending. Such a wonderful place to visit. Thank you John for bringing London to us. I really enjoy watching your video's and have learned so much from you. ❤
What a fabulous channel!I’ve very much enjoyed watching the Kings Guard videos and your commentary, humour and interesting information is just brilliant!
What a lovely chap you were speaking to from the Cold Stream Guards ❤
There were thousands of pay phone booths in America, too. But they didn’t look quite as iconic as yours! And we don’t have Dr. Who, just Superman! ;)
Or Austin Powers
Love your "I might be too old but could I have your number" -- made me laugh out loud!! Love your videos and commentaries!!
That is one thing I love about you Sir John ~ you are so full of respect xxxxx
John!! You do make me laugh with your wit, just love it. part 1 looked more calmer apart from that daft women 🙄 honestly, lovely sunshine John looking forward to part 2. Thank you John stay safe.❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧
Tourists take their photos to perfection because they know it's once in a lifetime to visit England and it's beauty
That's something I never really appreciated until starting this Channel as I see it all every day. Central London = the world's greatest open-air museum.
@@LondonCityWalksA museum! You have got that so right and it how most of these tourists seem to think of it, museum displays rather than real-time working military. Could account for some of the dumb behavior.
well done Viper you made it Huge thanks Johns for entertaining us today Great coverage as always A J
Agree completely, about the hot hats on babies. Makes no sense. Some are worried about ear infections, up to a certain age, but you can do that without a silly hat like that! Thank you, John, for sharing such a beautiful day with us!
The child probably chose the hat to wear, favorite hat. Kids don't think about how hot it will be, they just pack a tantrum when they are told "no not that one".
getting overheated can be a bigger danger for children than being too cold!!
@@maybarnard1088 Parents should stop that early. imho
I just love your walkabouts, Big Ben chiming, the bagpipes, all of it.🥰🇨🇦
It will be great to see Ormond on duty again and to see him keeping the idols at bay . It will also be good to see Arne back too . to do the job he dose best too
Thank you, John, for your AMAZING videos & narrative.❤
Morning John. Yes shame you missed your chance with the trumpeter. He was watching you during his conversation and at the end I thought he took a half step towards you as if he was going to say something. Even on film you can tell you are looking at a nice person through facial expressions and body language. Oh well next time. You asked previously what format of filming people prefer? I like the brief walk/tour around the streets and then off to meet horses. Cheers from NZ.
My little granddaughter is called Ava she will be pleased to know she has a police horse with the same name. Love your channel so relaxing thank you.
I have to say John that the Horse Ava is absolutely beautiful.
I loved how you said no one even knows why they're here! 🤣
I can reiterate what the old gentleman said ref time apart in a marriage. My ex ( late ) husband was in the Armoured side of the Royal Horse Artillery. When we resided in Germany we had 7 yrs of him going away regularly from anything upto 6 months at a time on routine exercises. When we returned to the UK he was around 24/7 except for the odd 24 hour duty. Many a time or day the words were " wish you would bugger off on exercise and give me a break " were uttered. Many marriages broke up because of it.
I'm a new subscriber in the past week, John! I live in downtown Los Angeles where patrols of police mounted on smallish horses were not an uncommon sight before 2020. Both horse AND foot patrols have disappeared.
A very warm to welcome to the Channel and our Community! ❤
As far as I can tell. The Horses and Guards are no longer a dignified service to His Majesty. They serve as prestigious guardsman, but "photo ops" to be made fun of by a significant number of tourists and punks. I suggest they've outlived their purpose. I'd shut the gates to the general public, start a tour system reservation program and never allow the others in again.
Just as well you don't know what you are talking about, we might be upset and insulted!!!
Dear John I love your sence of humour and your laugh,I love it,please keep up the great work lol moya xxxxx
So funny as the police horse went through, the Rider on Ava had to move that man with a backpack on out of the way as he didn't even hear her horse. They seem to be all wandering around aimlessly lol😉
Spécialiste …….. du merde !!!! Pas d’autres mots ? C’est égal avec les gens vulgaires ,que vous dénoncez !!!
I love watching you walking around London with you, John. I was talking to a friend who lived in England. She and her husband goes back to London periodically. She loves horse and had one, became allergic to her horse. Told her she would watching your videos.
Viper always looks like he’s carrying on a conversation with the tourist!!😂😂😂😂
Hello John, nice encounters in this first part! I can hear you have a lot of fun at Horseguards, with a favorite gatesman and surprisingly not too many tourists 😎
Love your commentaries , very informative and helpful, long may you continue 👍👍 Best wishes Alan 👍
The state trumpeter kept hold of his daughter's hand, keeping her safe - true love for his child.
Hello! I had written to you prior thanking you for narrating your videos. You have upped it by showing other areas that I really appreciate. I love the history there. I can't travel anymore (I'm from the USA) due to being disabled so this is absolutely fantastic seeing other sites like this video. And omg is it ever crowded there. Better you than me in navigating all those people lol. Just beautiful work. ☺🥰
Horse trying tell you, Ready for my close up, Mr John 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️
Totally addicted to your channel John. I don’t want to miss anything!
I love how you’ve been walking around to show the London Eye and Big Ben and Westminster Abbey and all the other good stuff as well as the Horse Guards. Thank you❤🇬🇧👋 from 🇺🇸 ooooh, bagpipes! Love!
John, keep up the great work, taking time out of your day, cold, hot, sunny or rain. Love your commentary on your walk around London, give us who for what ever reason unable to visit in person a tour of your wonderful country. Don’t worry about if you get horses name correct each time, like see ones who complain remember each individual horse and name. To me some look so similar I can’t tell who’s who. Can say Pegan is absolutely only one, because of her beautiful grayish face ❤️. Do watch couple others BUT absolutely yours every day, even if it’s an older one, can catch something forgotten about and get a giggle from it again or see something missed first time. ❤️🙏😀
Good afternoon John. Wow another new one. A lot of the new ones are all black. Getting hard to recognize them😊. Whitehall is having a nap. Very chill horse. I think I remember Viper being easy going especially with a name like that. 🤗😎. Oops I may have spoken too soon about Viper 😅
Fantastic video yet again John, love the witty commentary about the tourists ❤
John, a British Royal Horse Guards trumpeter, Peter Wilson a well-spoken and Inteligent young man, appeared on the American program, ☘"To Tell the Truth" ☘when the British took part in a program at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Air date was June 23rd, 1960. I thought you and other fans of your channel might enjoy viewing the program. Best wishes, always. I truly enjoy your informative videos! 💕
I commented to Buska that I hoped horse didn't catch any disease!!!!, if I was there, I would probably tell the 💂♀️ guard to check the horse once in stable, cleanse his mouth out....pretty sick dude...
Goodmorning London. Looks such a beautiful day and probably all the people that don't do the right thing, Thankyou for telling us the landmarks some of the buildings are beautiful you do such a fantastic job keep up the great work mate, from Faye Melbourne Australia,
It's such a shame to judge people. A guy came past my bungalow a couple of days ago. He didn't look the most well groomed; he had his bike weighed down by what seemed to be his worldly goods. He stopped, and we chatted what a charming man. If you wish to see nonsense and more nonsense, then the Eurovision contest is on tonight. Good luck and thank you for the channel x
I absolutely love your comments John, they are just brilliant. Thank you so much!!! ☺️
Your channel is my favorite. Thank you for the close-up of Big Ben 7:44
It has to be sooooo hot in that basically black uniform on top of that black full blast furnace. I’m sure the metal chest plate puts the topper on the candle. Too bad they couldn’t design a cool patch to wear.
John have a fantastic weekend and try and stay cool if at all possible.
God Bless and keep you and yours healthy, happy and safe. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Love all your videos. I never tire of them. 🏴
i like that you had a walk about London, whereas just being at horse guards made a nice change, hope to see more walks 😃
Ohh john you do so cheer me up.. 😅.. Like this sunday morning watching your video after hard night filling shelves at tesco, and feeling unwell,,, your video, your sense humour, You make me smile, thankyou... ❤
G’day, John. “Don’t touch the reins”; or someone’s pocket. Another great video,John; Thank You.
The right front police horses coat looks like the color of those beautiful copper candy kettles. So gorgeous in the bright sun.
God Bless 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Wouldn’t it be interesting if a few guards, one in the box and one in the arches, wore a bodycam to show people how they look to them! The police carry them already, but that’s different. Would be funny to see from the horses’ viewpoints, as well.
I really enjoy your walks and your commentary and the way you speak about the horseguards and how funny you are
Your voice is nice to listen to. Not annoying.
Love the walks to Horse Guards, I have a week of videos to catch on!
On another note, John, unlikely as it is that I will ever get to see London at 78 years old, what is in that museum that none of us will ever get to see. Would be interesting to see.
Lots of detail here: householdcavalry.co.uk/museum/
Thing with temperature is that it always feels hotter in a city, with all the reflective surfaces, and tarmac that absorbs heat and then re releases it, plus all the buildings that block breezes. London too is a humid place, situated as it is on a tidal river, and humid heat is much more uncomfortable. Then add in the sheer number of people, which really does make a difference and it’s gonna “feel” hotter than perhaps the temperature might suggest. All that without taking into consideration that people aren’t used to heat there.
Personally I just think it’s nuts creating a little “perfect” illusion……because it’s OBVIOUS it’s not real and I hate that they parade it in front of young people who think that “fake” is the way to go…..look at all those perfectly normal looking girls(even very young ones) at HorseGuards who smile perfectly normally right up till a camera is pointed their way, and THEN out come the fish lips and painfully contorted poses, just like an “influencer” because they think it looks GOOD and not silly and more than a little bit sad that they want to look like a contorted dead fish with too much makeup!!🤡🐟
Lol we shall agree to differ on the horses John😂’tis no biggie after all. Speaking of horses, does Whitehall have a front coronet or is it just the light? Ohhh that bay police horse was stunning!!! As ofc was pretty Ava 😁
Love Ava's snow white tail! Beautiful horse. Thanks for asking her name John.
Perhaps we all ought to join the PM in Chequers..we have paid for it after all...
Who said that's where he and his family are they have a family home
I agree John. They can see AND hear him coming but no,
they are rooted to the ground.
What is wrong with some of these people they like a deer in headlights just a foot and a half away from a g a u r d walking right at them he's of an official function and they just stand there and look at him but he's going to walk around them
I love watching these. My little niece watches and yells " make way and move " at the TV when tourists aren't being respectful lol
22:17 Viper.
23:47 no nonsense Gatesman trooper from yesterday. 😊
29:10 trooper who mum left a note in his b🎉oot very popular video and a state trumpeter. 😊
30:01 new horse Whitehall.
Love the retired Colestream Officer what a character.
Lots of interesting characters today John.
35:26 - I'm wondering who is next?
44:41 Ava the gray police horse. She is the one who wears the black ear covers. Can anyone tell me why?
The Ear covers are worn to help keep a horse consentrated from loud noises and intrusive insects, flies, wasps, bees, esp horse flies whilst on duty. The horse may be new to walking the streets and any sudden noise such as car horns will make it jump, some horses are more sensitive than others. So for the safety of the horse,rider and public it is best to wear the ear covers. These horses are trained to a very high level but nothing is like hitting the streets of London with all the different noises going on.. Hope this helps 😊
“Bumping into people after dark” !!!!! Naughty John!!!! 😂❤
Brilliant Video Today John, Yes I’ve Pressed The Button 👌👍👏👏👏👏
55:35 lol, “like duh” exactly like that 😂
Finally got to watch -love the videos that police horse was stunning
Thank you John, really enjoy watching and listening to your commentary. 😊
John, the child maybe sick leukemia or other illness. What a beautiful day you have. Ty for your service 💂 🐎 ✨️ 💖 🤗
Thank you for your vids. How i miss Britain, specifically London. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤
Regarding red telephone boxes. We've only ever had cream ones in Hull due to having our own phone company Kingston Communications since 1904. They're exactly the same as the red ones but painted cream. I have a full working one just a bit further up my Avenue. Great video John. 😊
Viper seemed very keen to come and give you an interview ! 😂
Afternoon John, so the Trooper on Viper is now my fav 💂♂️ Guard, aka "Iceman"...sooo handsome, think he has an Afghanistan medal?... and on one video from Buska today, titled, Rare Blues&Royals pose w/horses &Veteran Marines, COH was Dan....hansome too.... thank you again for the enjoyable video❤❤❤❤
John, you crack me up. I love your sense of humour 😂😂 and I enjoy watching your channel ❤
I can now recognise the horses thanks to you x
John you had me laughing through this great video. You are quite cheeky!! You know, I am from America and when I heard you say you weren’t into social media I was so happy. I, myself, at 51 have never had a cell phone, ever and social media accounts. I cannot get into it. UA-cam is my favorite place to go. Thnks for all the time you put into each video😊😊
Its great to see how professional our guys n gals in uniform are they really must get so frustrated at the tourist brain donors who get in the way bless them all,!,Love the video's sir nice to see what goes on there keep it up and those horses are total characters,!!,"bless them all"👍👍👍
London is just one gigantically long queue.
I find your humor is wonderful keep up the great work xo❤
I await the arrival of the King's Troop RHA, as the Gunners seem to have less patience and more attitude - then again being deafened and trying to drive two Horses at once would do that
Their boots are amazing 🤩
I think there to high in the back uf you see where they fit
As usual you are very funny! Love your video's! Love how you always stick up for the guards when they are being disrespected!
saw where the man put his finger in horses' mouth. disgusting. on a brighter note, horse Orion was filmed by buska sneezing and farting at the same time. 😅😅😅😅😅.
I watched that farting video multiple times, too funny! I hope they weren’t stinky ones, poor guard. Orion even flicked his tail to waft it around hahaha
@@Kiki-reads How the Trooper kept a straight face I don't know , he was struggling not to laugh 😁😁. Buska seems to have the knack of being in the right place at the right time his laugh is so infectious 😂😂😂. I recommend that video to anyone feeling a bit down if that doesn't cheer them up nothing will !
@@kathellison8084 another one I like (also from buska) is when the horse takes an unusually long pee. The guard was the recent Elizabeth Cup winner & I giggle at every subtle tilt of his head. You can practically hear him saying “Still? STILL? Good lord how much did you drink. STILL?!”
Woman just stands there .. does not move utter disrespect or stupid
Great that tourists from around the globe visit the UK. Getting the perfect photo is understandable, but these guards are at work, they have a duty and their work takes precedence over the perfect selfie. The guards need to be allowed to do their work without being impeded or disrespected.. Great video as ever. Love watching from Portugal. 🇬🇧🇵🇹
