      they did not guard her while she was there, and she inspected them
      he is Charles current equerry, he's our King's assistant, equerries come from the Military and each equerry
      changes every 3 years, he started when Charles was Prince of Wales

      Bygone Queens were even more regal, particularly Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth’s gran. Queen Mother was more regal. Queen Elizabeth was much simpler in every way, she was essentially a typical exemplar of war generation - frugal, reserved, no fuss, no nonsense. Duty first, feelings second. Never meant to become a monarch and proprietor of huge estates, she always wanted simple country life, but took all these royal duties and legacy as custodian. Tried to make her best.

      She and the troops have an unwritten agreement...She 'inspects' them quickly and exactly as required without bothering them. She knows they will be expert professionals and immaculately kitted out so she doesn't waste their time straining (when a dignitary is 'inspecting' you a trooper will tense up or 'strain', which is natural, and unhealthy). The mascot handler doesn't have to 'lock up' or 'strain'. He must stay relaxed and responsive to his charge. So she can take a moment with one of her favorite animals. I suspect any horse or pony involved in her duties, time allowing, she will personally check in on. The pony 'debris' is officially unseen...as long as she doesn't react it isn't there. (that probably made her day, I'm sure she laughed about it later). That's some fine D&C.

    I'm no royalist but I'm sitting here with a grin on my face loving the pageantry and respect shown. I find it ironic that Scotland lost her monarchy due to English oppression which created a 'United' Kingdom...but this monarch of the UK loved Scotland more than anything, was happiest there, and chose to end her days in Scotland. There is a divine beauty in that. I admire the Scottish so much, hearing a Scottish marching band of soldiers coming is both awe inspiring and, I would think if they were your foe, utterly terrifying. They certainly look utterly magnificent. Huge respect from this Sassenach.

      No. The Scottish King, James the First of England, Sixth of Scotland, took the throne of both countries when Queen Elizabeth 1 died without an heir. Scotland did not lose its monarchy it gained the throne of England.

      It was pony's military duty to take a royal dump during the ceremony.

    For years I have been fascinated by the Brits. I'm an American, we tend to do ceremony with a simple elegance, and pride. The Brits have the market cornered when it comes to pomp and pageantry. The pride displayed is unmistakable. Truly Beautiful..

      I don't necessarily think it is all "pomp and pageantry" (obviously some for tourist revenue). I think it is more to do with the fact we have centuries of history and tradition which would be lost to time if not for the military parades like this one. Everything our military wears and does has a meaning behind it. Take these guys for example, the kilt is a Scottish tradition dating back to the 16th century and the Scottish regiments wear them.

      I have been at American parades and watched the "simple elegance" of giant screen TV's with someone belting out America the Beautiful while jets fly 100 feet overhead spraying red white and blue smoke and 60,000 people wave banners or flags or paint their faces, or do all at the same time. The pride is undeniable, the simple elegance maybe not so much. It all seems more like a combination Budweiser/McDonalds/Coca-Cola Ad with lots of flags on everything.
