These Beautiful Horse are getting Far better Treatment than The Guests ❤at the Spar in the Posh Hotel Across the Road 😂

[@BlueIsis433]

Thanks John for a closeup of the badge have been trying to figure out that badge for a couple of weeks, thought it looked like wings, now I know. 😀

[@Ronin4614]

G’day, John. The opening of the video was refreshing to see. So good to see these horses being looked after so well. I will add to the dialogue about the “awards, and patches” that they are big check marks for status and promotions. In the US Military, awards and decorations over the right side of the blouse are reserved for unit and foreign nation qualifications. Typically they are “President Unit Citations”, and any airborne (parachute) awards and qualifications.

[@JulieSims-ug8fi]

Great job helping the horses out

[@vinpepp]

These guys love their horses, i read one trooper who's mount was retired, travelled from Hyde Park to the horse sanctuary at his own expense, to walk his mount to his new field and retire him safely to his new home, and then travel back to Hyde park Barracks, now that is love.

[@lindadeller4881]

That's what I call love for his mount,and make sure he gets settled in ok.😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤😂❤

I am wondering how hot it was this day? They really wanted a drink, well the one was being silly and playful which I loved seeing so much

[@JulieSharman-r7y]

Loving that trooper watering the horses. Obviously loves the horses and always smiling even when getting soaked by the horses. Big respect to him.

[@katieciccoianni4415]

That Trooper is amazing and sure loves the horses!

[@GeorgeMyers-gx6qj]

Me, too!

[@sarahkragness7138]

At summer camp, when I was a teenager, and worked my 'off time' in the stable, washing down the horse always meant I got soaked too... then back to the cabin for a shower. 8-)

[@bonniehewes7128]

It makes a difference if a working horse compared to stationary horse. During a race, a horse can lose up to eight gallons of water - representing more than 10 per cent of its water reserves.

[@joraston]

These horses are so well cared for. I love the cheekiness of Tabor.

[@lindachandler5448]

Thank you so much John for speaking up when people are being disrespectful and rude! Bravo!!

[@teresathompson1114]

John shouldn't have to the police should be doing that .

[@suepieschke5120]

It's so nice when there aren't 500 people milling around. The horses seem so much calmer also. Love the "water fight" between Tabor and the Trooper❤❤

[@katieciccoianni4415]

I was laughing out loud watching the Trooper get drenched. The horse was having a great time playing in the water!

[@kathellison8084]

I think Tabor won that one 😋😋

[@marlenejones6266]

​@katieciccoianni4415 that was great fun to watch. Tabor was enjoying getting his trooper wet

[@faithhope310]

What a nice soldier give love and care to this beautiful creatures,

[@blueangel6pilot]

The two horses in this video are very friendly towards the tourists. They have a sense of humor as well.

[@faithhope310]

The tourist are very disrespectful, no kindness t the horse of the Guard

[@Andolf10001]

From what I can remember Spur = riding instructor Spur with spike wheel = Equitation instructor Wings = parachute trained Crossed Sabres = physical training instructor Drum = drummer Horseshoe = Farrier Bridle bit = saddle & Harness maker

[@maryholder3795]

Fascinating, what the various badges on the troopers right shoulder means.

[@marydiamond7906]

Thank you

[@littlewren5775]

Ty is that all now. watching first female farrier that's 1 serious course to finish not some 12 week job or 1yr hell no. Took years as metal work ,hoof trimming, dietary requirements and so much more, whe you see her with her badge she really committed to hourse guards ,probably 20years or more ,what we use to call a lifer.

[@littlewren5775]

Any troopers have more than 1 specialist or you can only choose 1.ty in advance ❤

[@Swanoaks]

Loved the horse smiling when soaking trooper with the water. That's a great sense of humor of a horse kind. :) lol. what a personality: It is also great to see the horses being looked after so well, especially in the heat you are experiencing there in London. Really enjoy your conversations with the Tourists. Good for you sorting out that lot of kids making life difficult for the Guard. Thank you John: Kiwi

[@mrs.c5471]

He was Flehmening, actually smelling the scent of the water, the other horse, the troopers skin oil. Stallions use this to smell a mare in heat and other stallions via the manure.

Love that trooper, what an absolute star. You can see the horses love him & definitely cheeky with the water 😂 great

[@fusspot57]

Remember last Summer during the very hot weather spell, there was footage of the HC horses bobbing for apples in the stable yard water trough. Lovely!

[@sarahbanks9510]

I would love to have seen that video!❤

[@ronniekilroy367]

They deserve to be spoiled ❤

[@GillPorter-nc6jd]

That is what you call love, care and attention from the human trooper to his animal trooper...then are so well looked after. Total respect.

[@Avril164]

John thank you for catching these beautiful horses drinking. Tebar was loving it. ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@brendakirby-tx9vg]

Tabor made me laugh when he splashed the trooper and laughed, really beautiful horses, thank you John for the great video.

[@brendaflower7790]

Challenge anyone to claim that horses don't have a sense of humour.😂❤

[@fallionwater117]

He was willing to share and then gave a good grin!! 😂

[@littlebigkicker]

They dololz

[@mariahoulihan9483]

yep.. same with dogs. mine definitely did.

[@MerelyGifted]

I took a lot of (English) lessons on a wonderful little Crabbet Arabian who had a fantastic sense of humor. One day, as I was squatting to put the girth thru the standing martingale loop, he gave me an odd look, then quite firmly and deliberately pushed me over with his beautiful little pint pot nosie, and I went right down onto my bum. He gave me another odd look, one I couldn't but interpret as the amused satisfaction of a prank well done. I quickly, anxiously scanned his stall for the pile of poop I had earlier noticed, and to my relief, it was in a far corner. He saw me looking for it, and looked even more amused. I hauled myself back up and brushed away the sawdust, petted him, and told him he is A Very Clever And Very Good Boy. ETA: He also V much enjoyed sticking his head in the water trough up to his eyeballs (had to clean my bridle a lot in the Summer), and blow bubbles.

[@gelseydelpercio9606]

Totally agree 👍🏻

[@donnaharling7653]

It is so nice to see, what good care the horses get , when it’s hot .

[@shirleyfisher8313]

Do guards ever get a drink or do with the occasional splash!!

[@dalehoward5416]

@@shirleyfisher8313 I was thinking the same thing. Those uniforms would get soo warm. Bet they would appreciate a cool drink too. 😊

[@suziedebolt6619]

These guards and horses deserve such respect and adoration. I’m American, I hope to go to London some day

[@susanhawkins3045]

[@Pagan6979-be6ct]

Trooper handsome "Iceman" on Tabor, really appreciate all the information about the badges the troopers have earned. Their families are so proud. After giving Tabor drink and getting drenched in the process, duty stablehand asks "you alright?" to Iceman....taking care of his colleague is so nice to hear. And taking the drinks to the Gatesman. Thanks for taking the time John. kiwi 😀

[@Baky_T]

Goodness sir, I love and appreciate your videos so much, they never fail to brighten my day ❤ And I really hope to run into you if I'm blessed to visit your beautiful country. Much love from a Croatian viewer in Germany 😊

[@in8hope617]

Good for you for saying something to the Spanish group leader. They were WAY too close and WAY too mouthy... LOVE the kid in the yellow shirt ...he was so proud to stand there and have a picture taken with the guard!!!! And the horse had a great time playing with the water..the guard picked up on that fact that the horse wanted to be cooled down too! LOVELY!!!

[@joyceroberts3886]

Those big beauties really did need their water, and playtime too. The one always seems to love having a good chaw on his bit. The troopers build up muscles carrying those water buckets, and it's great to see the energies between horse/trooper, just as much as between guard/horse.

[@paulinemegson8519]

Unless you’ve spent time hauling water in those tubs, it’s hard to understand how HEAVY water can be, particularly on a hot day. 😂

[@msfrred1st]

Back in the '60s, '70s and 80s my brothers volunteered for parachute training and got their badges. One of them volunteered for ski training in Norway and twice volunteered for the UN in , of all places, Beirut and Beirut was really a hotspot then. They all got badges and/or medals. Also got medals when they were in Northern Ireland during the troubles.

[@suedaniels4722]

So enjoyable to watch, thankyou. The trooper watering the horses has real spirit and kindness to the beautiful trooper horses. Thor and Tabor so magnificent.

All the T horses on duty , T.A. Talah , Tabor and Thor ! The T.Birds 😁. Next badge for the Trooper with the bucket , swimming badge 😂😂😂. Maybe the horse neighing in the stables was Luxembourg who was taken off earlier , he just realised he was missing all the fun 😋. A lovely fun video , happy horses , happy tourists , happy ( wet) Troopers , happy John 😀. Plus learning more about the badges , I knew the Riding Instructor spur , Physical Training Instructor , crossed swords , horse shoe Farrier , now the Wings Para Trained . Thanks to the Trooper in the tunnel for speaking to you and answering your question , good man , he was probably bored having to stand there . See you next time John , thank you xxx

[@52Royston]

What is interesting about these badges is that even the most qualified have to take their turn at guard duty.

[@RiverWoods111]

I was under the impression that these guards have to go through a rigid selection process and earn their way onto this job. I believe they are the Elite troopers. I think the ones who support the guards are also Elite troopers. I mean I am sure there is a long line of people wanting to work with horses. Not everyone I am sure, because some people are afraid of them.

[@j.ksmith7432]

Only the Troopers do Guard Duty at HG’s.

[@peggybegin8241]

Oh, the horses smile was so great, when he got his drink of water ❤😁

[@allano937]

The qualifacation on the troopers shoulder is " para wings". The airbourne parachute qualification.

[@TracysavedbyChrist]

Think this has to be my favorite video! Just good times and laughter. Even Tabor and his mischievous water works. 😂

[@BrokenPaddleAdventures]

Well done. Glad to see you corrected their behavior. Their "Instructor" isn't a very good leader. .

Hahahahaha, who got more water in them or on them, the Tabor or the Trooper...hahaha then the horse and his cheeky grin, like he's saying, "HA, got you!!!"... That' was awesome.

If you ever see a Mk 4 tank in white on the right shoulder it means that the trooper/soldier has been trained in tracked armoured vehicle and tanks by the Royal Tank Regiment. And in case you haven't figured it out "RockeApes" is the nickname for the RAF Regiment

Hello John from Australia - Thank you for your interesting insight into the guards patches am always interested in military history. Shame the teacher needed to be told he should have enough common sense to know his charges were being rude and disrespecting. I sometimes wonder how these people treat each other in their own country. What were the police doing NOT MUCH. The horses loved playing with the water and having a cool down love it when they "laugh" .

[@janisoconnor6881]

These guys sure love their horses. And the horses sure do trust them.

Hi jon. Another coffee break and Opening scenes of horses having a good old drink and soaking the Guard. I love little Guard 💂 Logan,he seems to know alot regarding the guards. Would be lovely if maybe you could ask him how he became so intrested in the Guards or maybe you could ask his mum. So the Guards can train to be Paras, well gold stars to that Trooper.✨️✨️ Yur infectious inuendos are 😂, you do brighten us all up. I think this is one of my favourite films watching the horses lol, they are so funny when putting their heads in the buckets. 🐴🐴 How people can say these horses are not looked after when u see the dedication these troopers give to look after them. That tawenism man.."oh they bite" 😂😂😂..urr yeah they do !! Good to see the Guards are given water as well,especially in this heat, the troopers in army uniform are doing a good job of looking after them. Unbelievable, the teacher waz actually standing with them when those kids were being idiots.!! Good on you for pulling them up. Have a lovely rest of the day and can't wait to see what you bring us all tomorrow.❤

Another great video, John. You have a great sense for where to be, and when to be there. Great presence @ 59:56 in pointing out just how ghastly those kids were behaving. I am a bit surprised that the police did not step in sooner. You can be sure that the guards do not miss when you step in for them. Well done, John.

[@Ari16492]

I love your vídeos, cause they are kind of educational for us. It teaches us how not to be an annoying tourist! The tourist lady was really impolite trying to touch the horse while the soldier was taking care of it.

John, I was wrong about a temp today. Never even reached 70F! Raining again... The trooper bringing the water reminds me of Trooper Ellis. He has that same walk, hard to describe, but it's one I've seen with some dog handlers too. I guess it's the fact that they can easily relate to the animal and the animal knows it. Thanks for sharing so much, you always make me laugh.
