Was rather surprised to see one of the men in black sandals.
Its for the horses and the gun carriage
Xi Jinping isn't there (he's too scared to go anywhere due to Covid). Chinese vice president is there instead.
It's for the horses.

It's for the horses and carriages, on the corners to provide grip.

Never really appreciated the grandeur of our buildings. Simply amazing. I must go to London again, apart from Billingsgate fish market (did a training course with Morrisons there) 10 years ago, last time was when I was about 9-10.

Yeah, last time I went was 20-odd years ago - certainly before iPhone. It would be nice to visit all these places again knowing that you can look up more information about the history of your surroundings at any time.

I think I have seen more of London in these last few days than I have ever had before, on TV, film, pictures etc.
Miles upon miles of security and every phone being monitored probably makes it impossible for anyone other than a state actor.
