TROOPING IS STRANGLED

To day was the Trooping the Colour and the weather held. One of the icons of this great parade is the Garrison Sergeant Major, Billy Mott, and this is the new badge, he wears. Actually its an old badge restored and very smart it looks. Sadly no King's Troop as they have a few cases of Strangles and the Household Cavalry were terrified of catching it. Strangles makes a horse froth at the mouth amongst other things. As I froth every Monday morning I must have it too!! But don't worry, you can see the King's Troop at the British Military Tournament.
