This photo was in an album which has photos of my mother and her family in the 1920s & 30s. I haven't a clue what Alfredo was doing in there and Mum isn't around any more to ask!

Having arrived at about 11.10am with two smallish grandchildren, on the first train on which day-returns were valid, this is the view my camera got at full-stretch above my head! I should have remembered that you have to be there up to two hours before the ceremony starts, to get near the front.
The band in blue uniforms and with lancer style caps are from The Royal Yeomanry Regiment.
We retreated to the route to Wellington Barracks to which the Scots Guards band returned, so we saw at least some of the participants at close quarters.
