This was the first royal even I’ve been to. Tickets for Trooping the Colour sell out really fast, so we were lucky to get them last minute.
Of course it was all high security, so before you enter horse guard’s you go through a little heathrow style security checkpoint. Put the contents of your pockets into a little plastic baggie, put your belongings into a tray & walk through the arch. The police have a rummage through your bag. It’s always amusing when they get to my bag ( -> ) The police woman looked a bit baffled by all the pockets and compartments ^_^
Reminded me of the guy at Manila airport who had way too much fun going through my backpack.
The ceremony its self was flawless. It’s on BBC iPlayer
