King Charles Queen Camilla State Visit to France Day 3 Bordeaux, with Equerry Lt.Col Jonny Thompson

Final and busiest day of the Tour, 22nd September 2023. The trip to Bordeaux was rather chaotic, as the French Police provided little media or crowd control, and probably were not expecting such large enthusiastic crowds. it was a scramble with all the live cameras and photographers. I didn't even include the visit to the Vineyard and Winery.
At the end of 3 days Their Majesties looked exhausted, I know I was just following the tour! However it was a hugely successful tour. The critics should remember the King goes where the Government and Foreign Office request him to.
Jonny did himself proud, and has become the King's closest Aide whom he can trust and rely on. We saw 2 Royal Regiment of Scotland Uniforms, his familiar 1A Ceremonial and 1A Mess Dress. I haven't even mentioned the shoes! Fingers crossed the King keeps Jonny for 2 more years as Equerry and we get to enjoy Royal watching with added interest and excitement. Korea has been invited for a State Visit in November.

Don’t think I saw this one, how remiss of me! Have seen stills from it though. The bearded guy in plain clothes often pops up in various ones; is he from the Met? Oh and of course lovely to see ‘our man’! That lovely smile (sigh)🤗

I really should learn how to make a playlist as Jonny is scattered all through my Skating & other Royal videos! That was such a chaotic day and I don't think Camilla was feeling well, but they soldiered through and looked exhausted by the time they got on the plane. Not Jonny as he scampered up the plane steps like a thoroughbred! Yes, the bearded guy is called Jack and from the Met Protection team. Never tire of seeing Jonny, and so easily spotable. I struggle to find today's Equerries unless it's the very tall one or Ollie.

@@larhumba4233 I smiled at the thoroughbred term. Just about sums him up!
