A remarkable man in todays age! One eye on His Majesty: one eye on the very attentive Page with the lads next move messaged and hidden in a glance, like a father figure and his swift attention to the next step on the agenda before Their Majesties can begin to think about it! Lt. Col. Mr. Thompson is, without doubt, as I said to begin with; quite remarkable in all that he gives of himself!!!
Brilliant video! Great to see these traditions still being upheld. Lovely to see so much of Jonny and in uniform too. What a bonus! Obviously keeping a close eye on the young page - nice. Maybe he was thinking of his own son at times. Anyway this has been a real treat.😃
@@iwillsaythisonlyonce Aw, thank you! So glad you enjoyed! Something we never thought we'd see again, Jonny in uniform beside the King on duty! But he is indispensable! 🏴🇬🇧😎
@@sueharvey6603 I'm on a roll Sue! 😄 Another short one for you with the gorgeous new photos. 💜 th-cam.com/video/76typ8a5Dpw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZRgO-ygVOLQodtZK
I'm from Edinburgh and though the video was good, it would have been nice to see a bit of the surrounding area and St Giles. Also a wee bit of info about those attending. The Lt Col always wears the kilt well.
@@annmcgranaghan2131 Have you seen this one? th-cam.com/video/-1RFigRYD68/w-d-xo.htmlsi=U8kv-a2lq7QsFFdK Includes a bit more of Edinburgh. Yes, he does wear it well! 🥰
@@elizabethghent194 If it's purely pipe music you're interested in, plenty of other youtube videos for you to watch and enjoy Elizabeth. BTW I'm a she not a they.
@@lovelyskull3483 sadly not. Banter is common in the forces and also sends a message where it's due. If you hold a rank you're supposed to lead by example for your juniors; extremely important in the forces IF you know anything about them.
@@Blackmafia943 Your initial comment was not "banter" it was rude and insulting. Lt.Col. Thompson is a fine figure of a man. The Army contains many big men, some in senior positions. It depends how fit you are and how quickly you can move, and we've seen evidence how fast Jonny moves and how long he stays on his feet. You can’t carry out his duties day after day if you're not a physically fit person. His mind is very sharp too. 👌

@@maida-vale Beautifully described! 👏👏👏
My thoughts exactly. Effortlessly done. He makes it look so easy
Dear Johnny Thompson your own children are blessed to have you as their father. From an 🇺🇸grandparent
Good on the young page supporting the king and good on Thompson for looking after him under his wing.
I love Johnny. It is sweet to see him watch over the young boy.
A rare but loyal man and one with integrity
Good to see Johnny
@@marionbong163 It's such a treat!
Johnny is missed tremendously!
@@marionbong163 But we've been treated to his presence a fair amount over the past month, so that's been great!

And normal service has been resumed, and a large hole filled. Ever on the alert and bringing class to every occasion. Loved it and the kilt!

You did a fine job! Had to rush out earlier. You remembered the music too! Thanks to youx
@@sueharvey6603 My pleasure, Sue, so happy you enjoyed! xx ❤ ❤ ❤
This video lifted my spirits!! Some things are just like they have always been!
@@HelenBurns-y8c Thank you! So glad you enjoyed! 🥰
Handsome as ever.
Thank you!
@@armchairguru1921 You are welcome! Thanks for watching! 🥰
Johnny Thompson, What Can You Say. ❤❤❤. Just A Wonderful Man's Man.😊😊😊.
Jhonny Thompson ❤😊🇵🇱
Maybe the major felt good to be back on home turf. The wardrobe manager for these trips must be a wizard-with a huge cast of supporting helpers
"Not my King". Uh, yes he is.
Ignore the idiots.
Yes he is my king too.

I wd have thought he was a career officer. He cd go to full colonel . If there is fighting, even general
They keep cutting into the video and the pipe music is all distorted. Unfortunate .

Is the lady in white Major Johnnys wife?
@@Tara-ex1wm No, Jonny isn't married. He separated 3 years ago. The lady in white is Belinda Kim, Deputy Private Secretary to Queen Camilla.
@@larhumba4233 thank you for your reply. So sad he got divorced!!!
RAF Policeman eat less pies and mars bars. You’re in uniform FGS.
@@Blackmafia943 And it still fits him! He's a naturally big man. Please be respectful in the comments. Jealous much?
@@larhumba4233 Jealous of what? 🤣
He has dignity, grace and courage. Sadly the same can’t be said for all.
