Thoughts from an active pensioner who is now somewhat past his Biblical "Use-by date"

This could only happen in Britain

I'm sure that this would never happen anywhere else in the World.
Two or three rows of ordinary, unarmed, policeman, all smiling, walking slowly down the Mall followed by a huge crowd. No pushing and shoving, no linked arms, no batons at he ready, just ordinary bobbies slowly walking ahead of the crowd.
Amongst the many pictures taken on Friday, this shows the British people, and of course the police, at their best.

  1. Well, if you were the one that burst through the police line, people might have to "tut" you.

    That would be embarrassing.

  2. I guess the ones in full riot gear were just out of camera shot then?
