Lord Mayor's Show III

The new Lord Mayor - Mayor Bear(!) - trundled by in a golden carriage. Nice wheels!



A platoon of pikemen followed close behind. In days gone by there would have been up to four thousand of them!


The Household Cavalry Mounted Band and Escort look as splendid in real life as they do on the telly.



Only in England. They make a fine sight.



The parade wound its way past us, along St Paul's Churchyard, and down Ludgate.




There were many teddy bears in the parade, to honour....Mayor Bear.....and Sam snapped this chap atop one of the vehicles in the AA display.
