March Back to Waterloo Station after King Charles III Coronation - kilts swaying, red uniforms, in the rain!

One band after another, matching across the bridge. All wearing their uniforms. Subtitles tell you the band and the music. A great video of different bands, different marching songs. Great red uniforms. 

I find marching a challenge, never mind marching in step. Whilst playing an instrument! In the rain!

 My favourites were the Scottish bands towards the end, with their kilts.

Such a pity it was a rainy day. On the other hand, on a rainy day, it's good to have a band to cheer you up.

I read that Penny Mordaunt had two pairs of shoes, so that she could change out of her wet shoes once inside the abbey for the coronation.

Burns Night With Pipers In Harrow And Readings From Animation Using Burns Skull Cast

Problem
When and where to celebrate Burns night?

Answer
Anywhere, any time. Last night, Jan 25th, 2018, I saw two pipers wearing kilts playing outside the pub on Harrow on the Hill.

If you haven't been invited to a Burns Night, you can organize your own. Maybe this coming weekend. I went to a Burns Night last weekend. I am on a waiting list for another this weekend.

Did you see the animation made from a cast of Burns' skull? I thought it looked odd, with cheeks so red. Then I saw the portrait of Burns.

I remembered passing a pub with a Scottish name, Wee Bairn, meaning small child.
