Redcoats on Parade by onewing

Redcoats on Parade

We have been out with the walking group today and then for lunch.

After a few days of rain we did very well not to get wet. The clouds were rather black but the rain held off during our walk because the rain was out over the ocean.

I will post photos taken on our walk later in the week because at the moment I am posting photos taken at Tocal Homestead last Sunday.

Here you can see the Redcoats on parade, they look more like Dad's army but were interesting to watch. It got very noisy when they started firing their rifles.
A bit of a motley crew, alright, but delightful to see.

I guess those big rifles would make a lot of noise. Lovely capture of them all standing to attention.

Ha ha they do look rather a motley crew....willing & smart but not exactly confidence inspiring if they had to fight for your honour!

Great capture of the parade event.

Good shot- but for the spectators it could easily be a step back in time.

@peadar @julzmaioro @dide @robz @happysnaps @louannwarren @rontu @helenhall @merrelyn @seattlite @mittens @fishers @flowerfairyann @ludwigsdiana @craftymeg @carolmw @pcoulson @beryl @jacqbb @haskar @happypat @samae @pyrrhula @olivetreeann @golftragic @creativenature72 Thanks, sorry for the group reply again, but I am pretty busy at the moment. (No change there).

It was very loud when they started firing the rifles. I am not so sure I would like this bunch defending my country. As Peter said they were a rather motley crew.

@onewing Yep, that word 'motley' describes 'em perfectly.
