As the tea salon came to a close and Knyaginya Dashkova retired to her private apartments to inspect her son's history lesson, "Count Shurshin" revealed himself to be some sort of rebel, now threatening the safety of both court and the Empress personally, shouting nonsense about Polish invasion, all whilst taking as many refreshments as possible!
Vitze-Kantzler was quick to call in guards, and the young Alexandra von Engelhardt under Grenadiers' protection was swiftly escorted out of the salon. The intruder was arrested and will await strict "investigation" soon.

The Royal Regiment of Horse Guards was a cavalry regiment of the British Army, part of the Household Cavalry.
The parade ground is open on the west side, where it faces Horse Guards Road and St. James's Park. It is flanked on the north by the Old Admiralty and the Admiralty Citadel, on the east by William Kent's Horse Guards – formerly the headquarters of the British Army.

In the Kaleem Zam'qnar lands the Guards more and more often encountered 2 or 3 man Blood Orcs scouting groups. Usually they eliminated them quickly. However their appearance caused anxiety. The orcs have not been seen here for over 100 years. At the Watchtower on far, far east of the Kaleem Zam'qnar lands we can see a drama. The group of redskins is much bigger than the previous ones. And the Guardian is all alone there...

This healthy looking yellow-bellied marmot was on guard near the summit of Mt Evans. A treat to watch these curious and cute critters, Rocky Mountains, CO
It's not by chance that the Meerkats are right near the entry to the open plains Western Plains Zoo at Dubbo in Central West New South Wales. They are certainly popular and fascinating to watch but an ongoing campaign by "Compare the Market" in Australia and overseas using them in comical sketches for advertising has lifted their profile immensely. As in their natural environment, there is always someone on duty watching for danger and ready to call out for a scramble to safety. I understand that this duty is rotated, how smart! They have a wonderful tree stump on which to climb above their enclosure and watch for threats.

Horse Guards Parade is a large parade ground off Whitehall in central London. It is the site of the annual ceremonies of Trooping the Colour, which commemorates the monarch's official birthday, and the Beating Retreat.
Horse Guards Parade was formerly the site of the Palace of Whitehall's tiltyard, where tournaments (including jousting) were held in the time of Henry VIII. It was also the scene of annual celebrations of the birthday of Queen Elizabeth I. The area has been used for a variety of reviews, parades and other ceremonies since the 17th century.
The adjacent Horse Guards building was once the Headquarters of the British Army. Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington was based in Horse Guards when he was Commander-in-Chief of the Forces. The current General officer commanding London District still occupies the same office and uses the same desk. Wellington also had living quarters within the building, which today are used as offices.
Chance likes to help Molly guard the house against a squirrel attack. So far they have been very successful :)
The Ropery consists of Hemp Houses (1728 extended 1812), Yarn Houses and a double Rope House with attached Hatchelling House. The Ropery is still in use being operated by Master Ropemakers Ltd.
The Double Rope House has spinning on the upper floors and ropemaking ( a ropewalk) on the ground floor. It is 346m (1135 ft) long, and when constructed was the longest brickbuilt building in Europe capable of laying a 1000ft rope. Over 200 men were required before 1836, to make and lay a 20in (circumference) cable. All was done by hand. Steam power in the form of a beam engine was introduced in 1836, and then electricity in the early 1900s.

And they said 'less than an inch'. I beg to differ. It's probably closer to 2 inches.
