Tower of London

Question

During my twenties I actually worked in the Tower of London. I was the Electrical/Mechanical engineer charged with looking after both these services for the government. On the odd occasion I actually had to sleep there which in itself was a unique experience. I thought I would share the clip below which shows a "Yeoman Warder" on one of his guided tours with the public. These tours are never boring. The main object is to entertain the crowd whilst dispatching relevant facts about the Tower. Each warder used to have his own oration, some good, some not so good. If ever you get the opportunity of visiting the Tower, please go on a guided tour. There is no charge as it's included in the admission cost but it will definitely enhance the visit.

Yeoman of the Guard

Welcome to my castle
