State visit?

[purplecthulhu]

Is there a low key state visit of some kind in London at the moment? Over lunch I saw two coach-and-fours with full formal staff accompanied by police escort and a large be-shielded limousine. There were passengers in both coaches, dressed to the nines and clearly enjoying the tour round South Kensington in HRH's coaches.

Any idea who this might

Weird! When's the Lord Mayor's thing? Are they practicing?

Were you able to get the pictures off your phone in the end?

They wouldn't have a limo following them if it was just a practice, or passengers in the coaches.

Lord Mayor's Show isn't until November anyway.

November!? wow! Pick a really cold and wet month why don't they.

We wouldn't want any wimps as Lord Mayor after all!

And the Lord Mayor's show wouldn't be anywhere near Kensington anyway. Strictly Square Mile.
