I wonder what materials the boots that wears Mr. Thompson are made of.
I tend to agree Seerose. He appears dedicated to Charles as he was to the Queen and there seems a genuine fondness between them. I think that he is just more comfortable with his role and maybe more confident as a result. I am sure he is aware of his popularity with the ladies and being human, I am sure that would give his ego a boost as well. But, as always, we can only speculate as to what goes on in his mind. He is good at his job, he always looks great and we love to see him. I try not to think beyond that as a rule.I do not know what to say about this.I do not find him arrogant at all.
From what I saw in videos he seems to be,in contrary, very friendly and cooperative with his colleagues.
And, as I wrote before, he does not push himself in the front row and always try to have a little conversation with their hosts,when they go in visits,and the protocol permit this.
There is another person in the team, which is indeed some arrogant ( I do not want to name it).
And, of course, he is very loyal to Charles .
You can see, for example , when he arrives at Jubilee in June 2022, he is very friendly.
But this is only my opinion.
Euan always looks neat and put together in his kilt pictures. Gerard looks like he has fallen off the wagon....again....
My opinion too. I think his ever turn is professional and dignified.. (and enchanting)I tend to agree Seerose.

Thank you and the other admins for your sterling work keeping us on-topic and civil and not letting us turn into a Reddit thread! And just to make sure this is also not off-topic: Liam Neeson as Rob Roy MacGregor (though the historical Roy Roy would not have been wearing such a modern-looking kilt but oh well …)Which is off topic, please stay on topic. This thread is creating a silly amount of work for our mods/Admins.
Their shoes are a black Brogue. Worn over these is a white gaiter made of heavy linen and whitened for every use. It is attached to the brogue with black buttons either side. The rear of the gaiter is supported with boning to keep it upright.The white boot/ shoe coverings are called SPATS.
US Military, Marines used to wear them too, in the 20 s and 30 s.
