Actually the Haka is a Maori tradition which might be shared with other Pacific Islands cultures but there is no European equivalent

His time is nearly over anyway. Early next year we believe. Equerries have a 3 year tenure. Our Jonny will be going back to his Regiment soon. And yes, Charles was jealous of Diana's popularity, but I suppose he is older and wiser now. Youth and beauty will always attract attention.
Johnny hadn't bren the Queen's equerry but her main bodyguard. He's started as an equerry position with king Charles so, it means that Mr. Thompson will work as an equerry for three years started two months ago.

Everyone on internet including the Daily Mail, tweets and Youtube think JT was the Queens BODYGUARD. IT DOESN'T DO ANY GOOD TO POINT OUT THAT HE WAS HER NOT BODYGUARD..
5 Scot provided extra support and security for Balmoral when the Queen was in residence along with local police , info right out of JT own mouth in a TV interview .

Well if we have another three years of JT, I, for one, will be most humbly grateful!
 
Me as well.....but theres probably some sort of RULE about time in service.?
He may be anxious to go back to a regiment, who knows.?
I bet his family would be. ?
His family must miss him but I expect he does get some time off now and then. If we are lucky, he may stay on until after the Coronation. He has been with the King through thick and thin and it would be nice for him to be part of something happy and nice and we would get some good pics too!.

The Saffron Kilt in Ireland
The kilt most traditionally associated with Ireland is known as the Saffron Kilt. These were the first kind worn by the Irish military and are still the most widely worn today. The Saffron Kilt is mustard yellow in colour and often has shamrock appliques adorning the pleat.
That saffron color is beautiful.
