After living in Chelsea, London, I have been reminiscing about the beautiful black Household Cavalry horses that frequented my street every Friday morning at 5am. There is literally no better sound than fifty or so, fully shod, horse's hooves pacing the pavement outside your window. These horses are a British institution and are know as 'Cavalry Blacks'. They came to the forefront of my mind recently after some were injured when they spooked and fled through the city.
