I have just returned from a trip to the Tower of London. The place is atmospheric - it's got a history going back 900 years. The Warders carry out a ceremony every three years.
They walk round the perimeter of the castle in full dress uniform. The children who are living in the tower at the time, and some from a local school, usually take part as well. It is very colourful. I want to put the ceremony in my next Urban Fantasy novel.
I had considered using a photograph of the Tower as the cover of my novel. That was the purpose of the visit.
