I had to have my photo taken with a "Beefeater." The official name is The Yeoman Warders of Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Tower. Originally, they were in charge of the prisoners in the Tower. Now they act as tour guides, and are a tourist attraction in their own right. One theory for the name is that they were rewarded for good service with a ration of beef, which would otherwise be hard to get.
