Really great photos thanks for posting them just love the suit fits her beautifully, she is terrific wish there was more coverage of her events, she is terrific.

 

[NoorMeansLight]

Thanks much for the beautiful photos Iceflower! I hope Sophie didn't catch a cold... She looks really elegant in this suit. Lovely, discreet jewels and beautiful shoes too.

 

[iceflower]

You are most welcome

Here are two of her recent events, she attended much more than
that during the last days, but only these two events were covered:

Sophie, Countess of Wessex visited the Hope Family Centre, Bromyard,
Herefordshire - March 17 2010 She planted a tree and unveiled a plaque
to commemorate her visit

I bet you'll post the last 2 photos on the 'Funny faces' as well, right?

Ok, the Countess of Wessex looks lovely once again. I just think that this red suit makes her look older than she is.

 

[iceflower]

Actually I hadn't planned to do so, but now after you've mentioned
it..well..

In the meantime Prince Edward has arrived in Canada, he will stay
there untill March 22nd and will attend several events of the
Paralympics in Vancouver, but also an award ceremony connected
with The Duke of Edinburgh's Award International Foundation.

Prince Edward, the Earl of Wessex, waves to supporters as he walks

Well, here's an idea...

And btw has Edward gained weight?!

 

[iceflower]

Could be..

Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, arrives to present Duke of Edinburgh's
Awards at Point Grey Secondary School in Vancouver, British Columbia,
Canada on Friday, March 19, 2010. The achievement awards are given
to young Canadians between the ages of 14 and 25 who qualify by
participating in various youth groups, through schools or on an individual
basis.

Edward looks a lot more formal, lately. With the different style of jacket, I like it.

Sophie, Countess of Wessex, has been in Paderborn, Germany
for two days! It's been her third visit there in her role as Royal
Colonel of 5th Battalion The Rifles.
Yesterday, March 23, she met soldiers and officers and today,
March 24, she had an official programme in the city of Paderborn.
She got a tour through the ancient parts of the city and attended
a reception at the town hall.

Here are some pics of the two days:

Sophie really appears to enjoy her engagements, and appears to take a real interest in the regiments with whom she is involved - great job!

 

[EllieCat]

Good to see Sophie in a colour other than grey.

 

[Mermaid1962]

She always seems to be so cheerful and lovely. Her father must be so proud of her. Thank you for the pictures, iceflower.

 

[NoorMeansLight]

It's always pleasant to see Sophie during her engagements. She looked really good in Germany - thanks much for the photos, Iceflower!

 

[Lumutqueen]

Good to see Sophie in a colour other than grey.

She was in blue the other day.

Its wonderful that she visits the 5th Battalion The Rifles so often.

 

[bertie5252003]

Thanks for all those photos I think that Sophie does a great jo there with the Rifles like the red trench coat.

Prince Edward's TV company is left with just £40 - Times Online

The collapse of the television production company owned by the Earl of Wessex has left its multi-million-pound investors with just £40.

 

[NoorMeansLight]

Sounds bad... BTW, your link doesn't work - at least not for me - but anyone can google it. I'm going to do it a bit later. Thanks for the news anyway Wbenson! Cheers

Ok, forget my previous comment. It works fine now. Sad news indeed, but 'a private matter'?! People lost money, I don't think so...

 

[Warren]

...but 'a private matter'?! People lost money, I don't think so...

'Private' means Ardent Productions Inc was a private company financed by the Prince and a few wealthy backers.
It was not a public company with shares listed on the stock exchange.

Royal scare over Sophie's missing bag

The Countess of Wessex triggered a royal security scare after her handbag, containing her *mobile phone, went missing, I can reveal.

 

[iceflower]

I think every woman can easily imagine the shock when her
handbag is missing or even stolen..

Here are a few additions to the pics in Paderborn, Germany,
last week:
