Thank you for posting Iceflower.

I was very impressed by the sincerity of both Charles & Camilla. I especially thought Camilla's actions in sending vouchers privately was a wonderful thing to do.

I hope the media give it the attention it deserves but I doubt it somehow.
 
I agree with VictoriaB too. She is doing really great work that deserves attention.
 
Camilla seems to have a knack for being discreet which I admire, it's a great quality, especially given her position.
 
Good for them! There's more and more to admire about this couple, especially Camilla.

I'm in full agreement. My esteem for them rises with each appearance and article. Camila has risen in my book as a royal and an individual. She does a great deal of good, and it's evident that she has a big heart and loves to help those who are in need.

Seeing as all three threads are closed, I thought I'd post my excitement for the Scandinavian tour here. Lovely to finally see some interaction, although surprised that they are going in connection with the Jubilee.

The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall have visited the Isle of Man as part of the Diamond
Jubilee celebrations today, April 26.

They've visited the 'Team Royal London 360 Isle of Man Cycling Club' at the National Sports Centre,
they've paid a visit to the House of Manannan in Peel and the Isle of Man Food Park as well as to
the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) Peel Lifeboat Station.

As well as the Isle of Man, Charles and Camilla were in my part of the world today. They visited St George's Church in Belfast. Charles last visited the church over 20 years ago when it had been devastated by bombs during the Troubles. It's renovation is now almost complete.

Always nice to see royals popping 'across the water' to see us.
 
Looks like C&C got some pretty dire weather!

Love that first pic you posted, iceflower! They seem to be enjoying themselves, although there's a pretty miserable chap to their right!
 
Thanks for all the updated, iceflower. :)
EIIR, that picture is hilarious! It almost looks as though they are presiding over a knighting ceremony: with this bread-cutter I knight thee Sir Bread of Irwin bakery! :D

Soda bread's pretty nice but I wouldn't say it was deserving of a knighthood!

They seem to have great fun together and I'm glad that they've popped over for a few days.
 
I love the picture of Charles and Camila at the bread factory. Their smiles say it all :D. It does indeed look as if they're knighting the bread (or are about to give it a nice whack with the cleavers :lol:). Also, want to add that the dragonfly brooches the Duchess is wearing are absolutely gorgeous.
 
Good luck for them..It was 7 years ago,Charles and Camilla married.Many peoples mocking both of them,but who cares?.Charles is good and has good responbilty although little awkward and strange.Hm,maybe this is just my feeling,Camilla like his nanny rather than as wife:ermm:
 
The Duke and Duchess of Rothesay took a royal salute from Armed Forces and Royal British Legion members during a march at the Palace of Holyroodhouse on May 9, 2012 in Edinburgh, Scotland. Prince Charles and Camilla are undertaking various engagements in Edinburgh and Glasgow as part of Their Royal Highnesses' annual Holyrood Week.

Camilla looks very nice, and Prince Charles cuts quite a dashing figure in a uniform. :)

Love the video, thanks MagMil! :)
Prince Charles looked quite professional. LOVED the "Aha!" at 0:44 and "Who the hell wrote this script" at 0:51. :D

Prince Charles and Camilla the Duchess of Cornwall read the weather in the Six O'Clock studio whilst on a tour of the BBC Scotland Headquarters in Glasgow, Scotland. They also met staff to celebrate sixty years of BBC Scotland Television Thursday May 10, 2012.

Charles's weather bulletin was absolutely fantastic! He's such a good sport, and did pretty well too!
