Why 'acting interested', the variety of fans is enormous and of genuine interest to very many people, including Camilla I would imagine.

The deeper colours are flattering to her skin tone. I'm glad she's gone back to the not so platinum hair. This hair colour suits her.

I think the platinum hair was only ´an idea´ of the D....Mail. I haven´t seen a pic of Camilla with this colour apart from the one in the Mail where Mr Kay tried to tell us something about Camilla´s 100th ´make over´....

Well, you know - there are so many Camillas in the royal family; wouldn't want anyone to get confused...

You can tell she is interested in the fans (how could one not be? They're beautiful!) but I have to say that I think the Duchess looked fantastic in that suit--the color is stunning!

Camilla looks wonderful on her recent engagements. Not sure if any of you have noticed, but she increasingly seems to have her engagements bunched up, ie we have seen quite a lot of her in the last 10 days or so, and did not see very much of her in the 3-4 weeks before that. Have any of you noticed this? Do you guys think she prefers it that way - to work for a week or 10 days and get a number of engagements out, and then be "off duty" for 3-4 weeks?

DANKE for the article and the pics!

muriel, i don´t think that there is a such special system in the Duchess´ diary. In January she and the Prince had a ´new years break´before returning to work.
She had several engagements at the end of January and also now in February, at the beginning of March she will join the Prince to an official visit to the Caribbean.
I´m sure she takes time off for herself and her family, friends etc., but i don´t think she works only in an regular timing.
