The Duchess of Cornwall Current Events 13: January 2010-September 2013

The Duchess of Cornwall looks really nice, especially in the first picture.
I rather like the fact she appears to be promoting education and reading at every opportunity; the importance of both should not be underestimated.

I agree. This is especially key when visiting deprived areas of London where some of the children may not have access to as many opportunities as their counterparts in other parts of the country may.

I agree with you. The Duchess strikes as someone who is genuinely interested in what she does, and has great passion for helping those that are in need.

This is my favorite pic of her ever. How pretty her smile lines (crows feet) are in this photo. I've never thought it fair that wrinkles give a man "gravitas: while they "spoil a woman's beauty." Camilla in this photo shows life's lines can make a lady more beautiful than ever.

Another worthy cause the Duchess in engaged with: the more involved the youth is with community projects, the likelier they'll stay out of troubles and learn responsibility, community effort and hard work from the start.

On a different note, how lovely does Camilla look lately? She's positively glowing on all her recent engagements.

Agree with you on all points.

A strong possibility for a future pic of the month I think.

I would totally vote for it.
The latest pictures are very nice too; the photograph in the last one - is that a gift to the Duchess?

 

[iceflower]

You mean the one I've added under pic 3? It's indeed a gift, but it's a painting she received from artist Charlotte Verity


Here's a nice additional gallery:

First off...To the Lady Veterans of Bletchley Park...Thank you!! They deserve our honour, our respect and our thanks from now till the end of time for what they did during WWII.

Second...I knew about dogs being able to detect Cancer and of course about the ones trained to know when a Seizure is on it's way in time for their Human to be able to prepare in time for it happening. Such as sitting on the floor or going somewhere at school or work that's been put aside for just that happening. First time though I've heard of them being trained to detect Blood Sugar drops.

Wow!! Isn't it amazing what the dogs can be trained to detect these days in order to help those of us who need a Service Animal lead as normal a life as possible? Glad Camilla's helping to put their work into the spotlight it so deserves.

Oh, it looks like heaven for kids to use their imagination. I have a feeling the Duchess had as much fun as the kids.

She looks stunning in that 2nd photo. what I really like about her is that she chose her charities and patronages because the causes were problems/issues that she has always been personally interested in and her interest shines through all the time. She has taken up issues close to Charles' heart and she has embraced them 100%. No one could doubt that. The work she is now involved in is so important. One of the biggest growth areas in advertising revenue is loan companies - and they screw people on interest rates. The charities she saw today lend money at affordable rates to help people in crisis. This should be more widely publicised.

I've really grown to respect Camilla.

Daily Mail reports a "spat" between Duchess of Cornwall and Wayne Rooney's wife.
Apparently Camilla was shown the 5-million pound wedding gown of Mrs.Rooney at an event and she was not amused, and said a thing or two about "being sensitive while spending money". Mrs.Rooney became furious and took to Twitter..

Was this discussed elsewhere? Does this even merit discussion?
And I am pleasantly surprised no personal venom was thrown on Camilla in the comments..Good going..

 

[Lumutqueen]

Doesn't even warrant a discussion. Coleen acting like a typical WAG and moaning on twitter. Hilarious. There's no 'spat' I bet Camilla's laughing her socks off. Just looked at twitter and seen this - https://twitter.com/therealbricktop/status/316874717963354112 LOL!

She can't even spell 'Duchess' properly, in WAG spelling it's 'Dutchess'

I tweeted her the exact same thing! Got several retweets for the effort.

Coleen Rooney sounds dreadful. And the Duchess is quite right that conspicuous consumption solely for the sake of spending money and getting attention is quite insensitive and unattractive.
