I like Camilla's outfit too! I wonder though if she will EVER change her hairstyle!

I shouldn't think so, she has a style she is happy with, so why should we expect her to?

Most women, IMO, by the time they reach their 40's-50's have found the look they want, it tends to be the youngsters who are still searching.

Seems the good Major is hard at work already: I found this on a forum:

Support Our Soldiers Forum

"Prince Charles expresses support for SOS

I have just received a very nice letter from Prince Charles' office. This is an extract. Major Will Mackinlay writes:

"The Prince of Wales has asked me to thank you for your kind letter of 26th June. He also wanted to express his gratitude to you and all your colleagues who are working for the charity, 'Support our Soldiers'.

As a serving soldier I know how wonderful it is to receive a parcel when you are on operations overseas and I know how much our servicemen and women appreciate the work that organisations such as yours carry out."

Seems that the Major is really a nice person to add something personal to such a letter, which made it even more precious to the people who received it.

Yes, it's readily apparent they are going to divorce any time soon!
Oh she looks lovely in white!
They just look like they "fit". You know?

from yesterday evening:

Prince and Duchess grace Salle church

July 31
To many it was just a mild summer's evening in the gentle surroundings of Salle, but for Camilla Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Charles, the main guests of a unique concert organised in the 15th century Church of St Peter and St Paul, the evening was particularly significant.

A "carbon neutral beer" - what is that? Beer without carbonic acid? Poor dears! The things they do for Britain!

Environmentally friendly - i.e. minimal carbon footprint.

Quite funny to read that the Duchess bought a 50p raffle ticket for a chance to win her mother-in-law's coffee cups!

All in all, they look very happy and genuinely enjoying themselves. Seems like Camilla has got the wardrobe from the trip to the Caribbean out

Now, how many middle aged ladies could show up in a ruffled dress with a pearl necklace, a wristwatch with a leather strap drinking beer in broad daylight with a little tummy bulge and look that happy next to a very happy looking man? She pulled it together.......atta girl Duchess!!!!!!!!!!
