Is it just me or does it seem that Camilla is doing more on her own at the moment?

I know she is still doing lots with Charles but she is also striking out more on her own - which is a good thing and shows, to me, a couple of things - she is getting more comfortable and confident with her role and that organisations etc are asking for her alone indicating that the public are increasingly happy to see her alone.

There actually still are Town Criers? I thought that post would have been winnowed out with the times. What are their duties, might I ask?

[muriel]

There is no doubt that Camilla is a lot more comfortable in her royal role now, and as a result, is happy to do a lot more solo engagements. I don't believe there was ever a shortage of potential solo engagements for her, I think it was just her reluctance to do them.

I think it's just a historicial remnant, like the night watch (or bellman)
in other old cities, a tourist attraction..

Here are pics from today:

Ah! Thank you Ice!
And I see that the DoC has taken our Beatrix Fan's advice and is wearing a lovely pashmina scarf that looks very good on HRH.

You're welcome, Russophile

I've found this one in addition to yesterday's visit and found it
really funny, kids are just brilliant

Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall reads to children from Avondale Park School
during a visit to a Mad Hatter's Tea Party at Foyles, Westfield on March 4,
2010 in London, England.

The Duchess was at the bookshop to celebrate World Book Day and read
an extract of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland to a group of children from
Avondale Park School.

Once more wonderful to see Camilla interacting with children!

The 3rd photo is just priceless! Thanks much! Camilla looked great once again. Apart from this elegant jacket - I think we see that quite often lately - the black skirt and the clutch were a nice match.

And I agree with Russophile above: the pashmina scarf looks wonderful on her! And what a beautiful blue shade!

The Press Association: Camilla reads Alice for book day

The Duchess of Cornwall left a group of youngsters spellbound during a reading session to mark World Book Day.

Yet another little nosy parker gives the Duchess of Cornwall's profile a tweak

I would love to see a video of her reading to the children, perhaps one will surface later. I love watching her interact with children, she must be a very fun grandmama.

I like this photo, it's lovely. Both Camilla and a child look in harmony with another one.
