Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall looks great. I think the poor horse needs a dental cleaning or will lose its teeth. It has a great amount of tartar!

It is a brilliant photo, and the D of C's reaction was marvellous, but I fear a 'field day' for comedy sketches and cartoonists

Don't fear, I would imagine Camilla also found it funny and if they are only commenting on the picture, at least they will not be telling us a divorce is imminent!

I knew you did.

Worst comment I've heard about the special pic was: "Camilla...and ermm...Charles?"

Here are some pics from last week:

Great pics Iceflower. I was always so pro Di and anti Camilla, but the D of C is beginning to earn my respect

Thank you for the pictures! The worst comment I saw was 'which is the horse', I suggested she got her eyes tested.

Yes. Probably twelve presents, one for each day of christmas. "On the first day of christmas my true love gave to me...". Oh, no, she probably bought (or so we will read in a certain publication) 1 + 2+ 3 + 4+ 5+ 6+..... till Epiphany.

I hope I have not been misunderstood, as I meant a very good eye, but I am not sure sharp is the right word!

[Warren]

sharp eye = very good eye so you have said the right thing.

Another "Good Job" to the Duchess, i enjoy seeing her in comfortable situations enjoying herself. I wish more recognized her "common touch" and played up this side of her personality. She seems to jump right in and have a jolly time making others feel comfortable...it's a sterling quality IMO (and we know i didn't start out a fan) She seems the type of woman that would help after the party cleaning up and doing dishes and laughing the whole time. I like her and i admire her fortitude making her own path and making the prince so happy (he glows)

Ouch!

Here's one more gallery with pics from today:

Camilla - Decemer 22, 2008

[Skydragon]

The Duchess of Cornwall indulged in some last-minute Christmas shopping when she visited her local charity shop today - picking up a second-hand toy truck for just £3.
Camilla reportedly told staff at the Gloucestershire store that 'everyone likes a bargain' as she snapped up the good-as-new wooden lorry for her granddaughters.
