I just feel that Prince Charles is being more and more accepted by his people. His wife the Duchess will be accepted too. She really seems to bring the best of Charles out. And to me a happy couple will be wonderful for Britian and the world stage.:):rolleyes::)
 
Basically the thing I like about Camilla most is her ability to make P of W happy, I love to see happy pics. of them together
 
I tried to find out from YouGov how many people were polled and the criteria laid down by the company asking for the poll. So far no reply. Speaking to some friends and employees this morning over coffee, I was amazed to find that none of them watch the news, buy and read a paper or read the news online!:D Too much doom and gloom, apparently they rely on hearing anything startling from people who may have seen/read the news, which is all very well if they repeat what they have heard accurately, without their own opinion.
As a UK citizen, I am not 'concerned' by poll results as I have never seen any evidence that 1004 people can show how a few million might think. :D :flowers:
 
I have to agree with you. Its difficult to rely on these polls as the sample sizes tend to be quite small, and often do not necessarily stretch the entire social fabric of the kingdom. I think most people have accepted Camilla as the wife of Charles, and I guess, in time will accept her as Queen.

I know this is a little of off the subject, but the polls for Presidential race in US said for most of the race the candiates were tied. We all know that that was untrue and to my way of thinking - just like the Duchess' press - something the Press can write about on a subject that really doesn't have anything to write on it.:)

THE Duchess of Cornwall was full of joy as she visited the Royal Veterinary College in Brookmans Park today (Thursday).

Thanks for the pictures, giov! Looks like it was a lovely event, and the Duchess looked quite comfortable and happy around all of those cute animals.
 
Probably. Can't think which other Queen Mother they'd be talking about.
 
I think she looks more glamorous since her marriage even though she's aged. She also has a beautiful smile.She looks pretty good for someone who doesn't exercise and has "let herself go"! She's obviously very happy with Charles and it shows.

Queen Mary was queen mother, too, but IMHO the first one to use "Queen Mother" as a title/style was Queen Elizabeth because there was the need to be able to distinguish between Queen Elizabeth II. and her mother. Of course, QEII was "The Queen" but her mother had been that before her so I think to create this style was a smart thing to do.
 
Thank you for these pretty pictures. Here I find the dress of the Duchess of Cornwall very flattering: the fur at the hat, the velvet on the collar and the sweet ruche around the neck: IMHO very nice!
 
Here's an additional gallery of pics

Her Royal Highness Camilla, The Duchess of Cornwall, visits the Wiltshire Air
Ambulance service and meets the Air Ambulance Team to be shown the equipment
used on the helicopter in Devizes, UK on November 21, 2008.

And this is my favourite pic from today, really lovely :) --> Camilla
 
That is nice Ice! Thanks! :flowers:
But I wonder, why in the world are they tagging them (the Gallery photos) Camilla Parker-Bowles? She's been married to HRH for what? 3 years now?

Nice pics a D of C but I don't think much of the hat, was a smart outfit otherwise, and she looks very happy to be there

You're welcome :flowers:, it's the same with CP Letizia, you often find
her maiden name listed as well, seems there are some special experts
around ;)

Thank you for the pictures iceflower, Camilla is looking really smart in them. :flowers:
Here is an article to accompany them

PRINCE Charles’ wife Camilla has been named as the first president of the Maggie’s cancer centre appeal.
The Duchess of Cornwall has followed the Chronicle’s lead in supporting Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centres, a charity that provides tranquil havens all over the county where cancer sufferers and their families can get expert help to cope with the disease

That is very cool!! I think in her role as President, HRH will impact that charity for good a lot!
