Camilla certainly has taken to the role of Queen Consort, she has had a smile from ear to ear doing the events lately.  She is a big help to Charles and seems to love meeting all the people.  I like seeing her out and about, working and taking care of the royal business.  Good for her and she is no young chick either.

Gert's Royals Twitter says
QuoteRoyal Maundy Thursday usually rotates around England, taking place in a different location each year, with service at Westminster Abbey every decade.

QuoteThe Royal Maundy Thursday Service will take place at Worcester Cathedral on March 28th.

QuoteThe Royal Maundy service takes place each year on the Thursday before Easter. The Royal Maundy service is an important event for the King as he is head of the Church of England.  

At the service the Monarch distributes specially-minted coins in red and white purses to people from across the country in recognition of their outstanding Christian service. The number of recipients is determined by the Monarch's age. If the Monarch is 74, there there would be 74 men and 74 women.
