Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall and Queen of Indolence

A grueling, long, arduous, and taxing tour of ten full days tired poor Camilla before she even started on it to the extent she desperately needed to catch her breath.

The Duchess feels the heat. The Rottweiler took it easy again and reduced her minimal workload to near zero. When other royals work their asses off, namely the Princess Royal and the Queen, milady horse face has no intention of doing even just a little bit of work.

 
Prince Charles and Camilla were going on a little holiday, hitting Japan, Brunei, and Indonesia. What others would relish as a long sought after holiday, her ladyship thought too strenuous for her fragile health. But, dear lady, just looking years older than the Queen does not mean you have to work less than her. Having hankered livelong after this position, one would think that the lady could at least do a bit of travelling for the good of the country; she is costing enough in upkeep every year. And there are lots of prettier horses with better racing abilities in British stables that cost us nothing. 

Clarence House had to admit that she was shying before the trip to Indonesia as being too arduous. I don’t think any of the horses were asked before going to Hong Kong, and they definitely represented the country much better. Criticism that the Duchess was workshy was rejected by a senior aide who insisted that she was very committed to the tour. I am very committed, too, and I am not going at all, could I please get the yearly apanage that clearly is due for persons pretending all commitment and doing no work? 

The aide added that the Duchess needed to catch her breath. That would explain it, wouldn’t it? Obviously she was running both ways to be so out of breath. Good horsey. She should have been in full form again for Remembrance Sunday and Charles 60th birthday celebrations, two appearances she didn’t managed to wriggle out of. I am sure it wasn’t for the sake of trying though. She was missing at least one morning reception. 

The cost of this little jaunt was estimated at £250,000, just what everyone spends for a ten day holiday. Officials insisted that the use of a chartered plane was the most cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to travel between three countries in such a short time. They did obviously not consider the possibility of sending those two abroad longer on a slower journey, which certainly could have been done. Walking would have been much cheaper and environmentally less damaging than flying. And both wouldn’t really be missed that much while being on the way. 

The claim that it was a long tour, we are talking 10 days, doesn’t even sound amusing. It’s just pitiful. Her Laziness probably has herself pushed in a wheelchair from one room to the other, the trip from the bedroom to the bathroom being so long. Being by profession a wife, I deliberately don’t call her a housewife who would work something in the house, and mother, which doesn’t say she did anything with her children at all, is obviously not the right set up for a working royal.

So Prince Charles saddled us with a lazy, workshy, horse faced Rottweiler who lives on our tax money getting fatter in the haunches and longer of teeth. Just thinking about the remote possibility that That Woman could one day come even near the throne makes one say a heartfelt long live the Queen!
