1. I have no objection to the marriage, PROVIDING that Charles steps down as King, it would/should be impossible for him to be come King marriage or not give his history he could not surely stand and become head of the church. The law should not change to suit individuals, he know what he was doing and risking when he committed adultery. The public have had enough of paying for these people.

2. I refer you, gentle reader, to the front page of "The Independent"(11 Feb 05), which illustrates how banal and conscienceless we are become as a national readership.
   There is a choice of ELEVEN other current major issues of great import to the life of the thinking citizen… and in the general press, we instead are fed a load of pap about what he said to her, how she replied, what the ring looks like (tasteless, and I’ve seen a few): ye gods! I’m always pleased when A and B come together and are happy in Eastenders, Corrie etc – but this is our (shudder) possible future King! Get a grip!
   Yours, Disgusted of England.

3. Why, exactly, can he not be head of the Church if he marries a divorcee? Was not The Church of England founded on beheading and divorcing and re-marrying? the fact that it is an entirely soulless organisation with no religious import makes him an ideal head, I would say.

   And I also think that if we have to have a King or a Queen at all, it really ought to be Charles. If you are going to have a pathetically archaic system such as a monarchy, you should at least pay some attention to getting it right. The whole thing is founded on the very fact it doesn’t matter if the entire populace thinks the next King is a complete tw**, or even if he is a lying murderer, he still gets to be King, and we all have to give him a lot of our money to do it. The fact that he has re-married, has big ears and is a trifle querulous should be of no import.

4. Beyond all the comments that people has been said about this relationship between prince Charles and Camila,is not a secret for anybody that they have been in love for long time ago. A true love I mean , most of the people search eagerly for the real love along their lives most of the time without finding it. So I am really happy for them and I wish the best for this couple brave enough to show openly their mutual feelings despite many many things.

5. Its a pity that humans are so quick to condemn those that come open of it. What is so wrong about marrying someone of your age? It would be meaningless for charles to hook up witha 20s or a 30s in terms of age for a future queen.

   If he is happy in his old love, so be it. People can choose clothes and furniture, houses and games, but man, a choice for a wife or a job lies squarely with a person.

   Ride on Charles, by the end of April, they will have gotten used to it, and your happiness is all that counts in your life.

6. As far as I am concerned Charles can marry whoever, whenever, wherever and however he likes. If he wants to officially get his leg over the old bint that’s up to him, but I don’t see why the nation should be urged to be pleased either way. Just as long as I don’t have to pick up any of the bill or have the ghastly spectacle repeatedly drawn to my attention via the media.

   However at her age she’ll probably make a better fist of being queenly than the grim Diana. In the main, Royalty does a pretty average job, but currently it’s not good value for the taxpayer’s money – no dignity, no sense and too obviously media driven.

   It’s also entertaining to note how the courtiers ‘advising’ are coming in for a bit of stick. Watch out for further Palace infighting in the next few weeks. I wonder how long it will be before the ubiquitous Burrell gets in on the act……..

8. shamless. Camila, shamless. Just no comment for this so-called love. This is the way they get their sympathy. Lets wait and see what will this woman do after she finally get what she always wants. She will show her nature sooner or later. Double age but half beauty of Dianna.
   Dianna hate her, I wish Dianna could see all this in the heaven. Camila should get her punishment!
