This will be her third visit to the town having visited the Simonside Youth Centre in 2002 when she received a fluffy yellow duck, comments were also made about her likeness to the late Princess Diana of Wales. She returned to the town last year to visit a Mencap facility in Candlish Street, South Shields where she joined residents for a cup of tea in her capacity of President of the charity. It is understood that further engagements in the town are planned for the Countess at the end of this month. (Looks like a good photo opportunity for Curly's Photoshop!) Link Royal Diary
