a Few more pictures from the 24th
I hope we all notice Joachim's pink pants

My dear Polyesco,
It is obvious that your monitor needs adjusting or that the Christmas dinner has affected your eyesight.
Anyway, gentlemen do not wear pink pants, Joachim is a (perfect) gentleman, ergo the pants are not pink, they are reddish.
On another note it would appear that Christian is telling farbror (paternal uncle) Joachim an impressive tale, judging from Joachim's expression.

Let's go through some of the family names again. It's something we are pretty particular about here in DK, since we have a zillion names for family members. (Not counting those which have gone out of use).
Joachim is Christian's farbror = father's brother = paternal uncle.
Our Marie is Christian's tante = aunt in general or aunt who has married into the family.
Had Joachim and Marie swapped families, Joachim would have been Christian's onkel = uncle in general or uncle who has married into the family.
And Marie would have been Christian's faster = father's sister = paternal aunt.
QMII is Christian's farmor = father's mother = grandmother.
PH is his farfar = father's father = grandpa.
Bedstemor/bedstefar = grandmother/grandfather is now used in general or if the grandparents are old enough to qualify as substitutes for bog-mummies.
Had Queen Ingrid been alive she would have been Christian's oldemor = great-grandmother.
Frederik IX would have been his oldefar = great-grandfather.
Bette Henrik is Christian's fætter = male cousin.
While Athena is his kusine = female cousin.
A sister of Mary is Christian's moster = mother's sister = maternal aunt.
Her brother is his morbror = mother's brother = maternal uncle.
John Donaldson is Christian's morfar = mother's father = maternal grandfather.
Had Mary's mother been alive she would have been his mormor = mother's mother = maternal grandmother.
Susan Moody is Christian's bonusmormor or papmormor = bonus grandmother.
Aspirins anyone?
