Thank you for your tally. Interesting to know that you also do a tally for the Danish Royals.Like last year, I tried to calculate how many days the Royal Family members worked on publicly announced/shared events during 2018. I also looked at their official international trips abroad (19 different countries visited this year). I am not sure if anyone is interested but I thought I would share here just incase it peaks anyone's interest.

LadyFinn- I went through all the Social Media Accounts I could find to try and get all of Daniel's events because I agree with you that it is shame the court doesn't share more about his work with Prins Daniel Fellowship and GenPep.
The court publish NOT all official events of the royal family!
Stoppa pressarna wrote yesterday, that the king and queen will spend the New Year in Miami with Madeleine and family. Stoppa pressarna wrote that they left today in the morning with a SAS plane. The magazine also speculated that there have been rumours that Carl Philip and Sofia and Victoria and Daniel would also go to Miami but they hadn't got confirmed information about this.

Seems strange when Margareta Thorgren said that Madeleine and family would spend some weeks in Stockholm. They only arrived on 17th December.
Calculating the days the royals work doesn't tell everything about how much the royals work. King Carl Gustaf has sometimes six, maybe even seven work events in a day, making long days. When he gives audiences to four ambassadors, each audience lasts about 20 minutes with a break between them. When someone else can have a meeting at the Royal Palace that lasts 30 minutes. But they both worked one day.
And if you compare Daniel and Carl Philip: if you look at the court calendar (which isn't good at all), Daniel has this year had 17 work days, in which he has had more than one work event, Carl Philip has 5 days. The difference in their work load is much bigger than what you get if you calculate only work days. Besides, Daniel has had 6 visits with Prince Daniel's Fellowship entrepreneurial programme. They visit two schools/universities and the days last 6-7 hours + travelling.
And the court doesn't make the calculation easy, because at the calendar they list for instance to the state visits only the king and queen attending, although then at the articles they may mention, that the others attended too.
The saga continues. They cannot get their story straight...
I thought Victoria, Daniel, and the kids were going skiing in Norway?
Here you go. I posted about the conviction a few hours agoI heard in the news, that the crown jewels are found... Is there informations somewhere in the Forum about the theft? I am surprised, that I didn't hear about this in the previous year.
