:previous: Good thing you're doing. :)

Unfortunately these kinds of scrub-things are popular aboard ships, where there is a lot of oil.
 
Frederik is getting a good coverage these days.

Here he is in his navy dress uniform, Pia Meisner from BB who posted this gallery hardly hides how she's been drooling: SE BILLEDERNE: Så flot er kronprins Frederik i uniform | BILLED-BLADET

And here he is again, this time with children - and in uniform...: Prince Frederik follows in Mary's footsteps days after she appeared with an assault rifle... by firing off a starting pistol at a children's race - and flinching | Daily Mail Online

Women only see men as sex-objects. We want to be respected for our intellect as well, you know. :ohmy:
 
In uniform and with children, Frederik really shines;)
But he also looks fantastic in regular suits as well.

Thanks, dbarn.
Perhaps you should check the links, dbarn. My firewall went up when trying to open the second picture. :ermm:

Thanks, Polyesco.

Energy saving systems, both in regards as know-how and complete system is a major and growing export here in DK.

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #23, 2016.
Written by Ulrik Ulriksen.

Recently Frederik went to Nyboder in Copenhagen.

Nyboder is housing for navy personnel. Build in 1631 the neighborhood consists of rows of family houses in a distinct style: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fb/Nyboder_%28Copenhagen%29.jpg

There was another neighborhood for navy officers but this is for NCOs and specialists and their families, constituting the core of the ranks and file aboard warships. And it still is, even though today it's for all branches of the military. It's a pretty sought after neighborhood and after centuries of affiliation with the navy there are even several rousing songs about the area.
In fact some of Frederik's mates from the Frogman Corps lived here in his time.

It was here Frederik arrived at the local museum, Nyboders Mindestuer. he was received by the Music Corps of the Navy, as well as the head of the exhibition, Johan Lausten and his daughter Augusta, who is seen in several photos. Present was also the navy chaplain from the navy church, Holmens Kirke as well as "frogs" from the Corps.
The reason for Frederik's visit was that the museum has an exhibition about the Frogman Corps. It's foundation, training and functions and of course some of the equipment.
Followed by uniformed military personnel, including the Defense Chief, without headgear outside (That I should live to see that!) Frederik cut a piece of camouflage netting to open the exhibition. Inside the mood was very merry, yarns, tall stories and anecdotes were told.
In the yard a row of T-shirts used by the "frogs" were hanging and that made Frederik laugh. Obviously a kind of inside frogman-joke.

Here is more about the old houses: http://nybodersmindestuer.dk/

It's hard to keep up with all Frederik and Mary's many daily events... Thumbs up.

But what a pleasure it always is to observe Frederik & Mary out on their many (almost daily) events - all single of them are done with a sunshine attitude and they actually looks like someone who LOVE their job every time :flowers:

Here more pictures from Frederik's event today presenting the ELFORSK prize:

Kronprins Frederik fodrede fisk med golfbolde | BILLED-BLADET

Today Frederik took part in a golf tournament in Copenhagen harbor, and it seems practically all his balls ended up in the water...
Even though he tried various irons (one being antique) our reporter observed that Frederik's swing was... varied....

However, the many golf balls shouldn't annoy the fish too much - they were made from fish-fodder.

The hole was placed about 25 meters away out in the water and finally at long last Frederik hit the hole - no doubt disappointing the fish...

- It's good and funny attraction which will delight the fish.
 
:previous: thank Muhler. He needs a bit more practice.

How nice that the golf balls were made of fish-fodder, maybe that affected his game ;);)

Two more picture from the DRF
Dansk Golf Unions OL arrangement | Kongehuset
He was joined by the Danish golfers heading to the summer Olympics, for the first time in a very long time golf is now part of the Olympics
"After 112 years of absence is golf again part of the program at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in August. Denmark places at the Olympics with two male and two female participants. At the Olympics played 72 holes stroke play over four days."

The fish don't think so... :D

Thanks, Polyesco. :flowers:
The iron he used was from 1904! I know next to nothing about golf but I guess there has been some development since then.
 
:previous: Frederik's eight official event since Monday.
The DRF facebook has managed to mention two of them, one at instagram. No photos or news of Benedikte's meetings or Queen M receiving the President of Poland....
 
:previous: Not impressive!

Didn't they employ one recently to deal with the online/social media part of the PR?

Yes, but if they post photos or news on the website, why not post them on social media too...?? I assume, that with facebook and instagram, many more people would see the news, compared to people who actually enter the website to check for news and photos.

I am not on social media, but if I was, I would give feedback on their facebook page.
And also about adding the news in English. Lots of people have asked for it.
 
:previous: agree! hopefully it improves even more!
on the plus side the organizations themselves have been great about including the Crown Prince.

baby steps...;)

Thank you it's not only me who is irritated. I thought the point of the Facebook/Instagram pages was to bring out to the ordinary Danish people how many events/meetings the DRF have. But yes - Frederik has had events every day of the week - and only 2 of them have the DRF bothered bringing on Facebook. What is the meaning of the Facebook page then?

They are not better with Margrethe's, Mary's or Benedikte's events this week.

In addition, yes good coverage og all Frederik's events in the media yes. But the DRF Facebook/Instragram lagging. It started good... Also with personal touch as Mary posting her own iPhone video. Please continue this way.
Otherwise, they might as well have leave it to not go on social media.

""Three students were awarded with scholarships to study at Havard University in the US from the Crown Prince Frederik Fund. It is the 23rd time that the H.R.H. Crown prince is a part of supporting studies in social sciences. At the scholarship distribution the Crown prince held a speech for the three recipients in the Lady Hall at Frederik VIII's mansion at Amalienborg."

a great scholarship opportunity. :flowers:

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #24, 2016.
Written by golf-reporter Ulrik Ulriksen.

As you recall Frederik went to the harbor recent to feed the fish...
Well, actually he went there as the Danish member of IOC and purpose was to put focus on the Danish golf-players going to Rio for the Olympics.
So along with two professional players, Søren Kjeldsen and Thorbjørn Olesen, Frederik took up position 25 meters from the hole, placed out in the water.

First Frederik tried an iron from 1904. - But you know, people were shorter back then and stuff...
Then he tried a hyper-modern iron. - But there appears to have been fault in the manufacturing because try as he might, Frederik couldn't put any of the golfballs made from compressed fish-fodder.
Okay! Then he took the balls by hand and began to toss them and finally he got a hole-in-one. :D

But Frederik also sailed out on the occasion of World Ocean Day. He strolled from Amalienborg down to the harbor from where he went sailing aboard a sailing boat along with the Minister for Environment and Foodstuff Esben Lunde Larsen and Henrik Beha Larsen from Plastic Change.
Plastic Change has been the recipient of a grant from M&F and their aim is to investigate and monitor the huge islands of plastic-soup in the Pacific.
