How nice!
I wonder if the Cp couple are still in town or have made their way to Verbier?
Is it school holiday yet?

[Roskilde]

With small flags in the windows and Mary with an official event last night I'm quite sure they are still at home. It's the Danish school children's last day of school tomorrow Friday, so a good guess would be they travel Saturday.

A very nice 43 picture long birthday gallery:

You've gotta be...

Is there a name of the novelist who wrote this?

[royal rob]

In fairness they might be told " I want a story about Mary NOW" so they just dust off a old one.

No name, I don't think anyone would want to own it.

I borrowed the magazine from my neighbour, it has a few more details from said "royal insiders". This from the article - The family will be having an official dinner at Fredensborg Palace to wrap up the birthday events and this is when the royal insiders expect the announcement to be made before a written declaration is sent out the next day.
My neighbour is only person that I know that buys these silly magazines.

[MidwestMom]

It must be a slow news week. These articles always put the emphasis on Mary (well, it is an Australian magazine) but Frederik is barely mentioned; he's almost an afterthought.

One more thing: in rechecking the new portraits, I notice that in the one where they're alone, they each look very controlled, almost tense. But in the one where they're together, they have visibly relaxed. That's lovely to see.

[Muhler]

And the Silliest Article of the Week Award goes to (drum-roll) BT, for this completely idiotic article about... nothing: Hov: Stiller kronprinsesse Mary op til valg i Hamborg? - Udland | www.bt.dk

It's about a female politician running for election in the German city of Hamburg, who has a (limited) resemblance with Mary, so you can be forgiven for believing Mary is running for office in Hamburg. - That is if you are a journalist on BT and/or smoke giggle-weed...

- Remarkable, this beats even the Women's Day article. At least that article is about 0.68% plausible... And eventually, over time, Women's Day will be right.

- Eat dust, Aussie friends! Our journalists are way more silly than yours. (We need a thumb your nose smiley).

lol
they could be cousins...distant cousins...lol
you cant blame the bt for trying ..after the bridge "scandal' leading to nowhere

and of course the official pictures make sense now, Mary will be Queen
The DRF are just dropping hints and luckily the Aussie "press" has figured it out

I wonder if CP Mary will pop down to Vienna in May to see the Australian act perform in Eurovision - now we've been invited to compete.

We're being fast-tracked to the final.

Look out Europe - Game On!

Doesn't sound unlikely. Perhaps with her two oldest as well.

I think it would be healthy if Australia (and New Zealand) became permanent contestants. There is a tendency IMO to go too regional in regards to the votes.
Perhaps Canada could join in too? Would be nice with another English/French input.
The votes from "outsiders" like Australia, Canada and New Zealand could shake things up a bit. - And perhaps raise the standard a bit as well. (Yes, I believe in the toothfairy...)

Oh, no! We don't want to raise the standard of Eurovision. That would take all the fun out of it.

*scampers* *hides under chair*

[Muhler]

It would save my day if Australia actually won. And that's not far out, outsiders always have a good chance - and I haven't even heard the Australian contribution yet.
And - over time - we will be on the same continent anyway...

[minstrel2010]

Makes me think about watching the whole show this year instead of my usual last 20 minute,(like to see who wins).

If Oz won - it would mean a major move down here for the following year's competition though.

Maybe that would be a step too far. (Or many steps too far. )

I agree, it would be wonderful if Canada could send an entry; however considering that the contest only registered on Canadian radar when Conchita aka the Bearded Lady won last year, I doubt whether Canada will participate any time soon. I do know that Celine Dion participated at the beginning of her career; she represented Switzerland, however!

After many different articles throughout the week following the announcement that Australia has been invited to compete at this year's Eurovision, there is now a full page article giving the background to how this came about.

"Everyone acknowledges the Princess Mary effect may have had some influence." - says the report.

And make no mistake, we are out to win. "We want to win this. It's on".

(And if we do, the following year's competition won't be here in Oz due to time differences and budget issues - but would be co-produced with a European broadcaster.)

This report may be online if anyone wants to see the details of the three year campaign fought to bring it about.

"That vision thing - Not Content With A Place In The Eurovision Song Contest, Australia Now Wants To Win It" by Kathy McCabe in the Saturday edition of the Sydney "Dail Telegraph".

[Sun Lion]

The University of Tasmania is staging a "Welcome Home Week" as part of their 125th Anniversary events, of which CP Mary is the Patron.

They are inviting their "alumni family globally" to go back there at this time.

Perhaps CP Mary will make the trip - August 29th till September 5th.

Ok, today they changed Joachim being regent from the 26 to the 1st

Yes prince Joachim was regent four days over last weekend from Thursday the 26th to Sunday the 1st. Her&Nu tell is was because Frederik, Mary and all four children spent an extended weekend abroad. There are pictures of Mary and the children go aboard on the airplane last Thursday after Mary's last official event that day. As you know Frederik preferably not fly together with Christian and therefore he flew with another flight. Sunday they all traveled back home to Denmark where Mary had the official event with the Mary Foundation this Monday morning.

The magazine is not particularly reliably, but they have pictures of the Crown Prince family boarding the plane and landing in Denmark, but the destination may just be a guess... They write they spent a ski weekend in Switzerland. The same place they once were with Christian and Bella before Vincent og Josephine were born.
