    King Willem-Alexander Current Events 4: Aug 2023 -

    I loved the reply. And got a good laugh out of it. I think in the whole disaster it was probably one of the best comments. A moment of comic relief. And in these dark times we can use every laugh we can get. As long as it's not about something, that really isn't laughable, of course. Jokes...

    Princely Family of Monaco: Current Events Part 10: January 2020 -

    I would have hoped, that, at least for their father's birthday family photo (and events) Jazmin and Alexandre would have been there. I wonder if that's what Jazmin meant when she said she felt excluded in some things. best wishes Michiru

    General News for the Wales Family 1: September 2022-March 2024

    Now, after taking closer look and seeing what the issues are... Well, I don't think the agencies' reactions have something to do with this being about the Wales family, but rather the current climate and sensibility towards artificial intelligence. I doubt this would go down well with anyone...

    General News for the Wales Family 1: September 2022-March 2024

    What's so strange with Louis' fingers? Because he wrapped his middle finger around his ring finger? I have hypermobile joints and I can exactly reproduce that hand/finger holding with my fingers. And no, it doesn't hurt. I bet he, like me, can also do that...

    Willem-Alexander, Máxima and Family, General News 5: Aug 2023 -

    Isn't there that media code, that would make similar pictures taken in the Netherlands pretty much impossible? So, maybe Her Majesty does do such outings, just the general public never gets to know about it?! best wishes Michiru

    Threads with new posts you mean? If so, this seems to be your first visit back, so everything is still marked unread. Easiest way is to mark all forums read, then look for your favorite threads and, just for one time, look at the last post date and if there seems to be something new, click on...

    Just click on the thread title in a subforum (threads with new posts are bolded), that'll bring you to the first post you haven't read, yet. Be aware, that it'll only work from the second time you visit a thread since the update, as the old read status hasn't survived conversion. best wishes...

    Ah, I just noticed zooming in to 150% with Firefox toggles the responsive design, as well as narrow screens do. That works perfectly! No further solution needed on my side. Thanks! best wishes Michiru

    Thank you for all the work of bringing this forum into the modern world! Especially since vBulletin (as much as I liked it) wasn't the securest anymore... I do have a question/request - is there a way to remove/disable the mini profile and latest posts fields on the right, please? I, sadly...

    Prince Albert's Older Children Part 2: 2023 -

    Add, that Camille, who is just as illegitimate, is included in so many events... Shouldn't Alexandre and Jazmín at least be able to be where Camille is, too? I mean, if Alexandre and/or Jazmín want to be in an event and are told "no", but their cousin, who has the same status, is allowed to...

    Eloise, Claus-Casimir and Leonore, News and Pictures 2: 2023 -

    You could say "have your cake and eat it, too" to the public, who complain about Countess Eloise's endeavors, too. Either you want them to not have any state support and then you have no say in what they can or cannot do, or pay them an apanage and make the rules. Can't have both. As for the...

    Royal Family of Belgium - Current Events Part 9 (Jan 2019 - present)

    Most other launches are commercial satellites, so maybe they waited until the payload was an actual ESA mission instead of a purely commercial launch?! Also, Ariane 5 is in the process of being phased out, to be replaced by Ariane 6, soon (maiden flight expected this year). So, this was one of...

    Royal Family of Belgium - Current Events Part 9 (Jan 2019 - present)

    Bot, the launcher (Ariane 5 ECA) and the payload (JUICE, a mission to three of Jupiter's Galilean moons) are ESA, and Belgium is an ESA member state. Guiana Space Center might be in French Guiana, but it belongs to Arianespace and thus, in part, to Belgium. best wishes Michiru

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    I was bullied at school and no matter what my grandma tried to teach me about it when it came to the situation I just froze and none of the lines my grandma told me came to my mind, some people can't fight back. I sure hope Athena is not like me in that regard. I do, it's all too plausible and...

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    Nope, definitely not and never their job, but that of Margrethe, it's her who failed and failed big time! She created that mess and is now, apparently, too coward to live up to it or even woman enough to phone or Face Time her grandchildren to make sure they know it's not their fault. Because...

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    Well, when it comes to using the title outside the Royal business Dronning Margrethe II actually set the example: Screenshot of the 2009 movie De vilde svaner And, quite honestly, I cannot see the difference between modeling and scenography/costume design, both are entertainment. And I bet the...

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    That was exactly what I was talking about. I grew up in a similar situation, my mother didn't want kids, so I grew up with my maternal grandparents and, as a kid, it meant the world to me, that my "Mama" (my maternal grandmother) and I have the same surname. I can imagine, that this is a...

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    However, with gender equality this "usual" is changing, and thank goodness so. That's why Estelle will continue the Bernadotte dynasty, not her male-line cousin. I know some people have a hard time to come to terms with that change, but it's overdue. For the point I was trying to make "of/to"...

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    Maybe that's exactly why Countess Alexandra said the children feel ostracized. Maybe the kids thought of "of Denmark" as kind of their family name and now feel like they have been kicked out of the family (while more distant family members get to stay in). Add that "Monpezat" may be technically...

    Princess Aiko News and Current Events Part 4: January 2021 -

    There is a cultural thing to it. In Japan it's (mostly) okay to sleep anywhere, even at your desk at work. The background is if you're working yourself into exhaustion you are considered a good, hard-working employee, who works until he literally drops on the spot. People in Japan generally...

    Princess Delphine & Family, News & Events 1; 2020 - 2023

    When my great-grandfather returned as one of the last POWs from Siberia in 1952 his fiancée awaited him not only with the child he knew existed and who was his own, biological, daughter (my grandmother), but with another daughter, who was most definitely not his own. He accepted her without the...
