JosephineDane Report post Posted January 1 Happy new year everyone 🎉 Thanks for creating the new 2021 threads. No new year gala/courts tonight and the next days. Lets hope this year will be a brighter year where we all can see more to our close ones, and we also can see more to CP Frederik, CP Mary and the children 🙏 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mls Report post Posted January 1 🎉 Happy new year Must be odd for them to not have to dress up for the banquet tonight...It's the second time during QM's reign that the New Year's Banquet and Courts have been cancelled. The first time was 2005 after the tsunami. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JosephineDane Report post Posted January 1 Yes very. On the other hand I can’t help but think they also might enjoy it! A year where they finally don’t have to dress up and be ready on 1st January. But then it is a year where no one could hold a big party anyway 😅 Wondering where F&M and kids have spend New Year? They usually spend it in Jutland with the Skeel family, don’t they? I have not seen any pictures from Amalienborg that can show whether the flag over Frederik VIII's palace is up or not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have spent some New Year's with the Skeel's (and probably others) but not sure they do it every year? Perhaps they take turns in arranging a party? Not much of a party this year, if the recommendation is max 10 people. There were a couple of photos somewhere of Frederik VIII Palace during the Queen's speech yesterday evening with no lights.

It doesn't indicate anything much other than that it's to do with horses. "Mary's difficult time - Here she finds peace" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JosephineDane Report post Posted January 13 Arg I see. It could seems to be at Fredensborg. I can see if I can sneak in to get a glimpse in the magazine today or tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

January) in the beautiful sunny weather Mary was spotted at Christiansborg's riding arenas (where the royal horses are stabled during the winter months). She came driving and had dog Grace with her, who happily jumped out when Mary opened the trunk of the car. Mary was spotted while riding the horse Edelmann at the sunny outdoor riding arena. The magazine writes she perhaps is training for more horse competitions. Maybe she simply just enjoyed a ride. A little later, Frederik came driving with Isabella and Josephine (and a girl look to be Isabella’s friend) who all joined. The magazine writes that Isabella's horse Lancet and Josephine's pony are also stabled at Christiansborg's royal stables during the winter. I doubt much that the weekly magazine knows anything about who the horses belongs to, but I mean to know that the horses were stabled at Fredensborg’s horse stables all summer and probably also will in the future if the Crown Prince family will continue to live in Kancellihuset during the light months.

JosephineDane Report post Posted January 15 Looking at the pictures it is obvious that the weekly magazine got it wrong: Frederik, Mary, Isabella, Josephine (and a girl look to be Isabella's friend) were all already at Christiansborg's riding arena when the photographer heard/got information they were there. So when the photographer shows up, he sees Frederik with Isabella, Josephine and a friend leaving the riding arena and driving home. Mary stays and trains a little extra alone before she is also seen going to her car and driving home with Grace. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mls Report post Posted January 31 (edited) Could be. Or Gråsten? The sofa behind the TV is not really F&M's style. I think Gråsten has a room with a similar ceiling, but ? Don't know. Edited January 31 by mls Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mls Report post Posted January 31 Thank you. The ceiling looks similar. Wasn't there one room at Gråsten with a ceiling that looked like that too? Not sure I remember that correctly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
