Sportif!: Derf Goes Deep C Diving for Danish Television: Demonstrably Happier Without Madam and Casually Talking With His Mates

No wedding ring when he goes down! He's learning!

Our Widdle Fweddie was recently filmed with the divers and archaeologists involved with an 18th century shipwreck off the coast of Falster in the southern Zealand area of Denmark. This time he remembered that deep sea diving and wedding rings don't go well together and took his off. Dang that time in Florida when he went diving (hanging out) with the manatees (hookers) on an official sailing holiday (a secret Miami getaway) and his Greenlandic gold wedding ring fell off his finger (was left on a hotel nightstand and later pawned in the Little Havana neighbourhood). Those of you in Denmark will be able to watch the tv programme with Derfie next Monday on "Mit Danmark" (TV2). Always striking how much more relaxed and happy and semi-normal he appears when no where in the vicinity of Madam!

Crown Prince in Deep Water in a TV ProgrammeOn Monday there will be a distinguished visitor on the TV series "My Denmark": Crown Prince Frederik comes for a visit.

Crown Prince Frederik is a tanned sailor who among other things has made ​​a name for himself in racing with holdings in DM and VM in dragon boating. On Monday, 2 December, he will be a guest on Troels Kløvedal's legendary ship Nordkaperen in the TV series "My Denmark".

But the voyage with Kløvedal also offers more than just a ride on the blue waves. The Crown Prince also gets the chance to play wreck diver to find interesting objects on a sunken ship from about 1707, located in Falster between Lolland and Falster.

In the clip above you can see the Crown Prince diving down to the wreck and finding himself a virgin in deep waters (the Crown Prince is referred to as "Diver 1" while he is underwater ).

New Thomas Kluge Portrait of Danish Royal Family: "Celebrating" 150 Years Today of the Glucksborg Dynasty: Boganborg Kids Are Gargoyles, Schackenborg Gets Off Easy, All Are Oblivious to the Destruction of Civilisation Behind Them (and Because of Them?): Symbolism, Ho!

Presented without commentary, although it should be noted that even The Fug Girls couldn't let this one pass. Commemorative book can be purchased here: Saxo


The Laurits Tuxen painting that inspired the new portrait, that of the family of King Christian IX at Fredensborg, with all children and grandchildren:

Yrma and Derf in Mexico, Day Three: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

The Hand of Daisy? Or the Hand of the Danish Taxpayer?

 

 

So, on the last day of El Grande Tour de Mexico by the Saviour of Little Brown People and her husband thinggie, Madam drugged Fred for his business meeting at which he could barely stay awake, took the lead in speech giving, scared a poor little girl, and posed holding her Danish Government-mandated bouquet of posies with one hand seemingly luring Fred back into the fold, and another hand seemingly ready to pluck Mary back up into the Mother Ship to Planet Sociopathic Narcissist from whence she came.

 

Compare to the photos of the heir to the Spanish throne and his wife visiting Hispanic California the same day. Two elegantly dressed but non-flashy professionals, no lady-in-waiting, no mandated floral bouquets handed to the lady by scared children, no little paper Spanish flags being waved by bussed in school children, just two people working hard and seriously as dignified representatives of Spain, noble enough to allow others to be spotlighted, and smart and meaningful enough to get the CEO of Google to come meet with you and show off his company and latest products. Larry Page would NEVER leave his office for Derf or Yrma, the two Danish duds. Even Maz senses it not so deep down. Here on the last day in Mexico she wore the same Ralph Lauren dress she accessorised with Jackie O bug-eye sunnies, and matching hat, gloves, and shoes that wouldn't even stay on her bunioned feet because she refuses to wear stockings, but this time the outfit was considerably dressed down.

 

 

"Somebody help me!"

 

Yrma and Derf in Mexico, Day Two: The Danish Photoshop Crew Is Working Overtime to Present Madam in the Best Possible Light: Not Easy!

Wow! No more sun damage!

 

 

Dear Lene,

 

Listen, no more Latin America visits, okay? Yes, it's a vital, interesting, diverse part of the world, and Danish companies are there and it's all good and really nice people, don't get me started on the food, YUM. But here's the deal. The Photoshop crew cannot stop complaining about how sore their arms are from airbrushing Madam. We're going to start to have to pay out worker's compensation for workplace injuries on thissie. Two of our guys have their arms in slings already! And without sleep, since making Madam beautiful is a fool's errand at best, they are all getting punchy. I'm managing to keep them awake with the potent coffee here, but head's up for some serious overtime payments to this crew. We just initially assumed the gray hair and sun damaged skin would have to go, and a dewy complexion would replace it. Nuh-uh. The left ankle twitching is creating blurs in these high speed cameras, if you can believe it. I mean, it's going like a ceiling fan on high. It is taking A LOT of time to correct. Madam did do us a favour today and skipped out on one of her events, just like she left early from the charity event last night. So there are occasional saving graces. But her getting out in front of the cameras is her life's greatest mission, so there are rough days ahead.

 

Many thanks,

Minister Astrid Kragh
