Nice car. Really nice car. I should think about driving Carrera Cup for a few years too, because I desperately need a new car, but can't afford it. And I definitely wouldn't turn down a Porsche if it would be handed to me for free. That said, lucky Carl Philip (and lucky Sofia) and poor me.

In Germany it is possible for fathers as well. Here both parents can take up to three years "Elternzeit" (Parenttime). They can also split the time and get the last 12 month separately between year 3 and 8 (most of the parents (or at least one of them) take those 12 month when the child starts...

We've had the same video in a german newsshow called "Punkt 12" today. Here's the link to the online article including the video. Mette-Marit und Haakon nehmen Auszeit - RTL.de

And isn't it nice that we finally agree on something? :clap:

:previous: Well, then let's put a bit of Emma and a bit of Sofia into a bowl, twirl them around for a while, put the whole thing into the oven for a while and voilà: There's the perfect woman for Carl-Philip. What more could he wish for for christmas? :rofl:

It certainly looks that way lately, but what proof do we have that all that's written has really happened like that. I bet a lot is just made up by the press. Especially the "Madeleine decides who's allowed to come to celebrate xmas with the family"-headline. If anything, she may have said "I...

OK, I don't want to start fighting here, but you seem to have misunderstood something here. First, I won't ever raise an eyebrow and state that you're lying, when you tell me, that you never have done illegal drugs. You're right when you say you never saw the need to take them. I'm completely...

:previous: Oh c'mon. She is a girl in her 20's who was on a party and maybe got a little tipsy. It's totally normal to get a little carried away on a party. No-one here can honestly say she has complete control over everything she says or does 24/7. Don't tell me you are all saints. 'Cause then...

That's why I wrote they were pushing the limits. And how do you know how old she was back than? The site had only photos, no text. Did that stand anywhere else? How reliable are those sources?

Honestly, I like those pictures. Those aren't bad ones or ones shouting "scandal" all over. Only the "bondage"-pic and the last two are pushing the limits a little, but since I think she made them years ago when there was no prince in sight I don't see why she shouldn't have taken them, when she...

:previous: I second every single word you wrote, Iva. I couldn't have put it any better. :clap:

What traditions aren't they following anymore? I see a lot of traditions. They're attending the nobel price ceremony every year and also the opening of the parliament and Victoria day in july. Victoria is kind of an ambassador of the Arctic together with Haakon and Frederik, Silvia and Madeleine...

Well, we had a very exciting century for Germany (Monarchy, Weimarer Republic, Nazi Germany (unfortunatly), Democracy in two Germanys (even if the Democracy it was more in the name of the state of East Germany), Reunification (which still baffles me, because it wasn't a bloody one)). It's hard...

That's just what I meant with my last posting. So I don't see the need in abolishing a monarchy, that's a nice sign of a long lasting tradition. I like traditions. They're something like an anchor. And I think we all need an anchor in fast times like those we're living in today.

I don't understand all this talk about abolishing the monarchy. Why? What's wrong with it? Just so there'll be no-one to life of the taxpayers money? There will still be someone to represent the country, no matter if it is king or a president. And a Mr. Obama / Sarkozy / Wulf is getting paid by...

:previous: Oh please! When the last photo from her current visit to South-Africa was posted everyone was screaming why she wasn't interacting with the kids. Now she's right in the middle of them all and even carries one on her arms and it's still not good enough? Maybe there was just a...

Honestly, I don't think it's fair to compare Ema and Carl Philip moving in together to Sofia and Carl Philip moving in together. With Emma he was way younger than now, moving in together was a first-time for them both. It was new, it was exciting and it was a big move on the way to live your...

I can see what nascarlucy could mean with her statement. They could have avoided a lot of "what's" and "if's" and "CP is jealous of /angry at V, because she is CP and not he", "CP feels cheated", "CP is wasting his life because he was robbed of his rights" blablabla if the swedes would have been...

:previous: I don't see anything wrong with that. You wouldn't believe what amounts of studies I would study if I could afford them all. He can afford it so why shouldn't he learn all that what interests him. It's way better than wasting his live endless parties like a lot of sons/daughters of...

I'm sorry, but I'M not confusing celebrities (Sofia) and royals (Carl Philip). They're currently just a couple. They never talked about tying the knot, so why all this talk about her not being suitable as princess? It's irrelevant. She ISN'T a princess, NOR does she make nude photos nowadays...

Why always this "need"- and "social state"-excuse when it comes to how she earns her living? I don't get it. She choose this job because she wanted to be a model. I don't see something wrong with that. And because she wanted to be in the spotlight. But not even that is a bad thing. millions of...

Thanks! :flowers: Exactly! There ARE photos of her with her clothes on. A LOT to be honest. I've seen them and recognized them just like those "bad, bad" nude/bikini photos. But the clothes-photos don't make a good headline and/or story, so why should they print them (even if they're new...

:previous: You're right. A forum is the right place to have discussions and maybe my tone was a bit harsh. I didn't want to yell at anyone specifically. But I also think in a forum you should be fair and don't have intolerant prejudices. That includes users and topics IMO. And I'm sorry, but I...

It's her job. What's wrong with that? I knew this photo and I think she has a nice smile, a nice body and knows how to position herself for a nice photo. I'm so sick of all this Sofia-bashing. She couldn't do it right even if she would try. There would always be negative comments, no matter if...

Yes, that's right. That's Emma.
