Summary of article in Billed Bladet #37, 2013.
Mary til Gatsby-party i London - Mary to Gatsby-party in London.
Written by our man in town Ulrik Ulriksen.
Restaurant owner, Søren Jessen, turned 50 the other day and on that occasion he had invited a handful of guests - quite a few actually...
The theme of the party was The Roaring 20's and everybody had suited up accordingly. One of them being Mary who arrived accompanied by a manager from Georg Jensen, Ulrik Garde Due.
The guests had been asked to arrived at the posh restaurant, Lombarde Street 1, between 13-15 and Mary arrived at 14.30. - You'll win no prize for guessing who owns the restaurant, located in Londons financial district.
Here the guests enjoyed a late lunch ending a little past 17.00 when there was made room for a live band. The band mainly played dance hits and the music wasn't from the 20's but rather the 80's, but the dancefloor was crowded.
The music later changed to sould and blues and climaxed in salsa.
An English guest who was out for a breath of fresh air confided to our reporter that the party was great, everybody was dancing.
Around 22.00 people locked outside to watch a spectacular fireworks display. - Not because of this birthday however but from another party nearby.
Mary left the party at 23.30.
Mary was far from the only one who came to the party without a spouse.
Among the guests were:
Christian and Elisabeth Buchwald.
Princes Pavlos and Nikolaos - no wives.
Rebecca and Johan Wedell-Wedellsborg.
Peter Heering.
Rory Fleming.
Malou and Søren Skeel.
Christoffer Carstenskiold - husband to Ellen Hillingsøe.
Ditlev Ahlefeldt-Lauvig.
Dorthe Wedell-Wedellsborg. - Half the Wedell-clan seems to have been there!
Martin Jørgensen - without his Alexandra.
- So Mary was surrounded by friends and familiar faces.
There was however some drama.
Two intoxicated persons committed some vandalism in the underground before deciding that they wanted to join the party. That led to a discussion at the rear entrance of the restaurant and here one of them hit out at one of the British protection officers allocated to Mary. They were quickly neutralised and taken away by the police.
Frederik as you know was in Argentina. And here he and other members of the IOC posed with some tango dancers. Frederik posed for a while and then cracked up - presumably he couldn't see himself as a convincing tango-dancer...
