Australians - do you care about Mary, princess of Denmark

Australians - do you care about Mary, princess of Denmark?
I couldn't care less. She left our country to live in Denmark. Yet she's all over the news and magazines. Why would I give a hoot about someone who left my country?

Helllll NO! i don't. She was from tasmania anyways so no wonder she wanted to leave. Don't like her and would not want her life for a million dollars, I would off myself if i had to live with all that posh royal cr@p.
2 :
I can't believe that any Australian would give a hoot about ANY royal of any country regardless of where they came from originally. All royals are centuries past their use by dates. So no, I don't care about her.
3 :
As far as the constant media exposure and hype mainly in gossip magazines, no. Hence I wouldnt buy any of that trash. As far as her representing Australia well on the global stage (she seems to be doing a good job public relations-wise and that reflects well on Tas and Aus), yes. While I wouldnt go looking for news about Australians abroad, I do care that those in the spotlight for whatever reason represent us positively.
4 :
Yes I do,she is a beautiful lady who has a good clean image unlike the British royals & a good ambassador for Australia overseas.I just hope her 'too handsome' husband doesn't break her heart.I gather he is a bit of a playboy.
5 :
I think as an Australian Mary has shown grace and poise and that as Australian's we are able to fit in anywhere. The Danish royal family were lucky that Fred chose her rather than a european in bred.
6 :
No I couldn't care less about her, Mary renounced her Australian citizenship when she married Prince Frederik and it really irks me when the Australian media refer to her as our Australian princess.
7 :
Nope, I couldn't care less, even though she's from my home state.

What kinds of clothes do I need while living in Denmark from February to June?
I am studying abroad near Copenhagen but I don't know how to dress for the cold weather. What kind of coat will I need? rain-proof? What is the style there?

You will need warm clothes first of all, it tends to rain a bit but you should be more worried about the wind. Statistically there is only 7 days a year without wind, so you need wind proof clothes (especially in the winter when the wind is so cold). Greenlandic people often say they freeze more in Denmark because of the wind. You definitely need a warm coat, preferably not too tight so you can at least wear a thick sweater underneath for when it's really cold. Knitted sweaters are something you need too. There is no particular style as such, you can wear pretty much what you like. I don't think Danish people are all that stylish although some probably like to think that we are :-) Jeans and a sweater would be fine in the winter. If you wear skirts wear two pairs of pantyhose, I often wear a pair of regular pantyhose for my inner stockings and a pair of all wool pantyhose on top. Or wear pantyhose and leggings on top.

found this from Ministry of Foreign Affairs http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:FQmoPFAmHxMJ:www.netpublikationer.dk/um/8718/html/chapter08.htm+filippinere+i+danmark&cd=4&hl=da&ct=clnk&gl=dk "Ifølge Danmarks Statistik(census bureau) bor der 6.146 filippinere i Danmark"
3 :
Too many.
4 :
I am not sure, but a good source is a blog written by a Filipino woman who lives in Denmark: http://filipinamom.com/ Regards, Paula
5 :
The 6,146 statistic given by the Immigration service is only those who were given the residence permits or immigrants and their offprings which includes me but how about those who are holding the danish citizenship I think they are not included. And how about the au pairs whose permit last only 18 months. 2007 statistics shows that there are 1610 Filipinos au pairs. There are also Filipinos expatriates those who work in the UN, embassies, and other big companies. So I think we are around 10,000 now or more.
