From the Editor
Its been a year since I last did this job. as
substitute for our highly talented editor Lone.
You never quite know where to start, and in
fact if it will end with an acceptable edition for
you, our readers, you will notice that I cut it
back to just 16 pages rather than the 20 pages
of recent editions, after all I am not Lone and
just could not fill the last pages. I did end up
redoing the front page, as you can imagine,
after only a few hours earlier at Heimdal
discussing with Kim, how few chances the
Danes would have against all the talent out
there, however we totally underestimated the
power of the drums, and so I am happy say
Denmark won with a landslide as they say.
AND THANK YOU for all contributions and
please do support our advertisers.

George Brink or Brinch – old friends looking for you, where are you!
George is believed to have arrived in Brisbane with a friend Per in 1986, both trade
qualified bricklayers from Aarhus.
He came from Djursland, but did his trade apprenticeship in Aarhus with Per and then
they left for Australia.
George left behind friends at the “Latiner Bodegaen” in Aahus, where Birger, Henrik,
Niels, Torben used to meet with him and while having a drink settled the big issues of
day or at least tried. Well now Birger who works in IT and Torben, who also is a
bricklayer wants to catch-up, (did he not pay for the last round of beer?)
They have looked for the Brink family locally and out at Djursland with no results.
Birger, gætter George til nu at være omkring 50 år gammel, mens vennen Per kan være
lidt ældre, hvis nogle kender George eller Per så kontakt venligst Peter i klubben så vi
kan hjælpe vennerne i Aarhus.
So if you know of George please make contact back to Peter at Heimdal.

from 6 pm
Latiner Bodegaen, havde i halvfjerserne og ind i firserne en lille side
rolle sammen med bogcaféen Regnbuen, Fronthuset i Mejlgade m fl. Da
det var et af stederne, hvor de Danske Studenter Anarkister fra AUC og
støtter af RAF i Tyskland, mødtes og planlagde kampen mod det
kapitalistiske samfund, alt det var nok ved at være næsten glemt i 1986,
men ”kom op” da jeg søgte online for noget om Bodegaen.
Latiner Bodegaen er nu en Frisør Salon og jeg er ikke sikker på addressen,
og Fronthuset blev til Restaurant Gyngen og lå i ejendommen Mejlgade
53.
This is in reference to the story on George opposite, the picture shows a
street in the neighbourhood, where the Pub/Bar [Latiner Bodegaen] was
located, it was in the seventies/early eighties a meeting place for a group
of students aligned with RAF in Germany.

RAGNAROK – ELLERS KENDT SOM DEN STORE OVERSVØMMELSE I
BRISBANE 2011 RAMTE OGSÅ SAGA VIKINGS
Som mange af jer husker havde vi en veletableret vikinglandsby, men alt blev skyllet bort i den store
oversvømmelse i januar 2011. Siden da har vi haft travlt med genopbygningen af vores landsby, først
kom toiletbygning, køkken og bar i 2011, i 2012 fulgte det flotte langhus med borde og bænke.
Vikingerne er nu ved at lægge sidste hånd på smedjehuset og vi glæder os til at vise jer de nye
bygninger.

By Jytte Kronborg Pedersen
Much folkdancing has been happening on the floorboards at the Danish Club since February in
this our 21st year. We still meet up very happily twice a month ready to learn new folkdances or
giving learnt dances an enjoyable turn or a bit of polish. Thank goodness Lis does not give up
on us all!!
You would think perhaps, that we see enough of each other in the Group during practice night
but no, that is not the case at all. Every year our committee put their heads together and much
to our delight, conjure up a weekend away! Last year it was Hervey Bay which coincided with a
festival where we performed. This year it was Caloundra, a lovely spot within easy reach for
everyone. Our immediate thoughts were of course sea, sun and surf!
Arriving at our allocated cabins (the committee did very well there too!) with most of them
facing a very tranquil water, we set up home away from home. One patio of our cabins was
bigger than the others and was immediately claimed by the whole group as a great meeting
point for breakfasts, lunches and dinners. The local fish and chips shops did very well when we
converged on them depleting their stock considerably and all was consumed at this large patio
overlooking the water and at night a little singing and music could be heard from the said patio
without disturbing the peace.
Music was also heard during the day as we ‘claimed’ a small flat area near our cabins in the
middle of the holiday park. Here we frolicked by setting up the music or Kupaleja picking up
their instruments. In other words instead of dipping our toes in the waters of Caloundra, we
admired it from a distance and swung our feet instead on this little patch of claimed bitumen.
Warnings went out to the unsuspecting owners of caravans and cabins in our vicinity naturally.
And lo and behold the holiday makers moved their chairs closer to this unscheduled
‘entertainment’, even people out for a quiet walk stopped and looked over the fences, nobody
seemed to flee or pack up. On our last night we nearly had teary goodbyes from fellow campers
as, with our parting the following day, there would be no more music and dancing.
A very successful weekend away it was and who knows what the committee will come up with
next year? Well, we never know, but once this hard working committee put their heads together
and plot a course, we will be ready to go for another great weekend away.

”Manlydragonboat club Brisbane”
with Danish dynamite.
Our local Danish girl Pia Lisbeth Mitchell went with her Dragon Boat team to Penrith, west of Sydney and took out the
top place in the national competition. With 11 gold, 3 Silver and 2 Bronce medals it can’t get much better for the local
club.
The team will next go to Hungary as part of the 200+ group of paddlers, representing Australia there in late July this year.
Pia was interviewed by Maria Thuesen
Bleeg from SBS radio in Penrith, if you like
go to the Danish pages of SBS.com.au and
find the recorded interview. Pia is keen to
have more local Danes join the paddling
from Wynnum Manly Yacht club, “it’s great
fun and really good exercise for all ages,
the competitions are grouped by age so
you will have similar capabilities in your
boat as well as the one you compete
against”....she says.

You can find more information at the Manly club web-site here: www.manlydragons.com.au or speak to Pia next you see
her at the Danish Club.

One-Day “Creative Salon” in the city
WORKSHOP
“Painting with Thread”
The aim is to make sense of doing embroidery in 2013. Creative and free flowing embroidery where
patterns do not have to be strictly followed, but where you follow your mood and your senses. Being
mindful, taking time out to do handmade personal projects; embroidery is perfect for this and on the day
we will be focusing on your creativity.
A needle and thread, fabric and beads, we will be creating an illustration with embroidery. Just bring
yourselves and your creativity. Each student will be provided with materials, including possible design
templates to follow along with or use as an inspiration to expand from. All levels are welcome.
You will be taking home your own project, a work folder with inspiration, instructions and templates,
which enables you to continue at home.
Skill level:
No experience necessary

Solar Power As you can read about in this
edition we have our system installed and
connected, read the full article elsewhere
for more details, and yes we will follow up
with our results as we power along.
Membership still stand at 215 members.
Events Aprils Cafe Danmark was busy. We
sold out of bread and almost all pastry
went as well, the FolkRag event on May
18th had some very nice acts but we didn’t
have a lot of visitors, so we had plenty of
time to enjoy the entertainment.
Sct Hans Keep an eye out for the
advertisement here in the Newletter, we
are once again invited to attend the bunfire
and overnight camping if you so desire at
SAGA Vikinks little village on Byrnes Rd in
Joyner.
Raffles: The fantastic effort by Andy
continue to give good results, Thank you
Andy!
Money No formal update since our
treasurer is on leave, but yes we have paid
for the solar system since last update so
we should expect a bit of a dive in our
account balance.
Committee members We are down a few
due to resignations and really really would
welcome some help on the committee as
well as just for individual events/tasks.
New Committee members
The committee has been working all year on less than normal strength and now with
Merete departing with husband Doug and their kids to a great opportunity with Maersk
Oil and Gas – in Esbjerg! – we are another member short.
So we need 2 or 3 people, who are willing to join the committee and be part of the team
planning and executing the events we have at the club, and as we are growing in
numbers, the need for extra muscle grows accordingly.
We can also use the support from members able to participate on irregular basis.
I have spoken with many members and all seem to have been on the committee at some
stage and ‘done their duty’.
Well, the age of the most mature member of the current volunteer team is 81, so
evidently age is no barrier to participate and help in the kitchen, and if you are unable to
commit to a committee position, what is stopping you from offering to help the
committee at just 1 function per year?
The whole basis for the pricing of our food and drink is based on volunteers supporting
our functions, and I really believe that this also adds to the atmosphere in the club.
We don’t hire people from the street to prepare our food and clean our plates – we do it
ourselves as part of our community effort to keep Danish traditions and ‘hygge’ alive and
well.
So whether you can spare some time on a Friday or Saturday night to help or if you
would like to join the committee and participate in what is actually very interesting work
shaping the future of the club, please contact me.

More news!
Danish ecstasy in Malmø, Yes it has
happened again, Danish Emmelie de Forest
sang the winning melody accompanied by
two young male drummers. With a
combined 180 points from 17 countries
plus another 91 from the rest left no doubt
Emmelie had done it!
Danish expats have received good
news, the political right leaning party
“Venstre” has now voiced its support for a
change to Danish laws enabling
Danes to acquire dual citizenship,
staying Danish while also gaining a
citizenship in the country where they live.
“Venstre” is currently in the opposition side
of the Danish “Folketing” and can not affect
such change on its own, but the ruling
coalition of the Social democrats, Radikale
and SF have already, as part of their
coalition statement, a stated aim to
introduce such a change, making it quite
possible that change will come sooner
rather than later. Part of now a minority in
the Danish political landscape, The
“Conservative party” and the “Danish
Peoples Party” are still against the
proposed changes. According to Morten
Bødskov minister for justice, a law change
will be tabled in late 2013.
There are however many details in this and
if you want to stay updated, join one of the
several online forums where this is being
discussed. Read more on our web-site.
And what a year in which to win, it is now
50 years since Grethe & Jørgen Ingmann
won with the song “Dansevise”, the show
back then took only 90 minutes, today it
runs over 3 evenings.
And then only 13 years ago in year 2000,
Olsen Brothers again put Denmark into the
winning position with the song "Fly on the
Wings of Love”, our family toured Denmark
that summer in a rented Volvo and
constantly heard it played on the radio, or
maybe it was our own CD, can’t remember
any longer.
Copenhagen and Denmark has been
partying all weekend, including at “Tivoli
gardens” it will be a rough start Monday
morn for many.
48 Wind turbines off the coast near
Malmø have been out of action since May
15th, it has been guessed a ship’s anchor
has damaged a vital cable, but as it is,
Sweden lost a good opportunity to show off
a large working offshore wind farm during
the big “Eurovision Song Contest”.
Kastrup full body scanners installed
by Danish “skat” as a trial they will use it
to look for hidden drugs, on selected
arriving and departing passengers in the
Danish airport. The trial will go for 6 month
initially and involve an only 10 sec scan of
people suspected of smuggling, so not
everyone will be required to use the
machine.
Danish medical practitioners are now
next in line to have work conditions and
contracts dictated by the government, this
comes only shortly after the Danish public
schools were in a “Lockout” all of April with
students and their parents re-learning to
stay in close contact outside weekends and
regular holidays. This conflict ended when
the government dictated settlement and a
new set of conditions under which the
teachers are managed and work. Doctors
are now next in line as their negotiations
has proved just as difficult.

Heimdal’s new photovoltaic solar system, installed
Our rooftop solar system as can
be seen in this picture has finally
been installed and is working.
The system is a 32 panel system.
Each panel is a 190W Photovoltaic
High Efficiency Module, with a
Weight of 15kg, and 25 year
power output warranty.
The nominal 37.8 Volt from the
panels is feed into an SMA 5000W
Inverter, this in turn converts the
low voltage into a 240V output,
with a rated efficiency of 97.0%.
Now only time will tell how much power output we actually will produce and feed back
into the electricity grid, for now we are connected directly via the existing meter, a
new special metering device will be installed by Origin/Energex as soon as they see fit.
As is the case with most of the grid connected systems installed, power is only
generated as long as the grid is working and providing a 240 Volt supply. Should for
any reason Origin/Energex supply fall out, the rooftop system will stop generating
power also, this means that we don’t have an independent supply and is still very
much reliant on Origin/Energex for power. This is a safety feature and like I said the
norm for grid connected systems, the alternative to this would require us to also have
a set of batteries and some other system able to disconnect us from the grid in case of
power outages, a much more complicated and expensive system for now.
So until Origin/Energex installs the new meter the value of the each Kw is just the
power price we would have been charged. The meter is just running in reverse with
our power feed into the grid, however after installation of the new meter we will be
paid 44 cent per Kilowatt and it gets much more interesting for us.
A realistic number for how much power output to expect will depend on how much sun
we get, the direction of the panels relative to where the sun is during the day, and off
course the actual efficiency of the whole system. If we have 6 hours of good sunlight
on a given day from the right direction, and set the efficiency at say 50% we can
expect about 6 x 6Kw x .5 per day multiplied by the 44 cent/Kw and we have
approximately $8.- a day. This is a conservative figure and we may actually do much
better, but you will have to wait for our next report for an update on this, and the
actual numbers.
