Fashion, Bumps – What Royalty-Watchers Don’t Like to Read
Of course I don’t expect the media to put everything online. But there are articles online about royals that you really wonder about: why have they been published at all. British media for example can go nuts when it is about writing about royalty, especially their own. I am certain many of the articles we […]
My newest book and magazine
Nothing is more fun than walking into your hallway and find some royal mail on the floor. Today was one of these days! On the left the new yearbook 2017 of the Dutch royal magazine “Vorsten” with almost 200 pages full with photos about the royal year 2017. And that does also include other royal […]

How could I forget I bought one more magazine and a royal book in Denmark. I don’t have all the Danish royal yearbooks, but I come close. Luckily a friend of mine bought “Kongehuset 2015” for me, and all I had to do was pick it up when I was in Denmark earlier this month. […]
My Favourite Danish Magazine
I can’t help it, but when I am in Denmark, about the first thing I do is buying myself the Billed Bladet. THE magazine to read when you’re interested in the (Danish) royals, even when sometimes it is a bit gossipy. It is a weekly magazine with lots of reports and a TV-magazine, that I […]
Royal Diary
Vorsten Magazine this year decided not to publish a royal diary for the year 2015. Luckily BacktoBasiX BV Publishing thought otherwise. They worked together with royalty watcher Sophie Ragas, who is the moderator of the Dutch royalty forum All Things Royal and the result is wonderful. If you really have a lot of appointments the […]
How do you manage your royal collection?
I am sure this sounds pretty familiar to lots of other collectors with just limited space in their house. Once in a while I look around in my house and think it is really time to clean up the mess. That moment came again this week. Piles of magazines and other stuff collected in the […]
