  • HCP: September 2010

    September is here, and with it, comes a new version of the Heir Consort Work Project.

    This month has revealed the difficulty in tracking the schedules. An event, which for some was considered official enough to put it on the schedule, was not for others. I am, of course, talking about the Greek wedding.

    To make it more equal for all, I have therefore also added that event to the numbers of the princesses whose calendars did not include it. If one of them has it as an official event, the rest of them should also have it counted, in my opinion.

    I have also tried similarly to follow that statement with other events that may not have been included on the calendars, but have included cameras or patronages in some way, and where similar events have been added to other royal calendars.

    If anyone wants access to the calendar where I’m tracking things, just let me know 🙂

  • HCP: August 2010

    It’s August, time for new beginnings and a new round of ”Who’s done how much, lately”.

    I’ve been tallying up the scheduled appearances of the Heir Consorts of Europe for July – I’m keeping track in a Google Calendar, if you’re interested to see the details – and here are the results of the televote… er… calendar count. (more…)

  • Heir Consort Project

    Earlier, I had a project I called The Crown Princess Work Project, wherein I tallied the activities of the Crown Princesses of Europe. The project came about after much discussion in various forums about the level of activity on the Crown Princesses.

    But with the addition of a male to the group who’re married to the Heirs to the thrones of Europe, a reinvention of the project demanded a gender-neutral name. Hence, the Heir Consort Project.

    Here is how it works:
