No one seems to know yet what Brexit actually means, least of all the British Government, however this link provides some clues as to how British expats may be affected.http://www.ecfr.eu/page/-/ECFR_176_-_HOW_BREXIT_COULD_HURT_EXPATS.pdf

I am looking for a Danish teacher to come to my house twice a week for 2 hours each time. I am a total beginner. Thanks in advance.

Hello, I will travel to the Aude this summer. Me and my wife are looking to buy in a (hopefully inexpensive) property with a limited budget. We will be focusing on places such as Quillan (which seems picturesque from photos), Axat and Esperaza. I have also heard of Chalabre. I was hoping I could ask you for some opinions on reasons to go for one or the other, or any others from these mentioned. We look for a town that should have some amenities (maybe a restaurant or two, supermarket or similar), while still being picturesque. Quillan seems to be an interesting option, but I'd love to hear opinions! BestJuan

I have been invited to a friend's wedding in Cyprus, a village near Limassol to be precise. What are my best options for flying there from Copenhagen guys?

Can anyone recommend an English speaking wedding planner in Copenhagen please?

Hi everyone, we are looking for city break ideas no more than 2 hours' drive from Copenhagen. What are our best options please?

Hello, Does anyone know of pilates classes given in English in Copenhagen or Hellerup? Thank you! Suzanne

A new campaign group has recently formed in the UK called WASPI (Women Against State Pension Inequality Campaign) to "seek fair transitional arrangements for all women born on or after 6th April 1951 who have unfairly borne the burden of the increase to the State Pension Age (SPA). Hundreds of thousands of women have had significant changes imposed on them with a lack of appropriate notification. The 1995 Conservative Government’s Pension Act included plans to increase women’s SPA to 65, the same as men’s. Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI), agree with equalisation, but don’t agree with the unfair way the changes were implemented – with little/no personal notice (1995/2011 Pension Acts), faster than promised (2011 Pension Act), and no time to make alternative plans. Retirement plans have been shattered with devastating consequences." A crowdfunding exercise raised enough to pay for legal advice and barristers are currently considering potential action. A petition has been signed by more than 21,000 people since the 20th October. Yesterday it was announced that the Parliamentary Select Committee for Work and Pensions will be seeking submissions from women born in the 50's. "The Work and Pensions Committee have launched an inquiry into the new State Pension introduced in April 2016. Concerns have been raised that many of those who will be affected by the changes do not know enough about the changes or exactly what they will mean for their pensions." More details here http://www.parliament.uk/business/committees/committees-a-z/commons-select/work-and-pensions-committee/news-parliament-2015/state-pension-launch-15-16/ I am sure that there are many of you (like me) who are affected by these changes. You may want to consider signing the petition and asking your family and friends to do the same herehttps://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/110776 You can find more information about the campaign and read some of the heartbreaking stories about women who have been left without the money they are entitled to herehttps://www.facebook.com/WASPI-Women-Against-State-Pension-Inequality-Campaign-877054125688402/?fref=ts Please pass this information to the women you know who were born in the 50's!

I'm thinking about a 1-year (possibly longer) relocation to Copenhagen. I'm an avid cyclist and am wondering if there is good cycling for a road cyclist around the city. I know Copenhagen is bike friendly for commuters but I need some long training rides further out. Will this be possible and what kinds of terrain can I expect?  Thanks in advance.

There are a lot of Christmas Markets around town with Danish Christmas specialities, gift ideas and music. Bring the family along and experience Danish Christmas. 

All the Christmas lights are on in Copenhagen and it is a very lovely sight. At the d'Angleterre Hotel at Kongens Nytorv they have 50.000 christmas lights on the facade of the historic building. 

Would anybodyknow if there will be any international authors present at the book festival this weekend and also if there will be interviews in English? I love book festival but I am not sure if it is only Danish authors.

Remember that tomorrow is Culture Night with lots of events all over the town. Go to the What's On and check the website for a great experience.

Hi, is there an English speaking comedy club or theatre in Copenhagen?
