From the Editor
After a very busy period in the lead-up to
the festival in September it’s been lovely to
have some quiet time in October before the
Christmas season starts. I’m trying to
master ‘Mailchimp’ to use for club emails,
you’ll see the results eventually. Also,
Soren, Bente and I will be presenting
Danish food at two events by the Brisbane
City Council libraries at Mitchelton (1
November 2014) and Ashgrove (8
November 2014) and then of course we
have the Christmas ‘Store Kolde Bord’ – on
Sunday 9 November. After that we’ll be on
the fast track towards Christmas, with an
extra holiday for Brisbanites on Friday 14

Leif Panduro
Leif Thormod Panduro blev født den 18. april
1923 på Frederiksberg i København. Han var
uddannet tandlæge, men kunne ikke finde ud
af økonomien og gik konkurs.
Fra 1962 kunne han dog leve af sit
forfatterskab.
Leif Panduro modtog Kritikerprisen i 1963, De
gyldne laurbær i 1970 og Det danske
Akademis litteraturpris i 1971.
Han døde den 16. januar 1977.
Bøger af Leif Panduro
1957 - Av min guldtand (roman)

1965 - Den gale mand (roman)
1966 - Vejen til Jylland (roman)

Hård barndom
1970 - Daniels anden verden (roman)
Leif Panduro voksede op hos slægtninge og
på børnehjem. Hans far blev skudt af modstandsbevægelsen under krigen, fordi han
var nazisympatisør. Hans mor blev sindssyg.
1971 - Bella og Et godt liv (tv-spil)
1971 - Vinduerne (roman)
Denne opvækst var medvirkende til, at
Panduro led af angstanfald, og at han i en
periode gik i psykoanalyse.
1972 - Amatørerne (roman)
Bøger som terapi
1973 - Den ubetænksomme elsker (roman)
Hans bøger blev en måde for ham at bearbejde sine problemer på. Gennem de psykiske problemer han selv havde, udviklede han
en helt særlig evne til at forstå andre
mennesker.
1974 - Den bedste af alle verdener (noveller)
Han udtalte fx, at han følte stor medlidenhed
med mennesker, der løj. De gjorde det
nemlig, fordi de havde et problem, der gjorde,
at de blev nødt til at lyve.
1972 - Selma, William og Benny (tre tv-spil)
1975 - Høfeber (roman)
1975 - Bertram og Lisa og Anne og Paul (to
tv-spil)
1977 - Louises hus (tv-spil)

Kendt og elsket
Panduro skrev både romaner og tv-spil.
Begge genrer gjorde ham meget kendt og
elsket som forfatter.

Historien om Tom’s Skildpadde
Rygtet siger, at den oprindelige Skildpadde er baseret på en tegning af Vilhelm
Hansen, der også er far til den berømte tegneseriefigur Rasmus Klump. Tegningen af
Skildpadden var Vilhelms første udkast til netop tegneserien Rasmus Klump. Forlaget
kunne i første omgang ikke bruge forslaget og forkastede idéen. Vilhelm var dog selv
godt tilfreds med tegningen, og Toms fik fingrene i den og den første chokoladeskildpadde blev udviklet. Senere kom Skildpadden alligevel med i Rasmus Klump-serien i
en birolle som Pilskadde.
Mangel på råvarer i efterkrigsårene
Efter 2. verdenskrig begyndte der at komme flere kakaobønner til Danmark, så
chokoladefabrikkerne kunne begynde at se på en fornyelse af deres sortiment.
Toms gik efter produkter, der lagde mindst muligt beslag på de dyrebare
kakaobønner. Samtidig ville man udvikle produkter, der kunne tage markedsandele
fra konkurrenterne. Det gjaldt nemlig om at få så mange rationeringsmærker som
muligt, for de dannede grundlag for bevillingen af råvarer.
Frøen som inspiration
Galle & Jessen havde stor succes med deres chokolade Frø. Toms lod sig inspirere af
denne succes og besluttede at fremstille en Skildpadde med romcreme, da chokolade
med en anelse spiritus var populært.
Skildpadde på 16 g
I oktober 1948 kunne sælgerne fra Toms præsentere en vaskeægte nyhed – en 16 g
skildpadde, som kunne sælges for 20 øre. Den fandt hurtigt sin plads i forretningernes sortiment. Det var nu ikke nogen kunst, enhver nyhed blev modtaget med
kyshånd!
Drømmen om at stjæle markedsandele fra Galle & Jessen blev ikke rigtig til noget, for
det viste sig hurtigt, at de to produkter kunne
sælges side om side. Dog hoppede frøen lystigt af
sted ud af forretningerne i samme omfang som
tidligere, mens skildpadden kravlede sindigt
bagefter med en fornuftig omsætning.
Chokoladerationering slut
I 1950 stoppede chokoladerationeringen og
chokoladefabrikkerne kunne indlede en decideret
konkurrence. Toms havde blandt andet fokus på de markedsandele, der kunne flyttes
fra frø til Skildpadde.
Som tiden gik, forblev mønsteret det samme, Toms havde et acceptabelt salg af
Skildpadder; men Galle & Jessen bevarede deres altdominerende rolle med deres frø.
Andre firmaer drømte om at støde frøen væk fra tronen. Anthon Berg barslede med
en mariehøne, Cloetta med en hare.
Toms prøvede endnu en gang midt i 50’erne ved at relancere Skildpadderne i en flot
disk-venlig salgskarton samtidig med, at der blev produceret en ny gaveæske i et
moderne design. Lige meget hjalp det, Galle & Jessen forblev kongen af det lille dyr
med creme i maven. Alle udmeldte deres ”smådyr” undtagen Toms, som trods alt
havde et produkt, der udgjorde så mange tons, at Skildpadden fik lov at blive.
Toms flytter til Ballerup
I 1960 og årene derefter fik Toms på grund af fabrikkens udflytning til Ballerup meget
andet at tænke på. I 1965 kom skildpadden tilbage i søgelyset, da dens salgstal
begyndte at dale. Problemstillingen var nu en helt anden. Man skulle ikke bekrige
frøen, men finde en løsning for at bevare egen markedsandel. Konklusionen blev, at
folk havde fået lidt flere penge mellem hænderne, så der var basis for at fremstille
flere 50 øres produkter.
Kæmpe Skildpadden blev udviklet
Toms besluttede, at en Skildpadde i dobbelt størrelse måtte være sagen. Dog mente
man, at en stor Skildpadde med romcreme ikke var børnevenlig. Derimod havde man
succes med en karamelfyldning, og i 1967 kunne Toms præsentere Kæmpe
Skildpadden på 28 g med både karamel- og romcreme. Den nye Skildpadde solgte
ikke så godt i starten, men efter at man pakkede den i den velkendte stanniol
indpakning blev den hurtigt populær, og lige så hurtigt fik den sit øgenavn ”den
gravide Skildpadde”.
De to Skildpadder solgtes nu side om side, men mens Kæmpe Skildpaddens
popularitet voksede støt, sygnede Skildpadden på 16 g hen og blev taget ud af
sortimentet i 1973.
Den klassiske Galle & Jessen Frø nåede at blive 100 år i 2002, hvorefter den blev
afløst af en Toms Frø i større udgave, men en anden fyldning, som levede frem til
2011.
I 2004 udviklede Toms en Mini Skildpadde på 10gr. Fyldet er det samme som i
Kæmpe Skildpadden.

Study & Stay in Australia?
Your door to the best in Australian Education & Training….
IAE Study In Australia is owned and operated by a Dane – Riborg Andersen – a former teacher and senior
government employee, with a strong background in both Danish and Australian education and training. We
are a professional International Education Agent, with over 18 years’ experience.
Did you know that when Denmark decided that it wanted every senior secondary student to have an
international experience, the Danish Undervisningsministeriet invited Riborg, as the only Australia
representative, to run workshops for Danish secondary schools seeking to establish relationships with
international counterparts, to encourage their students to have an international study experience? Using our
knowledge and expertise, we help Danish (and many other international students) to come and study in
Australia. Do you have family or friends in Denmark wanting to come and study in Australia?
We are here to help.
 For individual students, we can help you to find a suitable school, college or university taking into
account a student’s academic background, family/friendship ties in Australia, their strengths and
interests, budget and aims. We place students into primary and secondary schools, TAFEs and
universities all over Australia.
 For Danish schools, colleges and universities, we can help you to identify suitable partner
institutions in Australia, and develop successful Study Abroad programs. Over the years, we have
established such programs between Australian institutions and schools/colleges in Aalborg, Aarhus,
Skanderborg, Silkeborg, Køge and Roskilde among other places.
Tell us what your aims are, and we can find the best way forward. Did you know Australia now offers a 485
Graduate Visa for students graduating from any 2-year Australian Bachelor or Master’s degree, and wanting
to stay in Australia for another 2 years to work and/or play? Want to know more? Ask us. And the best
news …We do not charge any service fee, as we are paid by the Australian schools, colleges and
universities. We look forward to hearing from you.

‘Fiercely feminine and deeply powerful’ – Agnes Obel
Marking the first time the talented songstress will tour Australia, Danish singer/songwriter Agnes
Obel brings her masterful skills behind the piano and in front of the mic to audiences at the Old
Museum.
With her mother a brilliant musician and her father a collector of instruments, it’s only natural that
Agnes mastered the piano from a very young age. By the release of debut album Philharmonics in
2010 Agnes was announced as a force to be reckoned with. Drawing comparisons to Joni Mitchell,
Carole King and admitted influence French composer Erik Satie, Philharmonics sold over 450,000
copies across Europe. It achieved Platinum status in France and Belgium, Gold in Holland and five
times platinum in her native Denmark, where it spent seven consecutive weeks at #1.
Her second album Aventine cemented Agnes’ place as a masterful composer, perfectly framing
her piano and vocals with cello for a deeper, richer sound that never compromised the delicate
intimacy that had made her debut so unique. Aventine once again scored Agnes a #1 in her
homeland and reached top ten albums charts all through Europe, also soaring to #28 on the US
Billboard Top Heatseekers chart. If critics weren’t already paying attention to Agnes, they were
now, as Aventine collected near universal acclaim.
Agnes is as adept a performer as she is a composer and once on-stage can translate the intimacy
and tension of her harmonies into a spellbinding display of raw talent and a master class of live
performance. Having mesmerised audiences throughout Europe, Agnes Obel’s Australian
performances are a rare opportunity to see a remarkable talent in an exceptional venue.
Presented by Frontier Touring
Agnes Obel will be performing at the Old Museum in Gregory Terrace,
Spring Hill, on Tuesday 25 November 2014

Free lecture: The History of
Norwegians in Australia
Come and listen to historian and author Fredrik Larsen Lund!
Friday 24 October @ 7pm. Venue: St. Andrew’s Lutheran Church, 25
Wickham Tce, Brisbane.
Vikings Down Under: Based on his brand-new book Nedenunder
og hjem (Down Under and Back Again), Fredrik will present the
history of Norwegian settlement in Australia.
During an engaging and fun one-hour talk you will hear
stories about convicts and explorers, sailors and settlers,
soldiers and nurses, murderers and prostitutes – and many
other common men and women.
Fredrik has gathered information about Norwegians in Australia for four
years, and he would now like to share his results and stories with you all.
For more information visit www.reisefredrik.com. The lecture will be given in
English. Anyone with an interest in the topic is welcome to this free event!
Read it!
330 pages full of original stories
about Norwegians in Australia.
Historian Fredrik Larsen Lund has spent
years researching Norwegian immigration
and settlement on the Australian continent.
His book Nedenunder og hjem (Vega Publ.
Co., Oslo) is released in Norwegian in
September 2014. It is the most comprehensive work ever published on the topic.
If you come to the lecture, you can buy
the book for a discounted net price of
AUD 50. There are a limited number of
copies available, so please order one for
yourself by sending an email to
[email protected].
In cooperation with the Norwegian Club of QLD
Supported by
Dansk for Børn
Danish for Kids
Lessons for kids aged 4 – 6 start on Saturday mornings
9am till 10 am on 11th October at Camira.
These structured lessons are a fun way for young children to learn
Danish through songs, games, books, flashcards and activities. It is a
language program pedagogically designed for small children.
The children have so much fun that they don’t even know that they
are learning.
For more information contact Pia (Danish teacher for 15 years)
on 0408 733 160 or [email protected]
How you can help your child learn Danish:

If your child knows some Danish, read Danish story books to them. If he/she
doesn't know how to speak Danish, you can read fairy tales by replacing
some words with Danish words.
 Music is universal. Play Danish CDs in the car or at home as background
music. Studies have shown that even background music can increase
children's vocabulary.
 Playing games like hide and seek by counting in Danish.
 Children love watching cartoons. You can find tons of Danish cartoons
available online.
One of the best ways of practising Danish is giving your child opportunities to
interact with other kids who can speak Danish. Join the Danish Playgroup who
meet at the Danish Club every Friday, attend Sunday School at the Danish Church
at Mt Gravatt or join the kids’ Danish classes.
