Huge thanks, Mark, for pulling off this amazing event! Everything ran like clockwork, and the visits? Absolutely top-notch! Even the weather played along—seriously, do you have a hotline to Mother Nature? 😉 These are memories we’ll be bragging about for a long time!
Finally made it home! It’s a long way to Struer from Australia.
First of all thank you to Mark for organising the event and shepherding us all around Struer. It must have been like herding cats some of the time.
A big thank you to Jette and all at Bang & Olufsen for the excellent factory tour – it far surpassed our expectations of what we would see on the tour.
Thank you to Fleming for his Danish language lessons. I’m sure I managed to mangle the pronunciation of nearly every word. Luckily Denmark is more proficient in English than we are in Danish.
My highlight at the factory was the listening room. Absolute bonus I managed to score the ‘Kirk’ chair for the full force of all the speakers. Was absolutely blown away with the sound and the way it just wrapped around me me. I must admit that I had ‘Tom’s Diner’ by Suzanne Vega on repeat in my head for about a week afterwards.
Finally I must apologise for not attending the final dinner on the Friday night. I came down with a shocker of the a cold and it knocked me for six. I did intend to head the the Grand on Saturday morning to say goodbye but felt like crap. Hopefully I didn’t pass it on to any Beoworlders – Suzie did come down with it about four days later so I was popular….
Great to meet everyone. We had a brilliant time.
Peter & Suzie
Edit : I did try and attach some photos but obviously that didn’t work. I’ll give it another go shortly.

Glad you managed to shake it off, even if you did pass it to Suzie 🤣

T.W.G: Your photo colletion gives the impression that your group had a great time in Struer. Next time I hope to get the same luck as 2012 …
