Palle Høybye autografer - autographs Updated: 15 JAN 2012

J.A.S. Philson finished an email to me on 13 January 2012 in this way:
PS One amusing detail comes to mind.
When I was being interrogated by Palle Hoybye in a little room at the Daugaard Inn. A respectful knock at the door, revealed a policeman reporting in.
Followed by a word or two exchanged between Palle and the policeman, with Palle giving his accept...
The policeman then produced a scrap of paper and asked me for my autograph! - and withdrew.
A few minutes later the same thing was repeated, several times.
Eventually one man could not find a piece of paper but, not to be denied the autograph requested that I sign on the edge of his Identity Card!
He quipped that his wife would not know to whom she was married, when he showed it to his wife, that evening!
I was amazed by the informality on this occasion, knowing Palle Hoybye for whom I have always had the highest admiration.
That was a very personal insight into the relationship between Palle and his men.
