King Olav of Norway at White Hart Lane, 30th October 1965, where he watched his favourite team Tottenham Hotspur play against West Bromwich Albion. Spurs won 2-1. The king has lit a celebratory cigar. Who the lady on the king's left is, is not known by the photograph description.
Seems like a good chap. Wanted to stay behind during the nazi occupation while the government went in exile I heard.
No idea he was a Spurs fan!

Married his first cousin! :mourweird:
