Sowerbutt's Fortune

"One more point. One of those steel drums was said to contain forged pound notes of various denominations. We calculate a drum of that size would hold many thousands of forged pounds, something we have always feared being used by the Jerries to try and wreck our economy.

“The police say the rest of the notes must have been destroyed in the raid. When they searched the site, there were no banknotes or burnt paper. Piles of ash, but that could have been anything. 
“However, if there were to be any left, I don’t want them to make a nuisance of themselves. It would give the fuddy-duddies in Threadneedle Street a heart attack if they appeared on the open market. Understood?” http://www.amazon.co.uk/Colour-Lemon-Surrender-1940-ebook/dp/B008USR7FA
