Skinny Welsh bloke with (Dennis Tayloresque)glasses somebody (Nick) Price !! Watched it on youtube a few weeks back. Used to love the Whirlwind. Remember he was interviewed once before the World Championship and he said he was in the best form of his life, practising every day, given up drink etcetera. The day before he was on the p155 with Ronnie Wood at Sandown and they done four bottles of champagne between them !

My Wife's Grandad!
If by way of an extraordinary coincidence i am wrong, can you tell me if it was the name of an operation?

It was an operation.

Read about this recently in one of the Telegraph supplements - it was a massive forgery operation, designed to cause ruinous inflation by dumping massive quantities of the forged notes over England.
It failed because the camps where the currency was stored were overtaken by the Allied invasion. The notes were dumped in a lake, where they remain to this day.
Much of the forging was done by Jewish prisoners, who were lucky to escape execution.
