Following the thread on Brazilian hat makers, the poster asked where Potter's Bar was. I went through the links on Genuki to Potter's Bar and found the facility to check parishes within a three mile redius. I recognised none of them, so I expanded the circle to 10 miles and found that it was within ten miles of.............. Blackheath in Kent! Intrigued, I clicked on multimap, to discover that Blackheath is.......... plump in the middle of King George's reservoir! You learn something new every day!

Aren't Brazilian hats those ones with big brims and strings handing down all round with nuts attached?
