Brian's Bits

By Kanyl

Oliver's gone.

       WAY back in the mists of history, late 70s/early 80s I saw this as "Oliver's View".  The late Geof Howe told some, now forgotten, tale of an "Oliver", who dies young and it was, allegedly, in his memory.
        Later, I spotted it as "The Acorn"; it took a few seconds before the Penny dropped?  Not that the "O" had dropped, as I thought, but it had become an Acorn.
       Unfortunately Oliver's View was pre-Blip.  This must be fairly recent "~~ Maps" hasn't caught up yet.
