Go on. admit it. How many puzzlers took a first look, saw Moss' Cooper, and thought Lake Garda?

My "Black Books" begin in 1954, but anyone who had the previous edition could have presumably got the full grid. The website gives a lot of information but the book is better.

I did, for one!
A man whom I knew in later times as our agent in Italy was employed by BP as interpreter to the Moss family on that occasion!
