Years ago when the (BTM) TV series were being aired on British TV, my wife went to Australia to see a friend, who'd emigrated there.

She had instructions to bring me a hat back, so brought me a Snowy River (another model)

Upon finally getting internet at (the previous 'BTM Towers') I did some research & found out what the hat actually was.

A bit more digging revealed an on-line supplier (as British importers were quoting £100, 3 - 6 months delivery & no shaping)

Strand Hatters in Sydney delivered one to my door (Via air-mail) in 6days, shaped & for less than £60!!

When 'Small-Child' was toddling & starting to talk, whenever 'BTM' was on TV, the cry would go up & the  finger pointed at the screen;

"Daddy!!"

The name stuck, as the mother-in-law called it whenever I wore the hat.

Hence, it became the screen-name on every forum, I've joined (even non-Landy ones)
