That is a work of pure genius - translating all
the British place names into pseudo-German ones

"Morden" should have become "Murders".

Except that's replacing a German word with an English one, rather than
vice-versa, but well spotted, anyway!

I am surprised to find that the Germans have a word "Rappen" which
means "black horse".

I didn't know that either: I was expecting Schwarz Pferd.

There are some truly *appalling* puns as well: Speckbaum (Bacontree) is
Becontree, Zurucktuten (Back tuten) is Tooting Bec and Ganz Geborn (Whole
born) is Holborn.
