Must be even smaller than Daresbury then. They don't even have a
synchrotron!

Here's an experiment:
Find a blindfold and put it on. Oh, but before you do that, take a
map of England and place it on a dartboard.
Now take 56066 darts and throw them at the map on the board.
Take off the blindfold and investigate where the darts hit. Did you
hit all the towns and cities? You hit London, Birmingham and Leeds
almost certainly. But what about Brighton, did you get that? How
about Clitheroe, was that hit? (Does Clitheroe count anyway or is
that just another part of Preston?)
I hope that that provides you some with insight.

I discovered recently that there is a little town/village called
"Holton" just outside of Oxford. I doubt it would have been hit by
one of Paul's darts as I, myself, was completely unaware of its
existence until I was looking at a "local" map of Oxford only last
month. It is an amazingly little place. Only one road, one church
and a village hall with my name on it. Perhaps in the grand scheme of
things, "Holton" is not worthy of much note, but it was still very
interesting to me.
