I found it in the Chambers on-line dictionary.

I was aware that Nab was a hat and confirmed nabe.

Aq's topi sounds much better, but here is the Chambers entry-

This is all I get on that site, K.

Sorry, no entries for nabe were found.

Might kepi be another possibility?

[kayakamina]

Aq I'm sure your Topi is correct ...Bean(head) baked by the sun would need a TOPI.

On that Chambers site I typed in Bean to see what anagrams came up and got the NABE which they confirmed was a valid word. That's all academic anyway- you are correct.

Cheers K

Just to let you all know Daij jumped ship to crosswords half an hour ago and posted the correct clue with letters and got the answer Topi, and neer a thanks to you all yet

K, I've had this many times with Word Wizard. They offer you a word which, when played back, they refuse to recognise!
