One of them took a liking to my wife, always appearing w...

Left of #1 on a German keyboard pressing shift gives you the degree symbol: °
To the right of the Ü there is a key that has +*~ but I don't know how you get that on top of an n.

I was told* the first Tupperware navy minehunters were built using a mould taken from the previous generation of mahogany hulled ships.

Re: BBC Radio on internet
BBC Radio 1 to 4, along with the local stations no longer broadcast on Tunein, which means you can't listen to them on older internet radios such as the Logitech Squeezebox.

In the 80s I had a Kenlowe Hotstart coolant pre-heater, 230v 3kw, it used to heat the coolant up from -10° to 80° in about 20 minutes, toasty!

Re: Millions of us might be **** if we ignore the Russian-Ukraine war
Front end crew wouldn't be a much of a problen, it's a modified IL-76 and there will be plenty of pilots qualified to fly them. Replacing the back end mission crew would be more of a problem, operating and interpreting airborne radar systems can be more of an art than a science.
