@usenetposts will not be working there. My Russian teacher has foisted me upon one of her female friends who still lives there. I will strictly be a tourist this time.
@usenetposts it's named "duct tape" because it was developed to seal seams in sheet metal ductwork in HVAC systems. (In my former life I installed HVAC) Duck is a corruption. On another not, I am going to Moscow in October. I need a good reasonably priced hotel . Suggestions?
Sure, there's Duck tape, which is a kind of duct-tape and I reckon they named it in order to induce puns. A little like when they named the province of India called the punjab. On the one hand there were 5 rivers "Panch-ab" and on the other the population were just in the course of an inoculation programme to stop them from getting Sikh jokes.
OK, I should have called it duct-tape, but where I come from there exists a particular brand of it called Duck Tape. They quite possibly use ducks in the manufacturing process.
Was that Aeroflot? I have some interesting memories from the old Tupolev 134s on their domestic flights... I'm sure it was duck-tape which I spotted on the wing when when I looked out the window!
You are fantastic my friend! You help me a lot to start learning and enjoying Russian kanguage. Thanks from my heart!
