Sorry but no it has to be Dundee by Mackays

Why is Dundee famous for marmalade? - SeeDundee

We have referenced the city’s renowned ‘three Js’ a little bit before on SeeDundee, but it’s time to go into full detail on why the city is so ridiculously famous

anything else and you're just a heathen awaiting a stoning

@Droogs - TYPICAL reply from someone "oop Norf" (i.e. N of Watford - in Herts don'tcha know)!

I find it hard to believe that no one with a military background has corrected you all yet..so let me It's called "Black Nasty" for two obvious reasons.
NB: if your black nasty isn't in fact black you have an inferior product thats pretending to be the real thing..and its probably not as sticky either!

"Marmalade colour" of course!

You sure about that???

Well Terrytpot, I was in the RAF from 1961 to 1969 and had never heard of "Duct" tape (or "Gaffer" tape), or IF I remember correctly, any other black material-backed sticky tape until landing in civvy street afterwards.

That because RAF isnt military its in a class of its own where even the plebs speak in a tone akin to her majesty.

Duck and cover boys the squaddies and sailors will be along shortly. (All said in jest gents)

Oh please tell me you googled black nasty.

Was there anything else that popped up. Perhaps something 12" or longer that takes batteries? Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I was judicious in the search terms, let's leave it like that.

It's Duct tape, it's a bit like calling your vacuum cleaner a Hoover.
