Really wanted to find an 'old' style diner when we did our tour but never found one. Proper chips would have been double bubble.

While it's most unlikely you possibly has too high voltage like 240V instead of 120V.
That'd blow it the first time you used it - not several months down the line. Interested to here the cause.
Is the microwave from a branded source?

It was caused when a flight attendant (who was serving meals in the cockpit) accidentally pressed the switch that caused the pilot’s seat to move in its track, thereby pressing the pilot forward onto the control yoke and causing the plane to dive. Wonder how quickly the media will retract their rush to judgment?
Air Stewedesses fault? Jeez! I can't do that in my car. And that didn't cost £25+m
I'll give that the reporting was a bit loose, but that doesn't get Boeing off the hook.

Unbeliveable! You ought to watch this not so much for the piano playing but for the gall of the Chinese contingent who were happy to film others, but not be filmed themselves. Seemed to me they wanted Chinese standards in London. Some of the follow up TV interviews are worth a watch too.

You do not have memories of water fountains in school or public ones that were used for years by huge populations? Or, a bunch of boys (or girls) sharing a garden hose on a hot day? I drank from those for years as did all my friends. I do not recall anyone getting sick. Yes, I do know there are viruses in society that did not exist then.

More a case of we're living too clean and don't know how to fight these things. Hard to see a kid with dirty hands these days.

I like Panoramas, especially for mountains.

The solution was to crop so that it was more of a portrait orientation. Ended up with a 3rd place. I'm pretty pleased with that. Thanks for the input.

There's a lot of people seeing something I'm not. Need the colour one to 'explain' it to me, it just looks very busy to me.

Or he might say the tree is nicely positioned on the thirds, but I doubt it. I like it as art piece.
