Correct author, but a much shorter title.
Spy Story, then? (If so, my maths vis-a-vis yours, seemingly cockeyed.) At all events -- if correct, open floor please.

I am afraid not. The title is even shorter.Spy Story, then? (If so, my maths vis-a-vis yours, seemingly cockeyed.) At all events -- if correct, open floor please.
Correct. Bomber was written on an IBM MT/ST: Deighton had to have a window removed when it was craned into his house in 1968.Bomber?
Was that the name of the plane with upward firing cannon?Ok, continuing the theme of the a forenamed Deighton novel....
...why were Bomber Command air crews mortally afraid of German Jazz Music?
YesWas that the name of the plane with upward firing cannon?
Correct name, wrong application. As @DaleCooper has correctly said, "Schreage Musik" was the nickname given by the Germans to the upward firing cannon system fitted to interceptor aircraft.Or -- was it Germany's equivalent (called IIRC Schraege Musik) of our radar -- less effective; but could, when it worked, give great trouble?
Yes
Correct name, wrong application. As @DaleCooper has correctly said, "Schreage Musik" was the nickname given by the Germans to the upward firing cannon system fitted to interceptor aircraft.

No, she was scrapped in 1963.I'll probably be wrong again about WW2 stuff: but would it be the only one still operational and able to sail to places?
Actually 4 days, 15 hours and 29 minutes from laying down of keel to launch but you're essentially correct so your turn...Was it built in one day?
Sorry, see above.fastest build ship?

Open Floor pleaseActually I think AndyPJG has got closer to the answer than me.
So I'll pass the next question to AndyPJG.
One of those four nations is correct.Kirkwall, Lerwick, Stromness
Penzance, Helston, St Erth
Presteign, New Radnor, Bangor-on-Dee
Warrenpoint, Rostrevor, Keady
With this edit, you have now named five of the correct towns.EDIT: Delete Helston and add Hugh Town
I will give you that - you've got the majority of the answers correct.I'll have a shot, if I may -- far from certain of being fully right; but to try and move things on ...
Northernmost, Scotland: Kirkwall, Lerwick, Stromness
Westernmost, England: Penzance, Hugh Town, and -- St. Ives and Marazion both further west than St. Erth: from the map, they look an equal distance "west -- east" -- I'll plump for St. Ives.
Easternmost, Wales: Gwent (Monmouthshire to the Diawl Sais) is nowadays indubitably in Wales, is it not? -- so: Chepstow, Monmouth, and further north, Wrexham (Bangor-on-Dee counts as only a village, I think).
Southernmost, N.I. : Kilkeel, Newtownhamilton, Newcastle
I will give you that - you've got the majority of the answers correct.
Kirkwall, Lewick, Stromness
Hugh Town, St Just, Penzance
Chepstow, Monmouth, Caldicot
Kilkeel, Warrenpoint, Newtownhamilton
