    They were Dutch but I'm guessing Amsterdam - really haven't a clue of the city.

    Correct. Take it away. Am I the only person here who remembers them?

    Obviously not. :)

    I'm taking a look at previous questions to see what type is usual here. Give a few minutes and I'll post one - I hope it won't have been asked already.

    It is Tilde. We used to use it in spreadsheet macros years ago but I forget what it did.
    It's an accent on letters in many languages too.

    Jaysus. Googled this one also and to be fair - you would never link this person to Black Sabbath. And i say that having seen him live more than once :D

    A guy just came to mind in that I can see him but his name won't come to me.

    He sang 'How am I supposed to live without you?'.

    It'll come to me.......

    Yep, that would be him. You might recall his name soon and when you do it'll be like a .... out of the blue. (ok, between assonance and clues, that should do it). :)

    Might Recall --> Michael
    A ... (bolt)... out of the blue --> Bolton.

    The "subliminal" clues worked!! :D

    Your go, Jim, well done (and thanks for not making me think of another question).
