You mean 'cabbage', don't you?

Would cauliflower do?

UK "funny"! I was being serious! g

Tiscali, the ISP used by Shane, has its head office in Cagliari,
Sardinia. The one part of my reply that is probably false, is that
it is run my the mafia since I was under the impression that the
mafia are to a degree reasonably competent at what they do whereas
those who run Tiscali, at least in the UK, are probably some of the
most incompetent individuals around.
Where the mafia comes in is that Tiscali provide little more
capacity to their users than one would get if one was to use string
to connect users to their system. Similarly they hate to see their
customers leave. My first ADSL connection was with a company
(WorldOnline) that was
taken over by Tiscali. I left them in 2003 only in 2005 to receive
an invoice for two years service, two years during which I had been
with another ISP to whose equipment my line was physically connected
thus a physical impossibility that I had been with Tiscali. Tiscali
denied this and continued to claim ever increasing sums for a
further 15 months until eventually I sent them a letter stating that
I was going to start legal proceedings against them at which point
they decided to give up on me and turn instead on their latest
victim, Shane. :-) Cheers,

Mike
