Some day, we're going to need a short, catchy name for Cabal packages. Let's call them cabbages.

Not that this is a good reason to change your mind, but some sufficiently ancient Brits may remember a televisual

Speaking of ancient Brits, the Finns used to call Britain cabbage-land, in case that alters anyone's opinion.

It's always somewhere else, isn't it? Somehow, a vision of Michael Palin bursting into the RAF officers' mess shouting "cabbage crates over the briny!" springs to mind. When faced with blank incomprehension and a request to speak English, he replies "but I've got to use banter!". Seems that goes for us too. TTFN Conor
