Yup their surname > was Keebab My neighbours over the back are called Nutter. Much as I like the description "nutter", I'm careful not to use it around them. They chose to not have any "A" names for children. They do use it a bit comically themselves - "From A Couple Of Nutters" was on the Christmas card - but they tend to shy away from it in their home business. The husband uses only his first name on the web site for example, and the wife uses her maiden name (I think that's more to disassociate herself from being married to the "managing director" to make the business look a little less Mom 'n' Pop-sy. Although a client seeing one Nutter running a business might back off seeing two Nutters running a business, so it's a sensible ploy) -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
