That L1NUX plate is more trouble than it is worth!

The spacing on the letters doesn't conform and the owner tends to get
pulled by traffic police regularly.

I think Caldera once had a base in Croxley and I think Suse is
somewhere in Hemel so could be a local.

Sorry I've not made the last few meetings - I have been keeping up
with Linux on my Asus eee and hacking away on that.
