Well to be a pedant its correct name is Santaari.
@Roberto I just edited out the apostrophe I put in "its".

@TGHC - nope, not acquainted with him/her. Another grammar/spelling Nazi?

@Roberto :
"I don't understand you!" i get that a lot
caterpillars = capitals. just me being silly, the same way i refer to "partnerships" as "parsnips" because....it's a nice word. came from a mistype one day, "catipals" that sounded like caterpillars". also, i like fuzzy caterpillars.
"And I said I *would* cap "Galaxy 1"..." well that's what i get for not reading your mail properly! soz!

I'll keep an eye out for him - maybe we could team up and fight crime
My relationship with caterpillars is somewhat more ambivalent: I once turned on a tap to brush my teeth at a campsite and a caterpillar came out. I still get the nightmares...

Those hairy ones would be pretty good if they didn't wriggle so much.

They look like green disembodied eyebrows.
Don't taste too good though.
Although the hallucinations were a real eye-melter.......

Funny you should say that, in 1981 she got voted rear of the year, totally out of the blue, since being in a green environmentalist tv sitcom, she was not regarded as a looker or considered as a babe, but on closer inspection of the erm... judgement, it was a damn fine choice.
