I'm puzzled over the marrow/ squash bit that Lynn has re-rasised. What would people in the US call something that looks like zucchini/ courgettes but is a lot bigger say 18" and even bigger in length? Over here, that is a marrow.

I'm not sure how marrows, squashes, etc. are related but over here, to the best of my knowledge, in common terms, we know marrows, courgettes and pumpkins for something to get called a squash, it would normally have to be something other than these vegatables.
