Thank you jaddles and Karen.
What a difference a picture makes.
Now I know what we are talking about - "Negi".
If I am not mistaken jaddles that is a Spring Onion like you said.
Isn't it funny how some things are given a different name and we can't tell what they are. Green Onion in the US is a Spring Onion in Australia.
Thank you both and Erin of course.
Simon.
