Pass on the ISP - I have been with Pipex for ages, was bought by Tiscalli, now CarPhone Warehouse. So I will probably have to move soon. But it is a reliable service, < 8mbp/s static IP and 30GB/month for about £15/m. > > Secondly, I'm looking for a second hosting service.

You can choose what image you run on your VMs (VPSs) including Ubuntu. They only do Linux and you get full root/ssh access + a serial port access for when things go fsck and you need to reboot.
