Cool @ Agaricus ...

Put my "odd" lucubrations down to an excess of Miss Marple (Margaret Rutherford in glorious black & white, a sheer delight even when (excellently) dubbed) and other transmuted Agatha Christie and Midsomer evenings on our local telly down here in sight of the mountains.
Choice of vocabulary is, though, a potential indicator of this odd person's identity - "aerodrome" for example does have a whiff of the '20s about it, while "airfield" would, I'd have thought, be more usual, but then, those are just part of my personal preferences. And Prune participants also know that (s)he writes gramatically, which would exclude not a few possibles ...
I just hope, like most "raight-mainded" people, that nothing else happens and that Shuttleworth will continue undisturbed.
