Indeed!! My experience of trying to solve the puzzles over the years reveals that Mr Fautley does include items that appear to arrive "out of left field" and although seemingly innocuous, they do require some detailed and extensive excavation of the records - not always in the obvious places, either. Fortunately, some inclusions are "red herrings" but occasionally he pulls the pin on the odd grenade and lobs it into the mix. This week being a case in point. I think the expression Mr F might use is "boomph!" - said with a slight smile on his face - no doubt?
