Very odd indeed - the only mention of this I can find on the Internet is the exact same post you (or another Larkshall) posted to gardenerscorner.co.uk (Google bots move quickly thesedays!!)

Seems you are being singled out - are you a secret Tiller Salesman???
Moved to Portugal - ain't going back!
