Glad you liked it.
From my brief counterstalking, it appears we were both at Hartwell in 1985, me in Prep and you in Grade 2.
I am not a linguist, an ex once did a first year subject in it so I read her Uni notes, and all the phonemes, etc. seemed too bland.
Reading pop linguistics websites and pop science books about and referring to linguistics is more fun. :)
I also like etymology and hate bad grammar and whomever took spelling off the curriculum. ;p
