Tim said 'It's windy in Preston Park but I'll see you in 1901 tomorrow'?

Is it the chorus of Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm by Crash Test Dummies?

Did Samuel stubb his toe on a table leg?

That spelling of Ludwik is Polish, as opposed to Ludwig which is German.

Used to enjoy a bit of Ludwig, back in the day



Tim, while Ludwig had had "had", had had "had had"; "had had" had had a better effect on Samuel.

Is it one of those subliminal messages in reverse, advertising the film Mamma Mia?

Looks like an RC4 decryption algorithm, decrypt the datablock with a virtual processor and reveal the link hidden inside the PNG file (in a comment tag).

Samuel: INAAANAIA
Ludwik: NAANIANMN
Louis: MMIMAAMMA

It's too clear to be Timmy.

Well that was a fun 10 minutes going from Louis Pasteur to Ludwik Hirszfeld and a Mr Samuel who wrote about one of them only to find that Blood Types aren't categorised by those letters. So I got bored and resigned myself to the fact I won't be a Spook any time soon.

The three lines are very uniform in letters.

2 7 9 2 5 2 2 5 3 8 2 6 7

We've made progress here,

Samuel - Morse
Louis - Braille
Ludwik - Esperanto


So convert the original letters and numbers into morse code which draws out the braille letters of words which can be translated into esperanto.


Might of course be wrong but so far makes sense
