@Sturgis,
Sorry about that. ff would have taken them both on.
What happened was that I got "Vivien is very active concerning IMELDA'S offering Ulric...." and then I had a long soak to consider what had been offered to Ulric that Viv was exercised about and began with S. I was so pleased with Sapphicism that I capitalised it without thinking and made it plural as a bit of a self-depracatory jest.
