I'm glad! I don't know if everyone's as interested, but I often find myself going down rabbit holes on Wikipedia. I was looking into an aviation centre near to the abbey mentioned, and just happened upon this bit of info! I had no idea, at first it seems strange that Britain would take Napoleon in, but @calluna pointed out it was a surprisingly common tactic back then.
