It's a British/American English difference.
Good call. Looks like it's a british english convention. I'd not seen that before, thanks!
This takes on a different meaning in British English!
It's American English / British English isn't it?
AFAIK in British English, yes, in American English, no.
Maybe it was a US vs British spelling thing?
That's US English, this is British English.
Please don't use English & British interchangeably.
Apparently this is a British vs American English thing. I've decided to stay stubbornly British on this one.
No criticism intended, just a difference in British/American orthography :-)
