No.

He has sensible interests.

Could it be that he is actually interested for himself.

OH and I have very different interests. He sometimes tells me something about what 'the lads' have done or won or something and I make some sort of noise that indicates that I have heard him without conveying any interest.

For my part, I don't even hope that anybody else might be interested in what entertains me but I tell him about exciting things I have discovered or thought might be possible and he also makes an appropriate noise.

Not this morning! I don't know what he was up to but, quite excitedly, I told him that cogs had been used as battleships in the Battle of Sluys and he asked what the date of the battle was! I hadn't really noticed that, I wasn't looking. I had to look it up again to tell him.

What did he want to know that for? I don't ask how many they scored.

This is all very disconcerting. I don't know if I can handle him showing interested.
