It seems Michael Heseltine has his own font.

[i]"The Heseltine typeface family was originally produced as a gift from Haymarket Media Group to Lord Heseltine for his 75th birthday. Kindly donated by Lord Heseltine to the BuyFontsSaveLives campaign, the typeface was designed by Paul & Pat Hickson in Text & Titling weights; italics were later added to mark his 80th birthday and enable the setting of Latin plant names!"[/i]

Is it just me or... does one of those ligatures look incredibly familiar?

I quite like it, but I don't know what you mean about a familiar ligature.

I think he is referring to the letters s and t on the bottom row, looks like the singletrack logo

Ah, I see. I've only been on STW since about 2003, so I can't think why I should have noticed that before. 😳

Never liked the change to the st ligature logo. The ligature existed long before singletrack...
