From: Harriet Monkhouse hflysator@jarriere.demon.co.uk as "I would guess that" but that's a bit high falutin' for Vila.
It does sound more like someone else we could point the finger at. "I'd guess" might be more like him. "I reckon", placed after the mention of whatever he's supposing, might be a possibility, but I have an almighty doubt that the phrase has had much usage by the Poms in recent times; and it seems to be fading out of Australian usage too.
