Remove the link to our website?!?!

Back in June 2006, I blogged about a Masquerade ball I attended with my girlfriend and briefly mentioned the website I bought our masks from - fancydress.com. 

Two years on; early this June I got a strange email from the supposed webmaster of this site. It read as follows:

Dear Webmaster

We have discovered that you are linking to our website, www.fancydress.com, on the following URL:
http://blogs.warwick.ac.uk/campbello/tag/party/

Please would you remove the link to our website.  Will you please confirm by email that you have received this email and the link has been removed.

Kind regards,

Jeremy

I was perplexed as to why a webmaster would request the removal of a link to his website from my blog. He sent the same email today.

I really can't understand?!? I did not deflame the site neither did I make any complaint about the mask I got from them. This is all I had to say about the site on the post -

I got the masks from fancydress.com a week earlier but still wasn’t sure if I was going.

I have decided not to respond to the email but rather use this post as an avenue to ask the webmaster WHY I should remove my link to his site.
