Hi Lewis,
I certainly did check yesterday. I pulled out everything from the shelf in question and not surprisingly, since my Mrs is a clean-freak, there was no sign of anything untoward mold-wise, - or anything else-wise in fact.
So although the mold explanation sounds the most feasible under certain conditions, the reality is that the cupboard is just a normal clean dry cupboard that seems safe enough to crockery etc.
There's still something of a mystery attached to this event imo - though I have no alternative theories to offer.
