If anyone feels like opening the link, I'm sort of happy to send it on because I'm really quite curious now (luckily it's Friday so the curiousity should die down in about 2.5 hrs)

Could be a genuine error

The address auto-fill algorithm in my version of Thunderbird has been defective ever since the last update. I frequently write to a friend whose email begins with "pl", but sometimes the auto-fill has entered the address of a colleague whose domain name contains the letters "pl" (well into the domain name!).

As a consequence random people in my address book have received messages like "When are we meeting at the park?"

Don't click

This seems like a bot generated email generated specifically not to trigger spam filtering my advice would be not to click on it.
You should never click on an email link unless you absolutely trust the sender, there are too many nasty things that could happen.

The Golden Rule is to never click on any link sent by an unknown person. Or, in case that known person's email had been hacked, never click on a suspicious link, e. g. the famous "I saw it on Ophra" or the "Dear Customer" emails from banks or PayPal.
