So now I am Learning All About Cricket.

Is it OOC of Sherlock to be a decent bowler?

ETA - I have no idea what this means, but I'm having fun trying to puzzle it out...

The ball following a front foot no-ball will be a free-hit for the batsman, whereby he is safe from losing his wicket except for being run-out.

Edited again - sneering Mycroft aside, do we think the boys actually call their mother Mummy? as adults? I'm not sure I can make myself do that.

If you need an outdoor scene, it seems like the British are addicted to walking, so you could have them go for a nice Sunday stroll. Except Hannay's idea of a brisk walk is about fifteen miles, and Sherlock is not in training for it and John's leg's not up to it. (Doesn't he have a messed-up leg?)

I'm going to have them out shooting; for some reason I was thinking it would be a good idea to try and write a scene with some action and yelling that seemed to go along with Sport. You know; all sorts of arguing over calls etc.

I love the unintended death march aspect of your suggestion.

John was shot in the shoulder, and in the first episode of Sherlock he has a psychosomatic limp of which Sherlock neatly cures him.
