impulsereaderGrandmere is dying to hear about one of Sherlock and John’s adventures. Which ACD story should be adapted for her benefit? Come on – throw me your favourite – Silver Blaze, Yellow Face and Speckled Band are the only stories off the table as I’m trying/planning to use or have already used those.
I’m still not sure what Mycroft is building – or assembling – he has the MJN crew bringing in one element and Sandy Arbuthnot flying in another – there may very well be other components as well... This leads one of the opening scenes in the Much Ado season to feature a dogfight bringing down Sandy’s plane and a group of armed men hijacking Gertie! Luckily, John and Not Anthea look harmless and are taken along as hostages. It does not take them long to return control to Martin (who displays a slightly startling willingness to be Captain even when doing so requires him to be kidnapped at gunpoint. “No, being Captain means taking the bad with the good, Douglas.”).
What is Mycroft building/assembling? Maybe he’s let one of you in on it? He doesn’t seem inclined currently to tell me.
Mycroft refers to the clan as ‘a blizzard of Holmeses’. Do we like that or can you lot come up with something better? I know djarum99 is good at this – a charm of hummingbirds - *happy sigh*.
Do John and Sherlock exchange gifts? If yes, what would you like to see them give each other? Two holidays here, mind…is anyone interested in any other possible gift exchanges?
What do you think might be in the bottle (sealed with lead) which Sherlock pocketed in the attic?
The boys are scheduled for a final fitting of their costumes. I think this requires another canon character (anyone but Donovan *glares at Sally*) to drop by the flat coincidentally while Sherlock is trying on dresses. Who would you like it to be? What else is going on in November at Baker Street? What are we talking about while the fitting is going on? Is there a case on? Maybe we can even put in another ACD adaptation here…go wild!

I'm so glad you popped in! Thank you so much! I missed you!
