Help

I'm not getting any real writing done right now between work and the upcoming trip, and this is more than a bit not good. I'm also stuck on this scene pulling in the Cabin Pressure crew, and I keep going over the same things in my head, so I've come to the conclusion it's time to enlist you guys to introduce some new elements to swirl around...

1. Gifts Mycroft will try to give Not Anthea. I'm going to need a lot of them since he's going to end up being seriously thwarted in his attempts. At least one of them needs to be fairly delicate because I need it to be smashed to pieces in Gertie's hold when Not Anthea takes control and performs a few barrel rolls.

2. A word game for Douglas and Martin - cabin address or just between the two of them in the flight deck. I just keep cycling through all the ones we've heard on the show and cannot come up with any good new ones.

3. And I'll just throw this in since I'm stuck with milk and eggs at this point - anything specific you'd like to see Sherlock do whilst shopping. This is the most frustrating for me at this point because I feel if I could just marshal my attention, sit down, and type the darn thing, I could bang this out pretty quickly. Grrrr...

I like the idea of Sherlock getting stuck for twenty minutes in just one section because WHO KNEW there were 15 different brands of baked beans and HOW IS HE SUPPOSED TO KNOW which ones are the best unless he reads ALL THE LABELLING and he can't deduce it or just get what John normally gets be Aust John comes home every week WITH RANDOM BEANS and then he's furious to discover that John just gets whatever's on special because JOHN THAT'S NO WAY TO SELECT THE BEST BEANS IT'S NOT SCIENTIFIC.

And he finally moves on to the pasta shelf and AARGH THE WHOLE BUSINESS WITH TOO MUCH CHOICE AGAIN

lol - I'd hit on the individual ideas of his being frustrated by TOO MANY CHOICES and doing some sort of experiment, but hadn't linked the two, so that's helpful, thank you!
