Christmas Presents

Rating: G
Characters:  John Watson
Word Count: 1,420
Summary: This is the first of my Christmas fics, written to say thank you to various friends who have helped me during the year.  This one is for basaltgrrl who has provided encouragement when I've been down and shares my liking for both Life on Mars and Sherlock.  She requested something involving presents, so here we have John Watson Christmas shopping.

Thanks must also go to my wonderful beta jinxed100 who has patiently waded her way through more Christmas fics than is probably entirely healthy.

Summary: This is the second of my Christmas fics, written to say thank you to various friends who have helped me during the year.  This one is for flawedamythyst who introduced me to so many of the delights of the sherlock fandom and particularly sherlock60  She requested anything to do with John's jumpers.

Word Count: 1,250
Summary: This is the third of my Christmas fics, written to say thank you to various friends who have helped me during the year.  This one is for thirdbird_fic who has encouraged me in many ways and above all made me laugh.  A lot of my recent writing has involved food in one way or another so in keeping with this she requested Sherlock cooking.  And after all, what could have been easier than making mince pies.

( Cookery is merely practical chemistry )
