Birthday Thanks
Nov. 2nd, 2018 05:31 pmThank you all for your good wishes for my birthday.
SM gave me various small items he'd bought when we were in Vienna:

which is lovely, because it keeps the memory alive. The daughter is taking me to see 'Aladdin' in London in a couple of weeks time - I'm taking her to see 'War Horse' for her birthday the same weekend. My mother-in-law was consistent and sent a book token - I am not complaining. And I bought myself a National Gallery diary from my mother - I took it in to show her what she'd bought, and twice more in the hour I was there she said she needed to buy something for me; it's very sad.
I was also fortunate enough to receive two ficlets: Pumpkin Shandy from
stonepicnicking_okapi which is BBC Sherlock Holmes/Hopkins in which Hopkins organises the Yard's Pumpkin orgy and which remains a G - it's hilarious. And Mrs Hudson Gives Holmes the Brush Off by
scfrankles which is ACD Holmes, Broom cupboard 'verse and once again Holmes/Hopkins and also amusing. Not to mention the Holmes Minor poetry page is devoted to drinking songs for Mrs Small-Hobbit's birthday.
