flawedamythyst has written a John/Sherlock plumber AU based in a coffee shop, which is hilarious and proves that I was quite right when I said that you can get away with almost anything if you make me laugh. Read it here.
I had thought of writing about work, but despite my best attempts there's nothing really interesting to say. I'm back battling the beastly budgets, relieved only by the necessity of collecting an over heating vacuum cleaner and finding an egg for biscuit making.
So, favourite films. I much prefer theatre to films, but I'll try for three. My all time favourite film is "Casablanca". The plot, the suspense, the relationships, it all comes together so well. I tear up every time the "Marseillaise" is sung. Despite the number of times I've seen it I always sit there at the end wondering how it will work out. So many classic lines.
Secondly, I shall go for "Dumbo". After all, who can resist "Pink Elephants on Parade". And singing along to "When I see an elephant fly".
Lastly, I shall choose "Gosford Park". Lots of great actors, an interesting plot, not a great film maybe, but one that appeals to me. Charles Dance and Maggie Smith for starters.
