Sherlock Holmes Society of St. Charles: "The new phone books are here! The new phone books are here!"

"The new phone books are here! The new phone books are here!"

Well, okay, not exactly.

I did not get to watch 'Elementary' last night, but that doesn't mean it can't still be a Sherlockian day.

In the morning 'post' I recieved my copy of the new film 'Mr. Holmes'.

So the next couple of days may require a meal fit for 'Simpsons' (roast beef and yorkshire pudding) and a good glass of Claret and maybe a fire in the fireplace.

I got my copy yesterday. I thought last night's "Elementary" was very good--Thomas Carlyle got a shout-out in the Jason Tracey script, he being one of Peoria's least objectionable scriptwriters. Joan is becoming the Watson-bulldog you were hoping to see.

My review of "Mr. Holmes" will be in the Fall Watsonian, which should be in a mailbox near you next week.
