It's not that I *adore* A Study in Scarlet - I don't even own a copy - but I always hark back to this particular paragraph when asked for favourite quotes from books. So I was very pleased when it got referenced in ITV's BBC's 'Sherlock'.
I am rather fond of gel pens though, and have quite a stock of them littered around the place.
And before anyone asks. Yes, I did add in those underlines and queries as I wrote. *facepalms*
