Sherlock has eaten my brain.

That's my excuse for everything at the moment and I'm sticking to it. I haven't been posting, because I've been too busy reading Sherlock fanfic, watching Sherlock vids and reading Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original Sherlock stories - which are rapidly becoming my favourite books of all time ( Read more... )

Sir Conan Doyle, I know I am many years to late to ever tell you personally, but you rock!

Oh dear, did I not tell you this years and years (or at least months and months) ago? I've been a fan of ACD since I was a kid.

Anyway, YES.

And I'm so glad life is good. Could you send some sun down this way? I'm very excited about the end of the drought but enough already with the rain and cold in October.

Noooo, it was a well kept secret. Honest. *squinty eyes you* Trufax. Oh, but I have little sticky notes all over my copy so far and I haven't got to the novels yet. :)

Actually there is a storm a-brewing here at the moment, but maybe that means your part of the country will get some sun...? Never know. It's been sunny all week, so it'd be about time for it to rain all weekend. lol It just doesn't bother me at all today.

Bother! As always, I have a huge pile of deep-serious-theology I should be reading and it looks like I'm going to be curling up with Sherlock tonight instead.

Have you seen the movie Young Sherlock Holmes (directed by Barry Levinson in 1985)?

I used to watch it with my dad (and had the hardest time finding the DVD when I was in France last year).

Oh I did find it in the end, it was a US import and it's in English or French (both language on the case). It was like 10 Euros I think, which is about NZ$20. So not that bad. :)

I tend to watch it in French, cos that's how I know it. Just like I know The Princess Bride and the original Star Wars Trilogy (I watch it in English and the lines come to me in French in my head...) and some other movies like Hudson Hawk...
