So far I've had to....

• keep seven appointments at the hospital for my daughter's broken finger
• get one daughter to childcare whilst other was in operation for broken finger (Schrodinger's Mum)
• become on firstname terms with the play therapy staff at the childrens' ward
• paid bills online, breaking my internet banking taboo once and for all
• unblocked a drain for my neighbour cased by my other neighbour and loose the friendship of both
• buy a replacement cistern caused by investigating the drain blockage
• chase up said replacement cistern order for non-arrival
• Chase up plumbing firms for installing etc etc
• get electric lighting in bathroom sorted so plumber can see in there to etc etc
• find the bank manager helpful in chasing up delayed funding
• get the bank managers helpful paperwork bounced back to me a third time by unhelpful company
• get annoyed sister telling random companies it's my fault that she can't replace my mother's gravestone

And the BC hassle about Trek goes on.  JLMiller as a modern Sherlock in the superior Elementary, well, maybe he was cast because he's a good actor with the right accent and a superior work ethic.  The paragraph about this in this months old interview  www.shortlist.com/entertainment/tv/benedict-cumberbatch that my Google alert placed on my top five today for some weird reason is a bit snotty.  Oh Benny Carlton, stop mouthing off like we're all your friends and be vigilant about your co-workers who are just being workers.  It does make you sound like a bit of a tool when you sound as though you are giving permission for others to work alongside you.  You are not the first Sherlock, you won't be the last Sherlock and time will tell as to whether you are the best Sherlock or not.  Watch Elementary all the way through before you call the BC boySherlock the best.
Best Watson so far?  Freeman.  Best Tietjens, BC Why? Excellent summary   www.theartsdesk.com/tv/parades-end-series-finale-bbc-two    Best  fan page about BC I've seen yet:   pinterest.com/msbeaverhausen/benedict-cumberbatch/

Roll on The Hobbit as top film seen in Britain this month, and Bond film Skyfall getting really rave word of mouth references to take huge HUGE amounts  of box office too.
If you've struggled this far, Thank you.
