They are showing the adverts for the American Sherlock thingy here …

I am going to hate it, aren't I?

In other news, the lovely theodoraleft left many thanks for everyone who helped out with the Thanksgiving shopping last month. She also left the thanks last month, but I have been writing stories about bamboo and compost and god knows what else and burning my thumb and learning to play Cole Porter in E flat on the ukulele, not to mention very, very crap at doing anything in a timely fashion. Thanks, though! SHE was totally timely!

For anyone worried about December 21st, the world has not ended here in the future. It won't end over there in the past, either. Though if I have to go into the shopping centre opposite my work to buy salad for lunch and brave the bonkers crowds again tomorrow, it may end for one or two very specific people. I feel absolutely certain there must be a way to commit homicide by red pepper, if one is sufficiently motivated! Probably best to pack some extra porridge …

Keep out of the madding crowds, dear flist! If you haven't bought your gifts yet, tell everyone they were delayed in the post and buy them in the sales!

It's actually not a bad show. I try not to think of it as Sherlock Holmes so much as an American detective TV show with a British twist. I was all set to pooh pooh it but no, it's actually worth watching for its own sake...it's just not really Sherlock Holmes in any traditional sense at all.

Yeah, that's the vibe I'm getting from flistees, which is a much better vibe than the one I was getting from the ads. I think I'll give it a try, I can always turn it off!
