Mr Holmes crumpled yet another piece of paper and threw it across the room.  He had implied that writing his adventures should be a simple task, but it seemed that producing a convincing story was not as easy as he had claimed.  And his language was such that I had to cover the ears of my youngest with my paws.

Quite wonderful
I can picture the indignant parent mouse:-)

Thank you. The mice will be very grateful when the good doctor returns to Baker Street.

I bet Holmes is quite foul mouthed when writing, which can be the height of frustration. I'm amused the mice worry about human swear words too. :)

After all the time the mouse had spent pointing out what a good example Mr Holmes was, he was not impressed with the language.

I love that image of a frustrated Holmes - annoyed that he's not immediately brilliant at something so simple as telling a story. (^^) I bet he's really inventive when it comes to swearing though ^_^

Since Holmes was able to blend in with all sorts of working men I imagine he had the language that went with it.
