Author's Notes: SHOS was published in The Strand Magazine in 1927.



“‘The firm, austere expression of those who have to control horses or boys...’”

Holmes laughed, and lowered his periodical to find Mrs. Clitheroe, the housekeeper staring down at him.

“Heavens! The exact expression!” He tossed the Strand onto the floor. “Though you don’t deal with boys and horses, of course.”

Mrs. Clitheroe stooped, retrieving the magazine. “Not horses anyway, sir.”

*chuckle* Holmes has a soul of a boy, eh?

And in fact, Mrs Clitheroe thought in private, horses would be a lot less trouble.

Holmes never changes, does he? Still as sardonic and sloppy as ever.

[tardisjournal.livejournal.com]

As would actual boys.

I do like to think that Holmes never changes, no matter how old he gets ^_^

I love the 'of course.' As if he somehow knew her every past experience.

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

Knowing Holmes, he probably did... (^_^)

As do I! :)
