O/N: We apologise for this entry, unfortunately it was spotted too late to be removed before publication.

Dear Sir,

I would like to bring to your attention Inspector Stanley Hopkins of the Metropolitan Police.  He is truly the most marvellous of men, with the softest of hair and the kindest of eyes.  Although were you a criminal I am sure he would not look upon you with the same gentleness he shows to others.

Yours blissfully

Mouselet

I don't think there is anything to apologise for. There are so many complaining letters in the papers - how lovely to see such a positive one! Miss Mouselet seems a delightful correspondent.

Perhaps she could have her own column?
This is delightful:-)
And...Mr Hopkins' address?

Does she know anything about bicycles, perchance?

"Holmes, why in the world do you write letters to newspapers with the nom de plume 'Mouselet'?"
"I have my reasons, dear fellow."

In Cathy Childs' Holmes/Hopkins illustrated epic The Bits Watson Doesn't Tell Us (http://www.amazon.com/Bits-Watson-Doesnt-Cathy-Childs/dp/B000M9IRRM), Holmes' childhood nickname was "Mouse" - and his lover Stanley happily takes it up.

I adore Mouselets skilled in the use of movable type! Though I wouldn't be surprised if Hopkins wore his hat a bit lower on his head henceforth.

Huh...

Dear editors,

I wish to add that, as is my wont, I have posted my Sherlock 60 poem and poetry page verse on ffnet. Do my loyal readers want to know about my use of Welsh poetry forms and rhyme pattern?

No, alas

They want to know about mouselet ( origin is properly credited) and her attachment to the above mentioned inspector.

The audience for articles by her is clearly out there,

Sincerely
A well wisher
