Author's Notes: It has been written hurriedly… ...he has acted in an indiscreet and hot-headed manner. Always pause and think before sending…


Subject: Idiot Friends

Holmes,

next time you travel to Swansea, give me the drawer key first so I can retrieve my chequebook.

The laundry is refusing to relinquish my trousers.


Watson thrust the note at Billy.

“Send!”

Billy headed for the post office.

Watson sighed. Then scowled as he spotted the diagram of himself throttling Holmes.

“Damn. Forgot the attachment.”

A bellow from above. "Billy! Unsend!"

"Blimey, not again..." Billy muttered as he trudged back up the 17 steps.

"All right, Doctor, for the last time - THIS is how you send a telegram..."

If he fails to send the attachment, maybe he could spear it to Holmes door for him to see on his return. I doubt Mrs Hudson would object.

I expect the telegraph office is glad he did. Thanks for this glimpse of Holmes-sharing life.

Ahahahahahahaha! You used it! I thought during that conversation that this had the potential for comedy gold. So glad to see it brought to fruition :)
