The Adventure of the Lion's Mane

Missing

I do not miss London, not any more. I can breathe here, walk for miles without seeing a soul. I do not even miss the work, somewhat to my surprise.

I miss a gruff, cheerful voice; footsteps on the stairs; the stub of a Bradley’s cigarette in the grate.

I have new friends. But even Stackhurst calls me ‘Mr’ Holmes.

Behind on replies, sorry. Yes, said it before and will say it again: everyone should have a Watson.

YES. I had a similar thought I toyed with, but you did it up to perfection. That last line is right on the money. YES.

It so struck me, Edwardian manners being what they were. They could drop by uninvited, but "Mr"?
