It would seem I am sharing my lodgings with a man possessing an extraordinary mind.  His deductions have a unique quality to them, for I am sure no other man would come to the same conclusions as he does.  I just wish he would make use of his own towel when he wishes to tie criminals’ legs, rather than mine.

Heehee! Good one.

Thank you!

Ah, Dr. Watson. Now there's a man who really knows where his towel is.

It's with Sherlock Holmes being used to mop up chemical spillages, or climb out of windows.

I gather from Dr Watson there are times when he doesn't want to know where his towel is. On those occasions he resigns himself to buying a new one.

One froody dude, Watson. ;-)

Most certainly.

Classic (or not so classic) new flatmate dilemma: how to safeguard one's towel.

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

Even having his initials on the towel didn't help.

There's definitely a fic in that. Holmes giving Watson monogrammed towels every Christmas because he destroys them.

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

I believe that idea may have been safely logged ...

[debriswoman]

Yep...taking liberties already.

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

Watson should have learned at that point - it would only get worse.

[debriswoman]

He should, and it did

The first roommate squabble. "Did you HAVE to trash the window while catching a murderer, dude? Landlady's gonna have a fit."

For anyone else in this situation, we can recommend a number of glaziers who advertise in our publication.

Hee! It's always the little things that truly annoy.

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

Quite. You go to have a bath and discover mud from someone's boots on your towel.

[laurose8.livejournal.com]

A good point! These little habits do rub.

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

Holmes probably thinks it a trivial matter - but then, it's not his towel.

[grrlpup]

Hahaha! Why do I feel this is the first of many, many such thoughts in the years to come. :)

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

I really can't imagine :D

Pfft! Trying not to disturb others around me with my giggles!
