Author: scfrankles
Rating: G
Author's Notes: “The door had eventually to be opened by a locksmith from Aldershot.”


Suggested Methods for Attempting to Unlock a Door


Mr. Sherlock Holmes: lockpicks, of course.

Dr. Watson: a powerful and carefully directed kick, just below the handle.

Inspector Lestrade: a shot from the contents of my hip pocket!

Mrs. Hudson: if you had all simply waited and asked… I had a spare set of keys for 221B in my biscuit barrel.

Poor Mrs Hudson, she does have a lot to contend with.

Poor door. Wonder how many times its been repaired due to impatience.

Yep...Mrs Hudson...calm, practical...and resigned to unnecessarily ruined doors.

It all goes on the rent. With the added gin fee on top, of course.

Mrs. Hudson has stopped counting. It only upsets her ^^"

The door's the least of her problems, really ^_^

The poor woman's given up expecting commonsense from her tenants ^__^

And for Mrs. Hudson, a well-placed kick not only relieves frustration but opens a jammed liquor-cabinet door.
