I must have missed this one last week.
It's all very British. I like the way you have thought the ideas out and put it together.
Love Jane.xx

Sherlock is my hero, amazing how he's able to solve all those mysteries.
Come to think of it, "Revenge at the BBQ - Suntea Prevails" was one of my favorite titles
Very nice of you to drag the saga along. Perhaps you should try one of your Dad's pipes?
