But you could get lucky and accidently choose a Sherlockian. Then you would probably get hugs and compliments ;)
 

Since watching Sherlock, I enjoy being observant. It's great to discover things you never noticed before. But I don't think it makes me clever - I just slowly start realising how very blind we wander through everyday life. I like noticing things, though I rarely try to deduce anything.

Personally it would annoy me if people started staring at my watch, phone, shoes, whatever else, and I like to think my friends feel the same (they are not as much into Sherlock as I am) so I don't "practice" on them.

I think it's good fun though, sometimes I find myself contemplating people's habits, usually when I'm on the bus or train and very bored. But I find it's rather difficult to verify my ideas, so most of the time I don't even know if I'm right or wrong about sth.

zeratul, I know that typewriter behaviour, so I think you could be right. I once did a ten-finger-writing-course where we had to use typewriters, and afterwards I always tried to jump lines manually on my computer
 

Is it possible to decide for a favourite from series 3? I see myself failing.
I absolutely adore "Addicted to a certain lifestyle" and the music to the mindpalace scene, but the one I listen the most to is the Appledore theme. Like "Deeper into Baskerville" it's incredibly powerful. I also like "Vanishing underground", although I didn't like the film sequence much. "How it was done" makes me laugh out loud every time :D
I find it very hard to pick a favourite, although I have my favourites for series 1 and 2. ("A man who can" and "Prepared to do anything")

... and after listening to the soundtrack over and over again,my favourite from series 3 is indeed "Vanishing Underground"

I also use ten-finger-typing (is that equivalent to touch-typing? I didn't know the expression so far).
I tried to type extra fast to make it more difficult. I think the "sch" is a typical german mistake, because we rarely type "sh" but "sch" all the time?

 

Pushing for 100 posts, thought that would get me a fancy new title, but nooooo apparently I have to wait for another 30 posts... *sniff*
now what... mmm... any Sherlock cookies left...?

I'm not sure if I could arrange it - I'm not brilliant with organizing I confess, my life is proof of that :D
But this time we wouldn't need to go to a hotel, because we don't need live BBC, right?
So we could just meet somewhere private maybe?
I don't know which kind of disagreements happend, gently, and I'm sorry they did. but maybe a more private meeting would be easier to organize... and maybe others could do the main organizing stuff this time.
Maybe we could first agree on the period when exactly we want to meet (summer? juni? july? august?). Then I could put up a doodle up with more specific dates.
And we all could think about locations, and what exactly we would like to do - watch series 3 again, what else?
Just putting my random thoughts here. what do you think?

Got an answer from ARD. Might I just say, it sounds like I critized them in a harsh way - I did not. It was a friendly question, definitely no accusation! Seems like they read something into it that I wasn't even suggesting (the content related stuff).
But then again, maybe they got more mails but the one about that topic, and just ran out of patience? Has anybody else been writing to them?

When I lived in London, I used to walk up a hill, turn round and run down, spreading my arms, screaming. I cannot really say why I did that. I was bored, it was fun, it was a good way to let go of aggression, and I liked running :D London was generally a good place to be crazy. I miss it.

I went alone to Paris to visit a heavy metal concert next to Moulin Rouge. I then forgot which bus I needed to take and walked home at night without knowing the way. Never again have I had so many offers though I didn't know exactly what kind of offers because I don't speak french... I have a good imagination though :D I was so glad when I was finally home in my hostel!

Here at home, we changed an advertisement of a mobile phone shop. It read "for you" with a ticked box, and "for everyone else" with an empty box next to it. Somehow we didn't like the egoistic message, so we changed the message on all three shops in our town (without damaging anything of course). It took the shop assistants days to realise. Good fun.

Once our town had christmas trees out in November already. We went round at night and put loads of little paper signs up on the trees which read: it's not christmas yet! Those were busy shopping streets, and till christmas the signs were there, and people where reading them and talking about them. It was so much fun watching them

I've also been climbing around a good deal more construction sites than my parents want to know about. Best playgrounds ever. Nothing will keep me away from abandonded empty houses either.

I like hiking in scottish rain, which must mean I'm crazy.

Oh, and once I spent a weekend in a hotel, just to watch Sherlock series 3 live on BBC. Everybody I know considered this as craziness, but I know, it won't count here

Well, I wouldn't mind if it meant Germany :D ;)
but of course, I love the UK and I'll embrace every opportunity to travel there...

I really don't understand either why they need details and such, for an e-mail notification. I don't like it if somebody tries to get personal information in such a way...

I would love love love to go though!! Europe means the UK I suppose?
