Yummy!

I wonder why "The Time Traveler's Wife" (a book I just finished) comes to my mind ....

There's only too much newspaper in the picture. Okay, I'll shut up and bury my head in shame.

"Honey, please could you hand me the newspaper? Nooo, not only the sports section!!"

Hello you lot. I'm going to put this photo into a new game in the Games section in a mo'. it will be a weekly caption competition so have a go. I see some of you have come up with some ideas already!

Hah, I see it is the usual suspects responding to the above picture!

Davina · August 16, 2012 9:31 am

It won't let me post the picture so I am going to ask the lovely Hepzibah to do it for me. PMd you m'dear.

To be honest: I was wondering for a short moment about Davina's post regarding the "Game section", because at first I read "German section"

SusiGo · August 16, 2012 10:08 am

Ah, a German section with Benedict photo games just for the few of us. That's very generous, Davina

Ladies, hang on to your ovaries

If I had ovaries I would lose them over that photo

hepzibah · August 16, 2012 11:15 am

Ha, Janine, I'm in the same boat as you, but for a different reason!
How about, hang on to your hormones? We all have those, even if they are different ones

Mmmm! Man!Lust! I love it. I don't have ovaries any more or anything else, but I ain't blind.... IMO, all one needs is eyes in one's head. Just sayin'.

Ovaries schmovaries, I say.

Honestly, I don't think, feel or consciously do anything else with my ovaries. And you definitely don't need them to appreciate Benedict Cumberbatch .

hepzibah · August 16, 2012 6:22 pm

Snicker, it's just a bit of a running joke all over Tumblr (I told you before, don't judge me, I go there for the science) about exploding ovaries whenever a cute pic of Benny appears.

So, what do we think of this look? Ignoring the ciggie, of course.

I didn't like the look before watching Tinker Tailor, but now I find it strangely compelling.

I know, I occasionally have a look at Tumblr as well for the same reasons. Nothing but research. And many commentaries are really funny. I think I must have a closer look at Tinker, Tailer before judging his looks.

I cannot figure out how to join Tumblr. When I try, it asks for some kind of password-- how do I get a password if I don't even have an acct? I don't get it. But then, I'm so old, I don't get Facebook either. Oh, well. *channeling Moriarty* booooring ancientsgate....

There is one Tumblr acct I go to daily, however-- the fan fic author madlori's. She puts up lots of nice Ben/Sher/Martin/John pics, she's an avid Sherlock/John slasher, and so I find a nice nest to root around in there.

I haven't seen that movie yet. I find his non-Sherlock roles kinda boring, but then I'm not a huge movie fan anyway. Didn't like Atonement, or War Horse. I did like Hawking, however, probably because he was a dead ringer for my old boyfriend back in HS, lololololol.

I liked this larger image, but not the smaller one. I call this his prep school look-- he's too old here to be a student, of course, but maybe a young teacher, come back to Harrow to tutor the kids in Latin and Greek. Carrying his big stick, of course, to beat away all his admirers. *g* Yes, I do have a vivid imagination that leans hard to the homoerotic.... *channeling Moriarty again* Are you just getting that now?
