It's actually a bright cobalt blue colour, not sure how that relates to Baker Street but there you go. Apparently Beyonce wore it

Of course, Bluebell Blue...

Or cashmere scarf blue?

Closer to scarf than bluebell I think, not quite scarf either though. It's here if you'd like to see a photo:

Oh, I like it. I often use blue nail varnish - rather than red.

You know you're obsessed with Sherlock when you find a new customer called "Madcap Consulting" and first you have to think of this:

and then of this:

You know you're obsessed with Sherlock

...when you buy a pair of candles just because they remind you of a certain oatmeal coloured jumper:

Beautiful ones! I just threw away some old candles today - and have space for new ones.

SusiGo · November 27, 2012 5:31 pm

Oh, these are real John Jumper candles.

Shouldn't the longer one be wearing a dark coat?

You are absolutely right, QE! Must go back to the shop and see if there's some coat candle available for the short friend...

Aran candles...interesting!

... when you misread the word "Morality" as "Moriarity." Gave the sentance it was in a whole new meaning.

When the I.T guy in your office says he's buying his girlfriend a Westwood watch for Xmas and you find yourself desperately trying to keep a straight face and remain professional when inside you are convulsing with silent laughter... Poor man has no idea.

Jim from I.T.?? Maybe he knows more than you can imagine.....

I can imagine a lot... Don't think his girlfriend would be too happy if I said he was gay though. She might not get the joke. I might get punched. I was just burying my head into my work and trying to pretend my mind wasn't full of thoughts of 'Jim from IT'.

... I am meant to be a professional. *sigh*
