When you are watching a Superman animated movie and notice that Lex Luther's prison jumpsuit number is 221, I freaked out a bit

Re: You know you're obsessed with Sherlock when...
.....When you are watching an old episode of Quantum Leap (talk about cheesy 80's fun ;D) and Sam's tensely standing up to a guy who responds to his threat with 'No... no, you talk big....' and you immediately fill in the rest of the line in Moriarty's voice. ;D

The quote mentioning Moffat is from The Adventure of the Resident Patient.
Love the snowmen girls. Maybe a yellow ball with a smiley face drawn on in pen would have looked ok?

You know you've too often got certain characters in your head when.... ;PP
You immediately think of one person after seeing this. ;)

Ha... cute... Made me laugh.... I was more picturing it as Sherlock as a young boy! (planted the seed early, and all!)

Yeah, does that mean Mycroft is the one on the slide?
(What am I saying? Of course it's not, Mycroft probably would have got stuck halfway down or he'd be blackmailing the ice cream man for free cones or something.)

Speedy's is an absolute must, every London trip.
Next time I'm even hoping they're filming when I'm there!

You mean Street view? Yeah, that's great. Have been visiting many places using Street view. ;-)

You get ridiculously excited when Sherlock is mentioned in a question on Eggheads and Andrew Scott is the correct answer.

Love the comic, immediately thought of the little boy as Sherlock, and if you change the words so it doesn't say 'son' then it could even be Mycroft giving his little brother some advice!

Isn't it wonderful that those relatively insignificant things can make us happy?

When you are walking to school and pass by a trash can (it was trash pick up day) and notice the number on the bin was 1895, immediately thinking of Sherlock!
