I know it´s an off-topic, but my friend "invented" a football team called "Surreal Magritte". just came to my mind, sorry for OT again

... when you open Google and automatically type 'Benedict Cumberbatch' even though you wanted to look for something else entirely.

Mrs.Wenceslas · April 24, 2013 9:26 pm

yes. that awkward moment...when you are searching something on google with hubby behind your shoulder, you write a first letter and there is automatically "benedict cumberbatch", "sherlock" etc., because of your previous searching..

Happens to me as well. Or the awkward moment when you're not alone and open tumblr and forget it's Monday.

When you type Bene in Italian and your I-pad auto-corrects it to...(well you know)...Benedict.

...when you are at your in-house training on stress handling and can't help but wonder how Sherlock would behave if he were here or how John would answer this questionair on stress.

...when on said training you are supposed to imagine being in a special place and you end up on a chair in front of the fireplace, listening to violin music, smelling the left-over of chinese take-away and chemicals.

I haven't watched Game of Thrones but as I was writing it I was reminded of the meme of 'Boromir' saying that. Unfortunately Australian winters aren't as cold as European winters. But nothings stopping me wearing my scarf and imagining I'm Sherlock!
Or wearing a scarf and a striped jumper and imagining I'm John and Sherlock's love child... for all the Johnlock fans!

I hate how it doesn't get really cold in Australia, but like you I just wear the scarves and jumpers, and the gloves. My little brother tries to act like Sherlock, its so cute.

I have never seen snow. Way to many in my family. I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters.
I do want to move to England though.

Davina · April 26, 2013 6:20 am

It is raining here today. As usual. We'd like to visit Australia. Only two of the 'family' have made it so far.

I quite like the rain. I have family that live in England. And i may and my dad is pretty sure that our family is second cousins with Mat Smith. He thinks we are so yeah.

It only snows in a small part of Australia (probably a fairly good size compared to the UK but small compared to Australia). We are actually going to NZ to see snow. So I've already packed my scarf in anticipation of walking around in the cold imaging I'm Sherlock!

My life would be complete! I did read that they are doing some more filming for The Hobbit so the fact I'll be in the same country as Martin Freeman is pretty bloody exciting! I think I could pass as a hobbit... maybe they need some extras
