    Will there be an assistant sitting on the back of the wagon texting on her blackberry?

    Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?

    I would think so. She can also help groom the horse!

    Re: Sherlock Planning John's Bucks Night

    it is a cringeworthy thought really, isn't it? All of it...

    I guess sherlock would go for a party-by-numbers approach based on what he'd actually like. But I can't work out what that would actually be. My best guess has Mrs Hudson masterminding the whole thing and prompting Sherlock to try to take an interest but quite obviously failing.

    Also, yk, John seems to have surprisingly few friends really and all of them through Sherlock except Mike Stanford.

    Oh but I have just realised-might we then see Harry? (I know stag nights are traditionally male but...or maybe we'd see her at the bride's hen night?). Harry is played by Catherine Tate isn't she? That's not at all controversial ;-)

    If its any consolation stag nights are far from universal in the UK, I wouldn't assume he had to have one, loads of people don't nowadays.

    I could absolutely picture Mrs Hudson doing all the planning because Sherlock would be too distracted with some case. Then I could imagine everyone sitting around but Sherlock running out to solve some crime and John following, leaving everyone else there twiddling their thumbs.

    Lestrade would probably organise a good buck's night. Sherlock not so much.

    Haha this prediction came true! But was not nearly as exciting as Davina's scenario involving Mycroft in a carriage & Sherlock hunting for leprechauns

    I was thinking of this the other day.
    Sadly, I was totally wrong.
    I still consider stag nights(as we call them) the lowest form of life...

    Well, I don't see what you can do about it, besley. No point complaining about it now! 

    I think the stag night was fantastic!

    The only question I have about John's stag night is: where were the rest of his friends?

    Yep, my obvious question, too.
    Sherlock maybe thought he could better control just John!

    I was surprised Lestrade was not part of the stag pub crawl.
    I would have thought that Janine would have organized a fabulous, funny, outrageous hen night for Mary, but I don't recall it was even mentioned.

    I don't think so. She looked as shocked as John at Sherlock's little deduction.
