Re: Favourite Sherlock/Benedict pictures

Can any picture of that man really be considered purely innocent?

You guys have no idea how filthy I could be if I wasn't actually trying to behave myself.

Very descriptive. 'Course if our minds weren't in the gutter, we'd KNOW it just means a horse that's been ridden at a gallop until it's all lathered up and then should have been groomed, blanketed, fed and watered, not just left to stand there all dirty and sweaty and chilled. Oh oh, the description was worse than my gutterish imagination. OK, time to move along, nothing to see here  heh
