Nice way to start the morning.

Today my colleague - who's sitting across from me in the office - asked me to bring a nice picture of Benedict which we can hang up (bless her!). That's because we weren't actually spoiled by optically appealing men, she said.
Right then.
Now for the ordeal of choice... Finally, we can't plaster all the walls with him. Could be distracting...

Oh, this is going to be difficult. You have an enormous amount of choice around here. No, I'm not going to mention braces. *whistling to myself*

You gonna pick one of him as Sherlock? With the nice hair? *hopes* Please let us know what you choose-- this sounds like great fun!

Maybe a Scandal-nice-hair-black-shirt-and-jacket one?

That, of course, was the first thing that sprang to my mind. But the whole SCANDAL is full of gorgeous pictures: The "How would you know" moment, the "Punch me in the face" and "On their way" bits, but also the Moriarty taxiride in FALL, the eyes in HOUNDS, the PILOT hair...
Yes, even the braces pics are not to be sniffed at either. Not at all!

This is so clever. Now we need what Mrs. Hudson thinks he does.

What an onerous task you have ahead of you -- having to sift through all those photos.

I definitely go for Sherlock -- in the PSoS, but it's your wall. Or Pilot Sherlock from your signature. Anyway, no matter which photo you pick, it will be so much nicer than a smiley face with bullet holes in it.

Oh, those braces!

If I have a chance to choose one of Ben's pictures, I will certainly choose one from PBS interview. He looks great there! . Or Ben in a blue suite. Or Ben-Sherlock with curls. I'm afraid I would be like a Buridan's ass , thanks God I don't have to choose

Well, I was feeling quite dizzy after having looked through all those pics.
As I couldn't opt for any of them I finally decided to take all of them on a memory stick to the office and let HER decide...

221B Baker Street · October 30, 2012 4:57 am

How mean you are , making your friend take that difficult choice

tobeornot221b · October 30, 2012 5:04 am

Mean... Oh, I wouldn't say that!
Finally, she will be presented with a collection of exceptionally gorgeous pictures.

221B Baker Street · October 30, 2012 5:12 am

Well, if she won't be able to choose the one, you can always make a collage

Mattlocked · October 30, 2012 7:07 am

Collage...hm... that's an idea
Would like to test my colleague and how much she can bear...

Not much work to be done in your office today, I suppose.

They will be much quicker with a nice picture on the wall. Or they can't work at all. Worth a try.

SusiGo · October 30, 2012 11:49 am

I know that I would be staring at the wall constantly. That's why I have no pictures of him in my study. The ones on the computer screen are "bad" enough.

I changed my desktop wallpaper from 'Ben' to a random one, because I couldn't concentrate on my work . My only desire was to close all the windows and gaze at Ben...

I have 3 cheerful ladies with quavers on my desktop at the moment. Just for a little while ...
