When I was at lunch with a group of people the other day we did a NZ newspaper's daily quiz. One of the questions was what job did Sherlock Holmes have after he retired from solving crimes?
We ended up in a big discussion about it like he was a real person.

Got up early to try to get some marking done, and read an essay on Sherlock Holmes that was so good I went and read it twice. After a not very nice few weeks at work, it is lovely to be reminded that this is what it is all about. So proud of this student. 😊
