"Peekaboo"

Hiii, just wanted to say hi and ask how your Halloween was?

Have a lovely day/night

- Jam 🐝 ✨️

Hellow Jam, thank you very much for asking! It always makes me happy to see your little frogger picture!

My Hallowe'en season has been bonkers! I was burnt out from Inktober and also the case-of-internet-identity drama came right on its heels.

It's fine, I'm fine, at least I can have a laugh making Sherlock memes about it!

The most spooky thing I did this year was make a bunch of costumes for my stuffed Purrlock and rant about how Kindle had the AUDACITY to recommend me a Christmas romance on November 1st. Me, whose library is full of rubbishy vampire fiction side by side with Victorian horror classics! All good fun.

I hope you had a good halloween & a lovely day/night!

In my opinion one of the best and hilarious scenes ever!

Sherlock and Dr Watson learn BSL from a Hearing Dogs tutor

“Meeting Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman

“Benedict (and his famous cheekbones) was suffering from a bad cold, but he sat down and got straight on with it. He was really interested in BSL and asked intelligent questions about how signs are created, and about people signing the wrong thing by mistake.

“A few weeks later, Anna and I sat in Martin’s comfortable kitchen and he made us a cup of tea and learnt his lines in BSL. We then watched him mixing up a bowl of food for one of his dogs. It was a very frosty morning and his children were running in and out with pieces of ice and frosted leaves to show him. It was so normal and homely.  Martin picked up BSL remarkably quickly – unlike his character Dr Watson.”
