impulsereaderSo now I am Learning All About Cricket.
Is it OOC of Sherlock to be a decent bowler?
ETA - I have no idea what this means, but I'm having fun trying to puzzle it out...
The ball following a front foot no-ball will be a free-hit for the batsman, whereby he is safe from losing his wicket except for being run-out.
Edited again - sneering Mycroft aside, do we think the boys actually call their mother Mummy? as adults? I'm not sure I can make myself do that.

Date: 2012-05-28 08:26 pm (UTC)I could go with rugby, but Sherlock would just have to watch John play. Croquet on the lawn, perhaps. I am assailed by a visual of Sherlock on horseback.
Hm...thinky thoughts. I'm not entirely sure I want to write a sporting scene anyway. I'm just through the 'get them where they're going' and now I have to fill in to the already written 'trick John into accepting the role of Benedick and then reveal to him how seriously the Holmeses take this Shakespeare thing'.
Must fill with hi-jinks and flying bullets!

John was shot in the shoulder, and in the first episode of Sherlock he has a psychosomatic limp of which Sherlock neatly cures him.
