William Bradley, upon hearing the jingle of the door bell, set his tea to steep with a sigh. To his delight, one of his favourite customers waited.
‘Mr Holmes, I have been expecting you! I’ve prepared your usual order; one pound of the strongest shag, and half that amount in ‘ship’s.’
‘Thank you, Mr Bradley, but I’ll be switching cigarettes for the ‘ship’s’ this time.’
‘Dr Watson's not better then?’
‘No. Strong tobacco isn’t calming his cough at all. He’s requested something milder temporarily.’
‘Perhaps these would suit?’
Holmes examined a cigarette with his rare expertise, and nodded in approval.
