Author's Notes: July 22nd prompt: While You were Out.

When Dr Watson returned from his afternoon walk he found a calling card pinned to the sitting room door.

The strange markings on the front included five staves, a treble clef, and a single note completing a musical bar. Watson carefully examined them before turning the card over. The verso was printed “Sherlock Holmes.”

Watson knew enough about musical notation to decipher the bar to read b-sharp. His fellow-lodger was not at home but another card was pinned to Watson’s armchair.

"Watson, you asked me to leave you a note if I was going out. (Take that, you irredeemable punster!)"


.oOOo.
