Dartmoor
Autumn 1889


‘That, Doctor Watson, is one of the many abandoned tin mines that dot the moor.’

‘Have you explored it?’

‘Yes, in fact this one has some very interesting features.  You’re not nervous of being underground, are you?’

‘No, not at all.’

‘Excellent! I happen to have some candles.’

‘Ha-ha!’

‘What’s so funny?’

‘Oh, just the thought of how quickly Sherlock Holmes would drop all his cases in London and fly here if something were to happen to me.’

‘Would he really do that?’

‘Indeed. He’d make Dartmoor his obsession.’

‘On second thought, perhaps this is not such a good idea.’

.oOOo.

Perhaps not such a good idea at all.... :)

Stapleton is my favourite villian and I wanted to have some fun with him!

Hmmm... Sounds like that might have been a particularly well-timed remark, on Watson's part!

Watson never did trust Stapleton, but he could not let his suspicions show!

Watson keeps his wits about him!

Hee hee! I liked this! A very light-hearted approach to deterring criminals.

Poor Stapleton has met his match in the seemingly unassuming doctor!
