Call it Small Comfort
Mar. 11th, 2010 05:14 pmMy Dear Watson,
I write to congratulate you upon your vindication, and to thank you for the medical efforts you made on my behalf. I am convalescing in France. You may read in the papers that I have taken on a case for the French government, but as that task requires a pilgrimage to every spa and watering place the country has to offer, my full recuperation is assured. It will amuse you to learn that I have a young French policeman dangling at my heels, whose sole commission appears to be the mention of mealtimes at appropriate intervals.
