Julie Re | 4 comments This is in reference to "My Story".

Mary is 92. So Holmes is 132 years old? I have had relatives who were driving at an advanced age, and Mary is Mary, so fine. But 132?

I am not nitpicking. I buy into the relationship 150% - the series is one of my favorites. I re-read them in between releases, because they are just that good.

Help.

Merrily | 6 comments Julie, well the conventional wisdom among Sherlockians is that Holmes clearly is still alive, because there has been no obituary in the Times, if he'd died, they would know. Others think that both he and Russell are still living thanks to their regular taking of Royal Jelly from Holmes' bees. Speaking for myself, I like to think of them living somewhere in Sussex, happy in their cottage....even if they are defying the laws of normal aging.
