Another Holmes and Watson Tale

A pun from Jim Macaulay. Thanks.


When Sherlock Holmes was a boy, he attended the somewhat obscure Ella School for Boys just outside of London. Last year, when Holmes and his friend, Dr. John Watson, were attending Holmes’ 40th reunion of his graduation from Ella, Watson noticed that all of Holmes’ old classmates seemed to be just milling about. Watson inquired of Holmes, “Why do all your classmates seem to be lollygagging about?”

Holmes replied, “Ella men tarry, my dear Watson.”
