Sherlock in a Blanket

You know those Sherlock coat pastries that Rakka made? Yeah, well there was some left over phyllo and turkey bacon. And we had some turkey dogs. So...
Yeah, Sherlock in a Blanket. Damn if it wasn't salty.

It might be a strange thing, but even though we watch tv a lot at the casa, we rarely just watch some tv. Some random pbs show about sherlock holmes shows us this. WTF is that space tube?
That's a bit of London that neither Rakka nor I can leave mysterious. So back it up to the long shot.
Right, so we're looking west from somewhere near the river. Maybe near the eye? That looks like a train station. What station is over there? Waterloo, right. So to google maps.
And there it is. Google says it is London Waterloo East. And wikipedia says of the station "An elevated walkway across Waterloo Road connects it to London Waterloo station and provides the main access." and shows basically the same shot as the show.
This weird jetsons-esque pedway gets you most of the way from waterloo to waterloo east, where a victorian era foot bridge seems to take over.
You can see it from the ground from under waterloo road, or just on google maps.
And inside views are available on this nationalrail interactive map.
We don't have the history yet. That might take actual books from actual libraries, or talking to people. The internet still has limits. We will have to send out our crack field archaeologists, namely us. For now, back to the show.
