Poor Watson, you just know he'll spend half the evening removing stings from his ditzy husband. "Poor chap, if only you'd had a beekeeper's veil - oh wait, you DO, resting undisturbed in the garden shed where it couldn't protect you!"
"Ow. I hate wearing it, it obstructs my view. Ow. Ow."
I do so love the subtle colour scheme - especially the green of the curtains, sill and plant pots, and the touch of pink. And I love the fact the picture tells such a clear story - we're all completing it for ourselves, imagining the impending disaster and caught between laughing, and sympathising with Holmes. Poor Watson's expression is brilliant ^^
Watson's aghast, and it's hilarious. The expressions are priceless. The determination you've given Holmes in just the angle of a line or two is remarkable!
Holmes: It's perfectly safe to handle a swarm. Watson: *Points at dubiously-secured ladder with the dodgy rung, leaning on the thinnest branch of the tree.* Holmes: *cough* Well...
Holmes isn't wearing any protective gear!! It's good Watson has long experience with facing danger. His expression says he might have had enough though!
This comic basically sums up the duo even in retirement: "Poor Watson. Silly Holmes" XD It's funny how Holmes manages to freak his friend out after all these years - I suspect this won't be the last time Watson attends to his friend's wounds while trying not to strangle him...

Thank you!!!
