You are invited!
NEXT MEETING
“Come if convenient. If inconvenient, come all the same.” (CREE)
The next irregular gathering of Watson’s Tin Box of Columbia, MD, will be held to discuss topics both Canonical and Conanical.
DATE: June 15, 2026
TIME: 7:00 p.m. (please come early for "social time" if you wish)
LOCATION: Union Jack's British Pub, 10400 Little Patuxent Pkwy, Columbia, MD 21044
RESERVATIONS: To RSVP, please email [email protected] by noon on Friday, June 12, 2026.
TOASTS
Things traditionally begin with a toast to The Woman. The Gasogene often opens the floor for extemporaneous toasts on a story-related theme, so be on your toes! There are no other regularly scheduled toasts, but if you have one you'd like to give, contact the Gasogene.
THE ADVENTURE DU JOUR
Our story of the month is "The Missing Three-Quarter" from The Return of Sherlock Holmes. Debbie Clark will share Paul Churchill's "evidence box" of related artifacts (both genuine & "genuine faux") before we talk about the story. Lively discussions are a signature feature of Tin Box meetings; we hope you'll join in!
THE EVENING'S PRESENTATION
Our esteemed presenter is Liane Luini. Liane joined Watson's Tin Box in February, 2025 and hit the ground running. She serves as the Mastermind at the Center of the Web Site and editor for the recently revived journal, Irene's Cabinet. In her previous life she was a dog trainer and Nosework handler which makes her eminently qualified to speak on Canine Scentwork in the Canon.
THE KILLER QUIZ
Okay, it won’t kill you, and you might even find it fun. We end the night with a quiz on the month's story. Share your knowledge with your fellow Tin Boxers, and maybe win a prize!
If you have a bit of Sherlockian scholarship or entertainment you’d like to share with the group at some future meeting, please contact your friendly neighborhood Gasogene at [email protected].
UPCOMING MEETING DATES AND STORIES:
We hope to see you on June 15th!
