Because that's the first half of D1 Ben/Audrey for me

I think its the background of them being childhood friends it just niggles in the back of my mind nowadays...if leah hadn't gotten in Audrey's head....how close did those two come to actually being a really sweet ship....

"I clapped a pistol to his head." The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet. Published in The Strand Magazine. Sidney Paget, 1892

I mean, I can see why you'd use the weather to help draw conclusions, but after constructing a whole extra marriage for Watson just to get some married cases into 1887, why does he abandon Mary Morstan for the whole of 1890?

He accepts the standard 'put three cases in 1890' restriction, and then picks Wisteria Lodge, Silver Blaze, and Beryl Coronet. These aren't even ambiguously-married stories. WIST opens with Holmes and Watson at lunch in Baker Street, SILV has Watson sitting around for 'a whole day' while Holmes paces and tries to decide whether to take the case, and BERY has the two of them looking out of the window one morning when the client arrives. He puts them in March, September, and December.

In case you're wondering, Prince Albert Edward, later Edward VII, did have money problems. He was not only living an extravagant lifestyle, he was having to do a lot of royal duties due to the effective retirement of his mother. He got money from Parliament for the latter, but arguably not enough and didn't want to ask for more as it would result in some awkward discussions re the former. The Prince of Wales does have a big personal estate called the Duchy of Cornwall, but income from the latter had dropped a fair bit due to an agricultural slump.

So, he borrowed from rich friends and twice used Sandringham - his personal property and still owned by Charles III outright - as collateral.

Two of his financial supporters - Rothschild and Hirsch - were Jewish and he rewarded their aid by inviting them into high society, which was pretty progressive in a time of rampant antisemitism.
