	A quiz based on a case, chosen at the previous meeting, from the Canon with each member providing three questions.

	Discussing the latest Holmesian news - which includes reviews of the latest books, audio cassettes and DVDs.
	Investigating Holmesian games and quizzes.
	A learned discussion on some aspect of the Canon. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
