Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective - Solution

                    Each solution consists of three parts:

ùDate: the date of the newspaper appropriate to the crime. For some reason, the
                           game never tells you this!

  ùVisits: the set of addresses you must visit before you are allowed to appear
    before the judge. Some addresses can be visited by either Holmes or the
Irregulars, in which case they should be visited by the Irregulars for a higher
  score. Such addresses are listed under 'Irregulars'. Some addresses, on the
                other hand, must be visited by Holmes in person.

   ùAnswers: the answers to supply to the judge. Only look here if you must!
