GH stands for Gregory Holmes and, yes, it's because he's married to Mycroft Holmes.

I'm sorry. It was my fault - Rosie

No. It was my fault - GH

No. It was my fault. Please forgive me, Uncle Myc - Rosie

Just one of you tell me what happened - MH

We were running about the house playing tag and it happened - GH

What happened? - MH

I knocked over some paint and ruined your suit - Rosie

It's fine. I'll be able to wash it out or get a new one - MH

About that - GH

Gregory Holmes, tell me - MH

It was the suit - GH

Which suit? - MH

The one you wear to every important meeting you have, especially like the one you have tomorrow morning - GH

Have you tried to get it out? - MH

About that - Rosie

Rosie Watson-Holmes, tell me - MH

We tried to get it out but it just smudged and we made it worse - Rosie

How could you have been so clumsy? I can't leave you two alone without you ruining something! - MH

I'm sorry, Uncle Myc - Rosie

Same. I'm sorry, babe - GH

Apologies won't fix my ruined suit, will it? - MH

Good job it's just a prank then - GH

Oh my croft. Are you sure you haven't put paint on my suit? - MH

Yes. Of course we are - Rosie

Send me a picture - MH

[One picture attached]

See, it's not ruined - GH

Then what's that blue paint doing on the side of my suit! - MH

Where? - GH

On the right hand side - MH

Oh shit - GH

Gregory, language! - MH

Sorry - GH

I'm so sorry, Uncle Myc. I swear we don't know how that got there. We promise we didn't actually ruin your suit - Rosie

Well, it doesn't look that way to me - MH

I'll pay for a new suit - GH

That's not the point. I need that suit for tomorrow! You're going to have to sleep on the sofa tonight or I may just stay late at work because I can't deal with you right now - MH

Love, please don't do this. I'm sorry - GH

I'm sorry. I can't keep this up anymore - MH

What do you mean? - Rosie

I pranked you back. You haven't ruined my suit. It's actually part of the design - MH

Thank God. So, I'm not sleeping on the sofa tonight? - GH

Of course you're not. You're sleeping in our bed with me - MH

Good - GH

You scared the hell out of me - Rosie

Next time you won't prank me unless you want me to prank you back ten times harder - MH

Message definitely received - GH

Yeah, we definitely won't be pranking you again any time soon - Rosie
