I saw this video about a shop in Paris that is the only place in Europe that still repairs umbrellas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNsrU-t0lf0
Clearly Mycroft is a patron. Did his umbrella get broken in a sexual act? While he was out doing tedious field work? Does he fly to Paris himself to get his umbrella repaired? I don't know, anon, please tell me! (I personally also like the idea of Lestrade finding out about the shop and getting some sort of special modification done for his lover's umbrella. Yay Mystrade!)
