On another forum I am a member of someone recently posted a thread like this, so I thought I would start one on here as I am interested in the demographics of those who use this forum.
So who are we and what do we do?
Well I currently am the Director of a crisis management company, we deal with various things but mostly maritime security and various forensics contracts for the government. Prior to this I have been an Overseas Security Adviser for the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (this role was very James Bond), I had various jobs before that while I was in university (PhD Forensic Medicine).
I used to live in Chelsea but have recently moved out to the country.
My favorite Bond film is Skyfall and book is probably Carte Blanche (sorry...)
Anyway, look forward to finding out more about everyone.

I'm Sam, age 32, ex-pat Hong Konger and now living in Australia (since 1990). I'm a lawyer working for a firm that specialises in intellectual property law. Used to be in the Australian Air Force Cadets, both as a cadet and as an instructor. Also previously worked in the freight forwarding industry.
Favourite Bond film: From Russia With Love
Favourite Bond book: Moonraker
That's me in a nutshell.
I'm from that wonderful part of the world, know for brotherly love, forgiveness and
Understanding. ................................. N.Ireland, or Ulster, 8-) ( we can't even agree
on the name )
I'm a professional Photographer, Married for 21 years have two daughters, and like
Goldfinger I turn the big 50 later this year.
I got into Bond very early, hooked since before my teens, my Favourite Film, OHMSS
Favourite Book, also OHMSS ( Moonraker 2nd )
Before taking the plunge to go self-employed I did many odd and dead end jobs, but as
I always was a " pain in the butt " employee, I like to think that like Bond, I was not meant
to be a team player.
And that's me in a straightjacket.
I got hooked on Bond by watching TSWLM on early cable TV in 1978, but my favorite film is OHMSS, with GF in second place. A few years ago, I was looking through old photo albums and diaries that my mother wrote "to" me when I was an infant, and I discovered much to my delight that my first movie ever was GF at a drive-in with my parents in early 1965. So, there must have been something subliminal that led me back to Bond 13 years later.
I also love crossword puzzles, music, jogging, cooking, making/consuming cocktails, and watching sports of any kind, my strongest allegiances being the Minnesota Vikings ( X-( ) and Newcastle United FC ( X-( X-( X-( X-( ).
How does someone born and raised in Orange County become a Newcastle supporter? I know the weather is almost identical, but beyond that...
My name is Martin, (Marty to my marras)I am from Durham (never call us Geordies
" I don't listen to hip hop!"
I'm a working musician, playing bass, piano or guitar as required (my avatar is really me, playing a Fender Telecoustic*), and have a small army of children and grandchildren.
* a much maligned guitar. I have two**, it's a fantastic instrument when set up and treated properly. It sounds like sh1t unplugged, but amplified it's the best!
** Standard and DeLuxe. The Deluxe is the better guitar, but the Standard (pictured) weighs about as much as a sheet of A4 and genuinely feels like it's part of your arm. Avoid the Squier. The Acoustasonic version is probably even better, but it's beyond my price range.
Well, that last Part is false
Good to see members from all across the world
OK, I guess I failed at being brief!
Grew up watching Bond on Tv. I remember when Goldeneye came out at the cinema when I was 12 I was super excited! Goldeneye is still my favourite. I think I spent everyday of high school playing the N64 game! The reason I became a filmmaker was because I made it my ambition to direct the 30th James Bond film. I've recently got it to prop collecting. My FE Golden Gun.
