Christmas Eve is over in most of the civilized world. :v I hope you've enjoyed it and the loot is bountyful.
BTW: "Spy - counterspy" by Dusko Popo is great! I've never before read a book that isn't James Bond but still feels so Bondian. I'm just reading about when Ian Fleming tried to tail Popov in Lisbon, including at the Casino. :007)
Thought I'd call in for a quick snifter and wish you all a very merry Christmas. I hope you all have a wonderful time in whatever way makes you happy. -{
Thank you Gents, the pleasure is mine as always.
True to form, I am currently ensconced with boxing day bond film (tld) some cheese, biscuits and panettone -{
No Bond related presents but my daughters did buy me a navy cardigan which ( I'm
guessing by accident ) looks very similar to the one worn by DC in QOS. Although
with my girth, ..... on me it looks like two Daniel Craigs in it
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
Having a very lazy day today watching a Michael Cain double bill on BBC2 ... just done The Ipcress Files, now onto The Eagle Has Landed.
It's actually nice to watch a couple of movies that aren't all green screen and special effects. Shame that Donald Sutherland was never chosen as a Bond villain. Still, Donald Pleasance did a marvellous job.
An hour ago I was sitting in front of the stove in my suit, eating Christmas cookies and reading my new copy of "Some kind of hero". Life wasn't bad :007)

Not in the league of either of the two movies Lady Rose mentions, but maybe worth a watch. It also stars John Vernon, another "Bond villain who got away".

Today I saw something strange. The neighbour has a swimming pool in the garden, or more accurately a pool with river water in it where he can practice rolling his kayak and the kids can play. Today I noticed he was standing next to the pool looking a bit lost while his mother, around 75 years old, wading in the pool with her legs bare while she was raking the pool. Yes, with a rake. It turned out my friend somehow had managed to drop his glases in the pool and his mother was searching for it and later actually found it. I know the woman has spoken in tongues in the past, but I think this was stranger.
I need something to fortify myself - can I have a large glass of the usual, please.

I don't think I've seen that. I'll look out for it.
I'll have one too. Isn't it a bit cold for that sort of thing right now?
Yes, after a while she had to take a dip in the hot tub her son had also buildt in the garden. He has also installed a zip line and a tent he strapps up between trees so it hovers in mid air in the garden. My friend likes to have a project each summer.
Living a bit of the Bond lifestyle ( from the novels anyway )
Sitting in an airport departure lounge, people watching.
Only instead of a vodka martini, I'm drinking a coke
..... just waiting for a sexy lady in distress to sit opposite
Me.

I'm on the left, as my band bring in the new year near Loch Lomond. It was a great night!
(The wigs were being passed around the audience and at one point we ended up wearing them)
No Time To Diet !
Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!
The word was „....cut“
Not amount
