I was checking the price of "Jo Malone" candles ,for my wife,and found out that JO, used to live in my town (as a small girl)
now being the inquisitive person I am :D , I found out that Roger Moore used to live in Wansunt road Bexley,and Roald Dahl ,used to live in Hurst road Sidcup ,(both in the London Borough of Bexley for those of you not familiar with London.)
Does your home town ,have any Bond connections.
By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?

    Bond composer David Arnold was born in Luton. Colin Salmon was a pupil at Ramridge Primary School and then Ashcroft High School in Luton. At the same time I was a pupil at Sacred Heart Primary and Stopsley High. All those schools are within a mile of each other.

    I live in the North East. Was suprised to learn that Joe Robinson who played Peter Franks in DAF is a Geordie.
    Have you ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?"

    I was born in Amsterdam. Bond went to Amsterdam in DAF of course and it is also the birthplace and hometown of Jeroen Krabbé who played Koskov in TLD. Famke Janssen, who played Xenia in GE, was born right next to Amsterdam in Amstelveen.

    Roger Moore also lived in Harland Way, Southborough, near Tonbridge.
    I know the house, but cannot remember the number -{
