    Due to the ongoing virus situation ...... A long while ago my Wife learnt that her
    Tom Jones concert had been cancelled. Given her level of Fandom for him, I think
    Sir Tom had a lucky escape ;)

    I posted some thing similar elsewhere but I wonder if anyone agree that if Sean Connery had not been given the part of James Bond and it had gone to one of the other actors who were considered, that Doctor No and the series as a whole would not have been the hit it became?

    I think it was Connery's force of personality and his real life masculinity that carried the film through to be the great success it was.

    This may be of interest.

    Thank you. I will read this.

    From listening to a Radio 4 comedy quiz I discovered that Norway has no
    McDonalds restaurants where as Sweden has a Ski through one ;)

    We felt some tremors from the earthquake, a little earlier. The epicentre was about 150 miles north of here. My earthquake app records it at 5.1 on the scale. It’s an odd feeling, just some vibrations, no damage anywhere here.

    I told Mrs CHB, that I could still make the earth move for her :D
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    :)) It's important to keep the romance alive. I remember being told to keep things fresh and
    to go for it when the notion occurred. So one night over the fishfingers we went for it., ... very
    invigorating, ..... although we can never use that Supermarket again ;)

    This man should definitely be hired by the BBC to read the football results.

    At least he doesn't have the dreaded regional accent that often afflicts modern-day BBC presenters. :D

    With N.Ireland now going in to a fortnight's Lockdown, I'll have more time
    on my hands, to research NP's face mask porn ! ;)

    In September. a friend and I went to Wales for the day and when we got there suddenly couldn't remember if we were supposed to travel from England to Wales. :)) So I suggested we just put on a Welsh accent and we'd be fine!

    I was very happy to see the prices realised at Ewbanks Auctioneers, yesterday. 2 DN posters sold at £13k and £22k each, a TB poster sold for £4.2k and a YOLT poster went for £3.6k. These were all original UK quad posters, of which I have posters from the first 7 Bond movies in my collection, so it’s nice to see how much they are getting.

    An OP poster signed by Roger Moore went for £2k.
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    My dad knew the cinema manager and he used to give him a packet of cigarettes in exchange for the posters and front-of-house stills each week. A very nice deal as it turns out :D

    Radio 4 is wrong! We have 71 MacDonalds in the country, so there is no need to rescue us from our communist opressors :))
  • The Spy Who Never DiesThe Spy Who Never Dies UKPosts: 644MI6 Agent
    You need rescuing from the crappy MacDonalds burgers instead!

    Welcome back N24 (always have to stop myself typing N64!). Hope your pc issues are resolved.

    I am accusing them of fake news. But unlike someone else who often accuses media of being fake it's because they are proven wrong, not because I dislike what they wrote. In fact I don't visit McDonalds every year, so I wouldn't mind if there were no McDonalds here :D
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    :))
    You should see the queues for our local McDonalds they're huge, I can't see the attraction myself.

    I’ve no idea when the first McDonalds was opened in Norway but that Radio4 program was originally from 2016...

    The first McDonalds in Norway was opened in 1983, beating the Soviet Union by seven years. Yay! :))

    A Swedish man in his fourthies was found being kept hidden by his mother in her house since he was twelve!
    A relative sneaked into the house while the mother was shopitalized, suspecting something was wrong. She described the inside of the house as "something from a horror movie". It ws dark and it didn't seem to having been washed or even tidied up in decades. The man was on a rug on the floor, presumable his "bed". He recognized his relative and whispered her name. The man was taken directly to a hospital and operated on. He was severely undernorished, had no teeth and could barely talk. He had been a prisoners in his childhood home for 28 years :o

    Perhaps, when he realises what is happening in 2020, he will wish he had never been rescued?!
