    Last night I watched Tomorrow Never Dies on TV. I must say that I was disappointed by the fight scenes. Bond looked slow to react and overall the scenes seemed lame. When I look at the same in OHMSS and indeed other films I believe this may have something to do with editing?

    Also, just for my own information, one small point. In German airports, are English language newspapers available, or was the Tomorrow newspaper just there for the benefit of the audience so they could read the headline?

    Yes, English language newspapers are available in German airports. They're not usually at the top of the display, though.

    The delights of barecueing in the fjords of Norway :D

    That table N24 is that "Pine in the fjords" ;)

    On an unrelated topic...... Last night with thunder storms we had to keep the
    Hound in the house, which got me to thinking ( I don't do it very often ).
    Do wolves etc get frightened by thunder and run away from their pack ?

    So far this year I've mowed the lawn while it was snowing and barbacued in the rain. Both made sense at the time. I wonder what's next ….

    The thermometer by my front door showed 33 degrees Celsius (more than 91 degrees Fahrenheit) today. This sort of temperatures is probably not big news where many of you live, but in case I've failed to mention it ( :)) ) I live in Norway. I'm not sure, but it might be an all time high record in this little hamlet where I live.

    Political thread ! :))

    So many Books to read, music to listen to, or play. Movies to watch
    odd jobs, posting on AJB007, listening to radio Comedy on BBC Radio 4,
    and of course, lots and lots of specialist Gentlemen's Interest images on
    the internet. :D

    Yesterday there was an attack on a mosque near Oslo by the only good type of terrorist - the failed one!
    The terrorist was clearly inspired by right-wing attacks in NZ and other places and was active in their internet communities.
    Luckily a brave 65 year old member of the mosque charged the terrorist before he managed to shoot anyone. He wrestled the 44 years younger terrorist to the ground and sat on him ( :)) ) until the police came.
    The tragic part of the story is that the terorist killed his own sister before he went to attack the mosque.

    I have now reached 2K posts on here. I'm having a lot of fun as an AJB007 member and chatting with you all about all things Bond. I haven't been as active on here as i'd like. Lack of Bond news and real life contribute to my inactivity.

    I hope to be more active on here. Really excited now that Bond 25 finally has a title! Very Flemingesque and Bondian. Looking forward to more news.

    Been on here 6 years. You're all awesome. All the best;

    I have seen a couple of films starring James Robertson Justice. I was unaware that he had a connection with Ian Fleming. His life was a full one, with many adventures so I hope you will like to read about his story here:

    Really liking the recent AJB interview threads!

    I think it's great that we get an opportunity to ask Bond cast and crew questions about thier time on the films that they worked on.

    I agree—It's amazing that we've been able to get access to all of these interviewees! Fantastic work with everything -{

    I think it's almost impressive to take a discussion on the Craig is Back-thread so far it has to be closed. I have first-hand experience in contributing to political threads being closed, but this is something else :))
    What's next? One of the clothing threads or perhaps the Shakespear thread?
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    It wasn't closed, ..... just "prorogued" ;)
