Hello everyone. I just post here to let my AJB friends know that I am still alive! (This news may disappoint some! ) )
My working hours are long as I volunteer for much over time. Working when on night duties, I have found I am sometimes able to listen to my collection of James Bond audio books and the radio plays which are down loaded from you tube (without affecting my work of course!)
I hope to return to AJB more often in the near future. As it is now my mind is focused on gaining promotion, either with this employer or another.
Always nice to hear from you Joshua {[] I have some experience of working nights etc.
I too listened to many audio books to help pass the hours
The night duties are frankly boring. I have little to do except for the occasional patrol and monitoring CCTV. It is good to be able to listen to books and radio plays. Time on a twelve hour night duty does really seem to stand still. Looking at my watch and it is 0045. Ten hours later I look again and it is 0100!
I finally joined this forum after years of perusing. I think I've signed up a few times, but never went all the way through the confirmation process.
I've been a Bond fan since the early 90's with James Bond Jr. (take it easy on me!) and at the time didn't realize there were a bunch of films too. I would have been too young to enjoy them much anyway.
Like many 80's kids, I re-discovered James Bond through Goldeneye N64, and the first film I saw in theaters was Tomorrow Never Dies. I've seen it and every film since with my Dad, it's a bit of a tradition.
When the No Time to Die release was postponed, I decided I would actually execute on my longtime plan to start a youtube series dedicated to the props of the series and how I make them. You can check the videos out here:
Currently there's only one video up, Honey's knife from Dr. No. I want to do about one per month, but I don't have access to my shop until this virus thing is over, so it may be a while before the next video.
Anyway, I look forward to spending quite a bit more time here and getting to know you all!
I've been reading here for a long time and thought it was about time I joined, especially with all the free time due to Lock down. My first Bond film was TSWLM and I've been hooked ever since. I don't really know much about posting so if I post in wrong place etc just let me know.
I'm still alive but have not been that active.
I've been working for MI6 as an undercover agent in Siberia for the past 10 years under the code name 005 and I've had limited internet reception.
It's always nice to see most of the exclusive 2002 club are still active here. Hardyboy, Moonraker 5, SiCo, Sir Miles.. -{
No offence to other members but if you didn't join in 2002 then you missed out on the good times when this forum was in it's golden age!
Things are looking good for No Time To Die! I strongly believe that it's going to be Craig's best Bond film. Most of you will be staying away from spoilers I imagine but let me tell you the spoilers that emerged yesterday are HUGE in context to the whole 007 series! I'm thinking of watching it at Pinewood Cinema within the studios.
Tried to get tickets to a Bondstars meet up at Pinewood earlier this year but it was cancelled because of Corona sadly. Will be great to go sometime and great if other forum members can make it.

I really value being able to overanalyse James Bond and learn about other spy fiction with all you zany characters.

Good night and best wishes to you all for now.

I dare not do that because I know you will then only visit AJB while wearing a face mask!

Maybe you can use a graphics program to lower the resolution?
