    Here's something a little different and might make some Bond fans' wish lists:
    Luxury lifestyle indeed. These glamourous holiday homes are in places where Bond movies were filmed (they have a brief list). Take a look at some places you could enjoy for a short or lengthy visit (if you had mega money - or moved in the same circles as James Bond).

    This one where some of Spectre was filmed:

    Gorgeous - that's going on my wishlist for sure! Have a lovely Christmas!

    Sweaters are usually a welcome gift during the holidays.

    I pulled the plutonium out of the one inside.
    You can detonate the triggers now.
    Down there it's all weapons-grade plutonium. Reasonably safe.
    Up here we've got hydrogen bombsthat your lab built leaking tritium ...
    ...which I've spent the last six months trying to clean up.
    твой английский очень хорош для русского
    They won't get very far.
    Every warhead has a locator card.
    We can track the signal.
    It's a tactical fission device. Low yield.
    Hold me steady.
    Look, half the plutonium in there is missing.
    There's still enough explosive there to kill both of us if the trigger charge goes off.
    ...the world's greatest terrorist
    running around with 6 kilos...
    ...of weapons-grade plutonium can't be good.
    Put weapons-grade plutonium
    in that sub's reactor...
    ...instant, catastrophic meltdown.
    Making it all look just like an accident.
    We're safe from the radiation...
    ...if the reactor coolant doesn't burst.
    If he had gotten
    the plutonium rod in the reactor...
    ...we could've written off the whole city.
    The hydrogen gas level's too high.
    One spark and the reactor'll blow.
    I have to stop it.
    The reactor is flooded.
    So it's safe even if this place blows.

    24th please. It would be good to collect the themes used/short description alongside the date is my suggestion.

    Hoping some old friends of the forum return as well.

    Just a thought, once the day is complete on the roll-up next to the person's name describe what was posted. OHMSS holiday wishes. YouTube snow action highlights. Christmas Jones tribute.

    I note some items become tradition with repeats from previous years becoming inevitable.

    I get you so in this particular year we are not repeating another members posts.

    Over the years indeed it was inevitable some things will get repeated. I intentionaly post one particular thing every year.

    Yeah I'm still open to the possibilities @Fire_and_Ice_Returns, if someone gets there first. All in fun.
