All my best wishes to you as well.
We sure will. Barry is one of the selfless, truly good people in life. He's helped me out with things here too when I needed help. Hopefully everything will work out for the best for him in the end. I wish him all the very best for the future.
I have already resigned myself to the situation and life goes on, I won’t waste it on the past and what can’t be fixed.
Thanks so much ,no time for being morbid in 007’s world !!
Damn, man. I'm feeling anger and sadness at the same time. But you have come out of this as the one with the most dignity. You were there for Jade when she needed you. You were the better person when the ex stabbed you in the back by moving on and staying yourself. You showed them and many of us what a fine bloke you are.
Things are messed up and none of this is fair. There's no comfort in any of this. But you're a good man, a respected veteran and a great contributor. The way I know you, your ex and her daughter lost you, not the other way around.
And you have what they'll never have: a true family. Welcome to MI6, my good friend.
You know what you say means so much to me, you and everyone here are so important in my life.
You are all such lovely people and as DD @DarthDimi says - we are a family and to me it shows how the world can unite over a common love: 007 in our case.
I have lost a daughter for sure now and no going back,along with a stepdaughter and most of my money ,but I have self respect and pride in saving her from cancer , What more can I do , and I have my Vangie now for 4 years now x I can never trust again after 15 years of marriage but she makes me laugh so much and I’m happy x btw I love the lot of you xxxx
.
Cheers Thunderfinger! Appreciate it.
Hang in there, and remember you've got a Bond community of friends here on your side.
I’m used to it my friend,I’ve moved on,just had a wobble hearing what my daughter has done,and her ‘mother’ has let her.
Thank you anyway,as always,you are a good good friend.
I've been getting increasingly bored and frustrated in my current job for a long time now, and I'm looking forward to a change and a challenge (and slightly better pay).
My start date is September 16th, which is also my 42nd birthday. Interesting times!
It must be fate !!
Well done for taking your life by the horns and changing direction.
And good luck,gal !!
That's great news @Agent_99 - sounds like a needed change. I know you work in the book trade if I remember correctly? Are you in the same industry still?
On the subject, I started a new job just last week, doing production work and driving the forklift. Not a dream job, but it's close to home, the people are great and there's a casual, 'work at your own pace' attitude. Best of all, the pay is amazing, so now I can finally buy real nice things. I'm looking at you, Bond25
In my case i have also relocated to another country just two month ago and it only just started to feel like i'm setteling in. Thankfully the company i work for is pretty nice.
Forklift....but...but...you're Q !!!
Does it have a secret button that turns it into an invisible,inflatable,armour plated,champagne holding,flying car ?
From which countries did you leave/arrive ?
From Hamburg (TND) to Vienna (TLD) :)
I just needed a change... i guess a slightly bigger one.
Well remembered, @Major_Boothroyd - not the book trade as such (I write and edit website content) but I had an unsuccessful interview at a publisher last year.
And good stuff, @QBranch; a short commute and nice colleagues are what I look for in a job, too.
Very nice too !
Well how do you think I got the jet up there? ;)
Lol no, but it's an old forklift, so when I put my foot down it activates the smokescreen.
Thank you, mate. I really miss my last job from just a few weeks back, I had a blast working with mostly young women all day haha, but sadly the place is closing down due to lack of profit. That's life though, and I'm excited to see what this new phase will bring!
Congrats on moving to Vienna, that must be amazing! I bet you keep asking yourself whether it's real or just a dream. I take it you've been to Prater park? I have a postcard from there - the same one a certain blonde cellist bought there.
I bet lol.
Yeah i had a dream job in Hamburg too, traveling all around the world to Bond locations, but my company didn't make any money after a while (and me burning a ton of money for travel expenses probably didn't help either :-? )
I still have moments where i walk outside the door and go like "oh damn, i'm in Vienna!?" Yeah it happens. The Opera house where the sniper scene was shot is in my neighbourhood, 3 minutes from my apartment. Crazy stuff.
I'll start working as a TLD travel guide, so if anyone is in town, just let me know :))
Congratulations Agent_99! I wish you well on your new venture!! :-bd
@Birdleson, he likes Bond but he's not as into the whole thing as I am. Luckily he's OK with being dragged to Bond locations, on Bond-themed London walks, etc.
Keep hold of him, sounds like a good one! :)) :-bd
One is going to be a handmade hankerchief business and one is going to be selling Japanese Sando (Sandwiches) in my home town.
And that's where I need your help. Bond has had two or three visits to Japan I believe and I'd love to do a Bond Sando. Meat or Veggie I don't mind but what I'd like is can you come up with some names for this Bond inspired Sando? This Sando will be 100% made and I'll credit the member on the website when it's sold.
Looking forward to your reply and thank you.
First of all, @conradhankers, I admire that you are willing to take good care of your wife to the point of giving up your job. It means you are a loving and dedicated husband. From the bottom of my heart, I hope she's making good progress. I also hope your businesses will supply you with what is needed and provide some professional satisfaction as well, of course.
I'm not a terribly creative person, but since the Japanese were the ones to nickname Bond "Mr Kiss Kiss Bang Bang", I believe, how about a "Kiss Kiss Ham Ham"? I bet a "Little Nellie" can be used for pretty much everything. A "Hollowed-Out Volcano" for a really spicey sandwich perhaps? :) I dunno... Like I said, not a very creative person. ;-)
