Got some random goodies from the hardware store tonight. :D

Some rafter vents for a cool sci fi wall design.


And a set undergravel filters for a nice grated floor.

STAR FOX!!! My namesake haha!

I got the whole team. ;)

Man that’s awesome. I own all the games and replay many pretty frequently. A part of childhood I can’t let go of.

Murdock

Thanks, I have most of the games myself. When Jakks started making the Star Fox characters for their World of Nintendo action figure line, I just had to nab them. :D

Question: Can I stop being a Bond fan? I think it's physically impossible.

Tokoloshe

How could anyone not adore this lady?

This will always be my favorite bit about Judi (NSFW language):

I thought it would be something kinky.

No, but one of the last hobbies I'd expect from Dame Judi Dench. I'd pay good money for one of those.

I always view Judi as a sort of sweet and slightly innocent grandmotherly figure, so I was caught off guard when she naughtily praised Daniel on the size of his...little soldier that she somehow got a peek at on the set of one of the Bond films while Dan was getting dressed (apparently their rooms were close together).

"It’s an absolute monster! Maybe I shouldn’t have said that. How uncouth of me!"

I've never looked at her the same way again. ;)

I wonder if she knows what he can do with his little finger.

I'm not sure if there's a going away/coming back thread. Anyway, on a personal level, it's been a tough few months for me. I have had neither the time nor inclination to even bother with my computer, let alone visit MI6. Things don't seem to be getting any better, but I thought I'd check in to have a scan through the site.

@stag, that thread is right here:

https://www.mi6community.com/discussion/231/going-away-or-coming-back/p81

It's up to you whether or not you want to share what you've been going through, but know we're here for you regardless and I hope things get better.

Thunderpussy

Sorry to hear @Stag if you ever want to just have a chat etc, please PM me.
I hope this will pass for you soon. As the old expression says . Whatever
Doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

Sympathy and well wishes!

Thank you for your comments. All I wish to say is that I suffered a great personal loss. It is a tragedy from which I am struggling to recover - if indeed I ever will.

Also @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7, thanks for the link. I'll repost there where my original message was intended to go.

Murdock

GoldenEye stunt done for real. This was awesome.

Eon will be delighted to have another market (to try not to offend)!

Thunderfinger

I doubt they will be showing Bond there.

Women drivers! They should start with TSWLM and go from there!

I think I read 75% of the moviegoers are 30 and under, so I figure the likes of superhero fare, Bond, and action flicks in general may fare well in the country come March (that's when the first theaters open, not sure how long it'll take for them to open SA-wide).

This Vision 2030 plan is already looking promising and gaining a ton of steam. Interesting times we live in.

I wish I could go to the movies more frequently, but they are too darned expensive. Therefore I usually only go to the ones I look forward to the most.

I only go to see the movies I'm 95% sure I'll love now. A bit too expensive and time consuming to take gambles anymore and waste an entire day's outing on a bad movie.
