    You've got it, @CommanderRoss! :)
    I must run (literally bike) to train station right now but I will give answers to the clues later.

    Thanks @4EverBonded !That was a fun run! I'll put up my first clues soon if you don't mind in the mena time, for me it's time to go to bed ;-)

    Edit: so here are the two first clues:

    International rules are broken
    I give Bond what he wants, and yet he’s taking far more
    The other guy had far more fun when this happened
    Time is of the essence
    Where I come from, the indication is always perfect

    Incorrect guesses:

    Corinne Dufour
    Cigar girl from TWINE
    Miss Caruso
    Mollaka
    Numbutu embassy official
    Orlov
    Taxi driver AVTAK

    Is it the French-speaking official of the Nambutu embassy in CR... the guy in the yellow shirt who gets a bit of a headache?

    Finally getting back here. Longest I've ever done on this thread, so that's great for me.
    Happy you won, @CommanderRoss. I look forward to guessing forever again on this thread.

    Answers to my clues for Miss Taro are:

    1. I'm up, a pleasant enough beginning.
    She comes in as dutiful assistant to find files, helpful, pleasant, normal kind of encounter.

    2. Location, location, location.
    She gives Bond detailed instruction on how to get to her home.

    3. In spite of Bond's insistence, I resist.
    Bond firmly wants to take her out to a cafe or restaurant for a meal. She needs him detained there so more thugs can arrive to kill him. She tries to stall by saying she will cook for him.

    4. At one point, Bond surprises me.
    Actually, Bond surprised her twice - 1st he dramatically caught her eavesdropping, then he also surprised her by arriving at her home when she believed assassins would have already killed him before he got there.

    5. A ride in the countryside to see me.
    Bond's winding ride up the countryside hill to her home.

    @4EverBonded Yep, I got them all except the first one.
    Not orlov, not the official at the official at the nambutu embassy. Good guesses though. New clue:
    The other guy had far more fun when this happened

    The Soviet Embassy Worker (FRWL)?

    There you go, well done! Over to you @ Birdleson!

    International rules are broken
    The Embassy is attacked, and since CR we know that's really, really not done.
    I give Bond what he wants, and yet he’s taking far more
    Bond is asking for the Visa papers, but takes the Lector and the girl.

    The other guy had far more fun when this happened
    Kerim himself was attacked with a bomb behind the wall, and he was beeing 'entertained'.
    Time is of the essence
    Bond asks if the clock is correct, twice.

    Where I come from, the indication is always perfect
    'Russian clocks are always correct'.
