    How to train your Dragonpol? No need, he is as friendly and civil as anything you will encounter here. A huge step up from that last troll to be appreciated. No one knows more about litterary Bond, but that is not the only reason to love him. His dry wit is another as is the aforementioned sympathy and support he shows everyone unless they are obvious wanke[s. I recommend his blog for anyone who has not read it.

    The first to visit my page when I was a newcomer, and for a long tome the only one, very symptomatic of the kind of guy he is. Even before I registered here, I saw him as quite a legend, and one that stood out from the crowd.

    @Drugonpal, I am so honoured to have become a friend of yours, and really happy that you get your week or so of glory. well deserved. Love you, man! \m/

    Now, what could I possibly say about Dragonpol?
    His blogs are more wholesome than a bowl of casserole
    A true Bond aficionado- his knowledge as a whole
    Often, others meet him thinking they know, then pay the toll
    It's like he's studied the Bondiverse since he was a foal
    Helps keep this forum's fire burning, his input is coal
    Since he joined this community, our hearts he has stole
    God forbid he ever leave us- who could fill that hole?
    Legendary as a dragon, glad he jumped on the MI6 wagon
    Here's cheers, now everyone raise a flagon
    To our dear Dragonpol, sir I salute you like a flagpole.

    Dragonpol. The man, the myth the Manimal. A great mind and Bond historian. Has a good sense of humor and is a pleasure to talk to. It's good to have you here and here's hoping to many more good years to come.

    I salute you my friend. :)

    Some say his brain has it's own gravitational pull and that he once battered Daniel Craig's testicles with a carpet beater.......all we know is he's called @Dragonpol. :-bd

    This appreciation of you is long overdue my friend. Enjoy it greatly. \m/

    Thank you chaps - much appreciated. And I do intend to write about Bond's testicular trauma on my blog at a later date, @WillyGalore! I keep my villainous streak well in check even though my name is Dragonpol!

    I was drinking Guinness when I was your age. And cider. And vodka. And silver bullets...

    Dragonpol is one of a kind, both in name as in style. Always the gentleman, always thoughtful, always himself. His love for Gardner novels is unmatched and his knowledge of the most obscure themes in Bondology would earn him a PhD.
    I salute you @Dragonpol! Let's make a toast with chilled ginger ale with an olive oregonian_martini.gif

    Milk of human kindness: It's a rare drink, I dare say. That plus ambrosia and you've got the best drink in the world and in the heavens. :)

    Ah, my pint is ready - I'll finish this thought later ...
