Domino would be a great name for a Dalmatian! @Gerard, I knew about the alphabetical naming of dogs in France from friends. Does it only apply to pedigrees? So you could name a mutt anything you wanted?

Glad you took the plunge, @MI6HQ! Who's your favourite Bond? Where are you from? And welcome!

I've just returned from a week in Malta. The number plate pattern there is ABC 123 and we saw a lot of 007 ones - this was my favourite:

I love the scratchcard - what a cute little piece of ephemera!

Thank you, folks! There was a decal for the watch face but it didn’t please me so I went with clear blue paint over silver, then a coat of luminous. Now with Brozza commentary from Twitter’s inimitable Stu! https://twitter.com/solts007/status/…

Hurricane Gold is the only Young Bond I've read and I did enjoy it - I love making his aunt a world traveller. On the whole I'd rather not know about Bond's childhood - it's clear he'd rather forget it himself, and I imagine it being very ordinary r…

The Harry Palmer TV series made me realise I'm tired of hearing what the protagonist hears after an explosion - when everything goes muffled and their ears ring. It happened in NTTD and al I could think of was Sterling Archer getting tinnitus from a…

Something a little different: 1996 statuette of Pierce Brosnan as James Bond, made by Dragon. I used luminous paint for the watch face :)
-
Obviously this is not the place for a Tintin discussion (although Daniel Craig did one of the voices!) but I really wanted to like the film more than I did. It had some brilliant elements but it didn't click for me.

I was talking about Carte Blanche in the pub last night (it was a Bond fan gathering, I wasn't just being a nuisance) and how much I liked the updating of Bond's background; how would someone become a double O in the modern age, without a wartime pa…

I'm a little late to congratulate you, @DarthDimi, but I did have a Fruli on Sunday if that helps? Happy birthdayversary!

I enjoyed this very much - I like the characters and care about them, and the opening with the old-skool ident had me yelping with joy. Liking Cole's performance, too - yes, he's young, but his army experience has aged him up, made him cynical an…
