Good one, amej. Thanks for hosting, rekal, and for the votes, simon, swarb, and amej.

raffles: We used to have two Bond girls living on our island. Honor Blackman (Pussy Galore) died a few years back but Lois Chiles (Holly Goodhead) still lives there (she was in Moonraker with Roger Moore). How random is that?

Well done Amej and thanks Rekal. It was more difficult than we thought, looked easy to start with.
Thanks also for votes received.

Aristo, good to have you back. I hope you have mega jet-lag; travelling far is always rewarding. As the good Doctor Holly said: "Oh James, take me around the world one more time."

Moore was lighthearted whereas later Bonds were far too serious - even our own Pierce Brosnan was better in The Tailor of Panama, sending up Bond.

raffles: I saw Holly last summer (she lives down the road from us) and she's still gorgeous at almost eighty.

A while back I said my traveling days were over, but we've been to Europe three times in the past three years.

Thank you simplesimon.

You’re right. It’s so confusing…..

The easier they look, the harder it gets.

Aristo - get her autograph and I’ll swop you my Tippi Hedren 😀
She reminds me of another beauty, who sadly passed away last week - Moyà Brennan. Here’s a clip from the stupendous 70s, when us men had longer hair than the women!

We haven’t been away since last April, due to my wife’s medical woes - I was hoping to have vada(ed) some dolly old ekes by now!
