...and did the most charming young lady wear a lifejacket?
No, she did not.  "There was a violent cruelty, a pathological desire to wound, quite near the surface in the man." CBn: ...we have people everywhere Only James Bond is James Bond. |

Tuuli Shipster, the model featured on the front cover of the book, will be delivering these exclusive first 007 copies from the printers by hand, under a full military escort care of the Royal Navy. The books will be secured in a specially commissioned Samsonite case, and Tuuli will accompany the case as it is brought down the Thames by a Royal Navy Pacific 24 sea-boat - under the watchful eye of the Royal Navy Black Cat Lynx helicopters. They will rendezvous with HMS Exeter, which will be moored in the Pool of London. I may be a grumpy old git, but I'm slightly disturbed that the Navy provides a full military escort, with a sea-boat and helicopters, for the launch plan of what is, all things considered, a commercial launch plan.

Never will we find truth if we content ourselves with what is already known. |

Yeah but its not like the Navy have much to do these days. It's not as if the Taliban own any battleships. Why not rent them out for promo events? Serve on hot buttered toast in individual copper dishes (for appearance only) with pink champagne (Taittinger) and low music.

Plus a video here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7420894.stm
Were there any more Bentleys involved? It's just that I passed a lovely 1930s one on the back of a trailer which was going towards London on my way home- I expect it was too late for it to have been involved, but you never know. |

She looked pretty damn sexy. I wonder what Craig thinks knowing that a book got the same treatment he did when he was announced as Bond - only the book was accompanied by a sexy blonde, while he had no female company. |
