I haven’t seen it yet, but Spud has. He is sixteen and unimpressable, so consider the value of this Six Word Saturday:

Spud says:
Best Bond film ever.

I welcome your comments but be warned: I'm menopausal and as likely to snarl as smile. Wine or Maltesers are an acceptable bribe; or a compliment about my youthful looks and cheery disposition will do in a pinch.
This Is Me:
I am a little fat. I like food; what can I say? I have dull hair: mousey. I don’t wear much make-up and have no need of a dressing table. If I look like a bag lady, I chose my own clothes. If I look nice, the Hub picked them for me. Despite all this, I am a little vain. This photograph is from 2003. I had to go back that far to find one of me that I liked. But I don’t really care: my husband still thinks I’m beautiful and if he doesn’t, he loves me enough to lie about it. I’m lucky. I have two boys. They never lie to me. Still, you can't have everything.
I have the funniest readers in the blogosphere (not necessarily ha ha…)

Techie went last night but we haven’t had the report yet! I heard Dame Judy on the radio discussing her role a little. What a star she is.

Hi Tilly Bud, I’m not much of a newer-Bond fan, but this guy is quite captivating. I think I’ll make an exception and see this one!

I’ve never watched a Bond movie yet, although I have seen snippets of them from time to time. I liked Sean Connery and think Daniel Craig is all wrong for the part. However, what do I know? Nothing it seems.
PS, I didn’t mention it to Gigi, but a friend of mine doing field work in India came back with Hep B or C. Of course this was a year or two ago. Time flies.

It must be, even based on the trailer….which my dear Left Brained husband stood 4 inches from our big screen TV and watched with mouth agape. I may have even saw some drooling. I had to call his name at least 6 times to get his attention and let him know that the pot on the stove – upstairs from where he came dashing from when he heard that theme music – was boiling over.
I’m a good wife: I had the trailer all cued up on my lap top for him when he came back to the kitchen. He watched it again. 4 times. I watched the pot (on the stove, to clarify!)

I think we love Bond … in whatever shape and form he comes … even a not so good Bond movie is still good. We take it for what it’s and we enjoy it for what it’s – but I take Spud’s word and I’m really looking forward to this one. Can’t wait to see it. Daniel is a good Bond too, the best maybe. Thanks for this one.

I was just on someone else’s 6WS that said they saw the movie. Worst yet, I didn’t even know there was a new one out. Glad to hear your son liked it! I’m sure it is a good one indeed!
