I'll always have a soft spot for The Spy Who Loved Me. My first time to see a Bond movie in the cinema. My brother brought me.
Total cinema for a young boy, with silly gadgets and an underwater car!
I do have a lot of love for No Time To Die, too.

I'm in Ireland, and visited a friend in Boston in 2017. He kindly brought me to a Patriots' game, as he knew I loved (American) football. I witnessed fans booing their own players for taking a knee during the anthem. I knew the US had irrevocably changed.
I've never watched the NFL since.

#scovire Rugby is a game played over 80 minutes, played by 30 players, and in the end Scotland don't show up.

England were aggressive from the outset. We didn't get much time on the ball in the first 25 minutes. Then we grew into the game.
Second half was our most cohesive performance since the World Cup.
The two soft tries at the end will irritate, though.

At this stage, "thoughts and prayers" may be an option. Or a blood sacrifice.

Damn it, I still can't order from Ireland.
I'll enter the competition.

It's not an appropriate punishment for serious foul play, especially if the fouled player has to leave the pitch.

I'm compelled to use the Amazon UK store, even though where I live most definitely is not part of the UK.
Jeff needs history lessons.

Thank you!
It's out of stock at the moment.
Bad news for me, but good news for you.

I'm delighted your book is out tomorrow.
I'm less delighted that, despite extensive searching, it does not appear to be on the UK Amazon site.
How can I give you my money?!?
Maybe it'll appear after the release date.

I was going to tell you this.
Will the audiobook be available on the UK Audible site? Or is there an audiobook?

I think 2025 will be hotter and more lethal.

Thanks for the clarification. I'll get onto it.

Hi Ed. I'll be damned if I can find Lightfall for pre-order on Kindle. I'm in Ireland, so am using the UK store.
I want to give you some money. Please help!

Don't tell me that the crinkle in Meg Ryan's forehead was CGI!
Magic - ruined!

Excellent. Honestly, the book sounds great, but the author...

I actually meant Light fall, by...some guy.
I must have replied to the wrong message.

Looking forward to reading the book. Will it be available on Kindle?

Absolutely 100% would attend a festival of your 20 movie selections. I'd definitely sit around after, chatting with a never-ending smile on my face. Superb selection.
Please post them in list form, so that I can send it to friends that have some time off next week.
