Tim....BREATHE. Inhale....exhale....inhale...exhale....

We are working on finding 007, we are just not doing so publicly. Fixating on Mr. Clue was just part of the game....to distract the game keepers from the game players.

But just for the sake of argument....there were times when Mr. Clue was on, and you couldn't have been. So there are two of you....which is fine.

Don't worry...we'll find 007.

So it was you! I never would've suspected it. But on with the game...

For convieniant purposes, I have compiled a list of all the clues so far:

CLUE:
007 seems to be AWOL


CLUE:
DLibrasnow (001) finds Bond's gunmetal cigarette case. The cover has been scratched with the Russian letter for 'sch', first part of 'Spionam.'

The Russian word for 'spy.'


CLUE:
Xenobia (002) and Bryce (003) stumble across a used condom in the bin


CLUE:
M summons Xenobia (002) to her Vauxhall Cross office


CLUE:
Jaelle manages to find only a few used pizza boxes whilst rummaging through the rubbish


CLUE:
If you want the answers, the facts can only be uncovered here.



CLUE:
001 notices a slip of paper tucked under table in the sixth floor lobby. He turns it over to find a single picture printed on it.



CLUE:
Jenkins from imaging tells 001 and 009 that the picture appears to be a white cat, or possibly a small white dog, with an eyepatch on a rooftop. There are large satelite dishes in the background. One with the number four on it. The resolution is too poor to get a make on the types of trees or the plates on the automobiles.


CLUE:
Jenkins from imaging questions how 002 would know that. It looks real enough to him. And he points out that he, not her, is the expert.


CLUE:
00* notices that Bond's computer has been tampered with.


CLUE:
00* finds that Bond's secret printer queue record has been wiped clean.


CLUE:
G finds a small, pale-yellow slip of paper on the floor. Curious, he picks it up. Suddenly, the paper begins to disolve with the touch of his finger, but before it completely disolves G reads the partial number "27031...". Then the paper is gone. No trace is left.


CLUE:
M furiously tells Moneypenny to forget about 003 and 004 now and that the two of them seem not to care for the case she has assigned... or their 00 numbers.


CLUE:
001 receives a transmission on his watch radio, apparently from his old contact Gugleilmo Franco in Rome.


001 THOUGHT YOUD BE INTERESTED STOP THE VATICANS ENTIRE SUPPLY OF FISH FOR TOMORROWS MEALS ALL ARE MISSING ONE EYE STOP GF

CLUE:
A fax has come in to Moneypenny's office. The fax says that it from the house of one Mr. Charles Axeworthy from Southern California USA. The fax trace log confirms this.



CLUE:
Q-Branch examines the Fax and report that while the document has no fingerprints there are several catprints that can be made out and while catprint science is not precise these prints match those found in several of 007's cases involving SPECTRE.

The partial number (27031...) clue is puzzling me the most. I typed in 027031 as a thread number and got this thread, although I have no idea what it has to do with anything, and we are led to believe that 27031 was the beginning of a number (with no zero).

Okay, can we stop looking privately now because:
a) We won’t find clues unless Tim... erm.. Mr. Clue knows to tell us.
:) If we look where Bond is and Mr. Clue or Brett don’t know it how will they tell us that he is there?
c) It is not helping.

I just tried the number in Google and got this:

http://www.nwl.ac.uk...es/027/031.html

That is interesting. I’ll take this one, anyone want to go along?

And does anyone else care to check out the other Google matches?

The thing that gets me is it is supposedly a partial number. Only I can't think of what would come after that. You have a look around at Colne, and tell me if you find anything.

(That was an inside joke. Xen—for some reason that I have not understood—has taken to saying ‘Shut Up, Tim’ to anything Tim says. So she can take it.)

[via radio] Good point, One-eleven. I’ll still check out Colne, but let me know if anything more pressing comes your way.

CLUE:


oo4 recieves this picture message on his mobile phone. It seems to have come from 007's secure line. The special Q-Branch software on his mobile flashes the following message.


WARNING: MESSAGE SENT FROM DELAYED SEND


No text was sent with the picture.

Now, does anybody know where that is? It has to be somewhere with a Hilton hotel, and on 4th (or 9th) Avenue.

4 avenue might be the name of the casino.

Can anyone take the graffetti off the picture?

And here's a thought 27031....could be a birthdate, written British style. In other words March 27th...and some year.

Anyone know that birthdate?

That’s my birthday. Weird. March 27, 1964. But what does it mean? Am I the first and/or next target?

Hmmmm. What does this mean? I would watch my back if I were you.

I've managed to make the website at the bottom of that pic a little clearer, but it's still very hard to see. It looks like it says '[something indecipherable] M"CC Systems http://[the rest is unknown]' I don't think it has www. in the address as about the third character has a long stem and is visible above the paint.

Nice. Can we fire Jenkins and put One-eleven in charge of Imaging?

Also I did a search on Hilton.com for 4th Avenue and only came up with Nashville, Tennessee. But judging by the map it is in Downtown Nashville and having driven through that city, that picture does not look right. I could be wrong.

Oh, thank you, 00*.

After re-reading the clues I again came across the one with the #4 sattelite. Assuming the 27031 is meant to be your birthday, 00*, the four could represent the year you were born: 1964. A coincidence, perhaps, but I thought I would mention it.

00Kevin sits in the charter air plane...bothered by the humming and rocking of the old thing, he closes his eyes and tries to recall how this all began

---------------------------

Hours earlier....Nepal

he has been in charge of Station N: Nepal for along time now. working as a bartender at a shack of a bar know as 'the raven'. He sat there, not many people here today.

suddenly a metalic strip came out of his watch with a message:

00Kevin. Come to MI6 Immediatly. Contact on flight. M.

He quickly grabbed his laptop and a few bags with all the supplies he would need, should he need any weapons or gadgets.

"okay Marion, I have to fly, I'll see you next week or something....."

"what? get back here!"

"Marion....there are barely any customers here anyways....." he turns to his friend in a booth "I'll see you later Attila. Mind the fort"

he heads down to the airstrip and charters a flight with his friend, Pilot Raffey De Leon.

--------------------------------

Once on the flight, he was contacted by Robinson. He Breifed him on everything.

"Okay Charles....here we go: I want you to test the condom, see if we can match any DNA."

"Right away 00Kevin."

"and what of the latest picture?"

"well, It looks like the cars drive on the RIGHT side of the road.....the signs are in english....and the stop lights are black.....This points To California, send some men out there. hmmmm, 4th avenue perhaps....could this involve the 4 on that satellite? Also there is a giant Cat on the side of the side of the street....opposite side that is.....blofeld's cat no doubt."

"I will sir."

"Right.....I'll se you later, keep me informed on any developments."


--------------------------


It had been along flight...but he was getting close now..

[via radio]Nevermind Nashville. I found a photo of the Nashville Hilton and it is not a match.

::00* spins at the movement of a shadow behind him. Two quick shots from the ASP and the shadow’s owner falls dead.::

Oh, well. One less squirel to litter the tyres of the Colne drivers.

I see nothing here. I’ll look for five more minutes and then I’m heading back.
