It's "High Time To Kill" for a Bond fans gathering. It's been too long for most of us in the States and elsewhere also. Top ideas have included Vegas, The Bahamas, Jamaica, and some spots in Florida—each with plenty of locations to see and good times to be had.

I'll be setting a conference call for fans next Saturday, March 3 at 9 PM EST to discuss two items. The first half of the call will be about a fan gathering, the second half is for collectors to share tips, fill in collection gaps and talk shop.

The call is free other than if you pay long distance for the area code:
(USA) 712-775-7100, enter 895678# when prompted to join the call.

I look forward to catching up with many of you then. Cheers.

I might chime in. Duly noted, and yes, another gathering might be fun.

Jamaica would be my first vote, but the Keys and SF wouldn't be too far behind. I'll make sure the white dinner jacket is ready - after Memorial Day of course. B)

Not sure if I'll make the upcoming conference call, but did want to give all my friends here on CBn a head's up that a "Bond Weekend" is being planned in conjunction with the upcoming "Bond Watches, James Bond Watches" exibit at the National Watch & Clock Museum.

Still finalizing the date, but anticipate mid-September.

Will post more details here as they become available.

The call went rippingly well. Some called for a New York/Mid-Atlantic gathering while many fans are still asking for another Bahamas/Jamaica cruise with me again as tour guide.

It would be hard to top our cruise to The Bahamas to see Largo's home in person and other NSNA/Thunderball/Casino Royale sites closed to the public. One can always try!
