So, did anyone get any Bond prezzies under the tree this year?

 

Unfortunately, nothing for me. And I was really hoping for Lea Seydeaux!

 

I'll have to keep dreaming on, I guess.

I got the books 'The Man With The Golden Typewriter, Ian Fleming's Janes Bond Letters' and 'James Bond Cars'. Unexpected so they were a nice suprise. The Fleming letters in particular looks interesting.

I got the "Bond by Design" book this morning.  Amazingly in-depth and gorgeously put together!  :)

For me, it was Bond by Design and the Fleming letters. Flickin' through the Design book now, accompanied by something 35 year old from my father's liquor cabinet (local Williams pear "Eau de vie") and a nice Brasil cigarillo...  B)

All great gifts indeed. I'm envious.

 

Although, I did get a JB Hi-Fi gift card, so I'll place a pre-order for the SPECTRE Blu-ray. Xmas in March for me!

Instead of spending money, my daughter gifted me with an original painting of the Bond gun barrel all from her memory. I'm proudly displaying it on my Bond bookshelf.

I got a 1983 LP of the Octopussy soundtrack. My wife found it by pure fluke in a record shop in rural Ontario. It looks as though it was never played the condition is so flawless. Very unexpected and a nice addition to my collection of Bond goods.

I got 'Blood, Sweat and Bond', 'Some kind of Hero' and some more of the John Gardner novels. Although, I'm now looking online and think this might have to be purchased...
