Plus I like the fact that she's mischievous! (ok I'll admit it- I would also like to be able to pull of the bikini sea scene!)
Jinx it is! I had to pause to remember which Bond Girl it was then I finished reading the post! I can always reset you to Newbie at a later day :-D

If I knew anyone owned one, I'd suggest the gentlemen all go wearing a tuxedo or something. Regardless, I'm quite surprised that I'm looking forward to it as I'm not usually too fussed prior to a screening.

Alright people! When are we going to see this film? I would quite like to book people in who want to go and see it!

I was thinking either a Thursday 6th or 13th or a Sat 8th or 15th! Waddya think? :-D Oh and the new film starts literally just after the end of Casino Royale so it might be a good idea to see that first to get an idea of what is happening. ttfn - am off to buy a new dvd! ;-)

I intend to be in Manchester on the 16th... but don't let that influence the decision, all being well I may see the movie in Edinburgh this weekend. I'll probably be up for seeing it again if you don't get around to it before I'm there.

John wants to see it, but I already have, so we will both be up for seeing it either weekend.

So at minimum me, Lizzie, Liz and John S-L! Thursdays out and I don't mind which weekend. Will see what suits Lizzie best and let you know. A sunday would be fine with me - would have to be an afternoon type event though!

How many people does it take to put a picture up?! Yikees, three must be a record - I hope it is a big picture. :lol:

It's A1 or A2 size, with a frame as well...and it's fallen down once already, so now it is getting the full-on rawl plug into the wall and double hook treatment!

The brick tends to be a little on the tough side in the new place as well...hence the drill!

Al you are more than welcome to borrow my electric screw driver / drill set (as long as it comes back in one piece).

The next two weekends I haven't a lot on...

November seems quite quiet at the moment. I hope in one way it stays quiet and inexpensive especially since we are now on the run up to Christmas! I will be doing some Chrimbo shopping this month to make sure it does not come in one big hit. :-D

*waves hand in air*

Count me in for Quantum of Solace, any day except the 23rd or 28th November (cousin/grandma's birthday and late shift at work respectively). Apparently I hadn't made my enthusiasm for it clear.

One of the guys at work has an unlimited cinema pass: he went to see it, then went right back in again for seconds. That's gotta be a good film, right?

Either that or he is easilly pleased! Right, lets set a time and date then. How about the 8 November at the AMC in Manchester at 8pm. We could meet before hand at about 6 to get tickets and then go for some dinner afterwards. What say you all?

That sounds good to me...hopefully I'll have sobered up from the early United kick-off! :-)
