    Hello mcarthy, and welcome to AJB. Firstly, please take a look at this introduction for new members: http://www.ajb007.co.uk/topic/45180/introduction-how-to-use-the-forum/

    I hope you enjoy yourself here!

    In reply to your post, Kingsley Amis put it very well fifty years ago: "The number and variety of Bond's useful skills may be fantastic, but each seems reasonable while we're hearing about it." I'm wondering why you seem to have only watched the trailers...?

    I watched the trailer in order to associate the skill that I remembered with the right movie.

    Bobsleigh isn't really one of his skills. French and German is. So is tank driving (GE)

    Bond is a great liar/actor, when he is on assignment ,he is normaly someone else , not oh hallo my names James Bond and im a spy ) its very difficult to keep up the story of being someone else ,as I have had to do on many occasion ,when on plain clothes/survailence duties :D
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?
  • AlphaOmegaSinAlphaOmegaSin EnglandPosts: 10,924MI6 Agent
    Probably the hardest is when you had to go Undercover as a Lady of the Night? :))
