The latest "annoyingly named storm" currently swamping the extensive gardens here at Dolores Delargo Towers is called "Aiden".
The spelling may be different, but any excuse for some gratuitous pictures of the lovely Mr Turner...
Drooling aside, sad news has arrived today - the "archetypal James Bond" Sean Connery is dead.
- Read my tribute to him just this August, on the occasion of his 90th birthday.
Mr Connery was well-known for his "hard-man" roles, but in just about every part he played, there was always that slight twinkle in his eye that said he wasn't taking himself entirely seriously...
...which is probably just as well in this early role, in which he was called upon to sing!
RIP, Sir Thomas Sean Connery (25th August 1930 – 31st October 2020)
Happy Hallowe"en to you!!!! Any time to see Aidan without a shirt on is a treat! Now do you suppose we can get Sean spirit to make an appearance?

DeleteMs Scarlet is going to be thrilled with this post. Just THRILLED! (As am I)
ReplyDeleteUntil she gets to the Sean Connery bit, that is...
I would have posted more, but I thought we might have another "Battle of the Demelzas" on our hands... Jx

ReplyDeleteA sad loss
Shouldn't that be "a shad losh"?
DeleteI do agree, however. Jx
With these pictures [Aidan Turner, specifically] you are spoiling us. Isn't he just the best???
ReplyDeleteSean was nice too.

He's going to be appearing in a new series all about Leonardo daVinci next year, so expect excess beardiness covering that pretty face... Jx
DeleteHe looks good in the Radio Times pic....*swoons*
DeleteGood heavens, I am all unnecessary today!
He can't not look hot though, can he?

Take a swig of whisky, Ms Scarlet - I think you have a touch of the vapours... Jx
Delete"Where'sh ma fuckin' shubmarine?"
ReplyDeleteI'll step aside now. It wouldn't do to get into an unseemly scrap with Scarlet...
Indeed!
