I lived in NYC for a year and have been in Harlem being friendly with and under the protection of a local or two, and was in the WTC several times while they stood. I've driven the same expressway used in the car chase. I've also spent a day and night in Nawlins eating and getting somewhat gassed drunk at the Commander's Palace and in the French Quarter. I was also in Miami International Airport for a stopover on my way to the USVI. A stay at the Ocean Beach Club and touring all the locations used in the Bahamas is on the agenda, after my son and I climb some Caribbean volcanoes and do some zip lining while booked on a Lesser Antilles cruise :)
I got mine from CafePress.co.uk as well as t-shirts for Zorin Industries, Auric Enterprises, Osato Chemicals, Drax Industries, Stromberg shipping and Octopussy's Circus, it was a few years ago and I don't know if they're still available.
Indeed. Great photos there.
Rotten luck, I checked their site and couldn't find anything. I sent them a note to see if they have any old ones available in their warehouse. If only I'd known I would have gotten everything but Drax, my son would have loved Octopussy's Circus although I don't know if he could have worn that one to school :))
Here are a couple sites that carry some. The first one is full of some I've not seen before. Might find a few you like.

You are the bomb Kitty. Even though you know it from PM's, I am so glad you are back :). I will check them out immediately and the response from the firm @Saunders mentions.
Second - welcome back to @retrokitty!! I am new since you were on this forum before, but I have heard nice things about you and I'm sure plenty of folks are glad you are back. Please stick around. :)
Invite her to your ladies room thread where the hardcore lady Bond fans lounge about :)
Thank you, very much. :)
Yes please! :P
And obviously you haven't recently, SirHenry. ;)
It was amazing the location has hardly changed and it's beautiful, if I had been shot dead on my wedding day and got to be buried here I would consider myself a very lucky man! Here are a collection of my photos for anyone interested in a admittedly minor Bond location.

Tracy's grave location

The field the helicopter landed in (right next to the graveyard as it appears in the film.

Spot where the vicar did his cross sign, actually facing Tracy's grave rather than the field.

One of me in the vain hope someone will say what a good Bond I'd make. ;)
[img][/img]
Failing that here's my attempt at a smaller role
[img][/img]
At the back of the church I stumbled upon this rather familiar Bond location, Stoke Poges golf course though the big threatening red sign forbidding trespassing stopped me investigating further (not very Bond like of me admittedly!)
[img][/img]
And that was it, having strode round the grounds in a very purposeful Roger Moore like way (though unlike me I don't think he had accidently left his flies undone revealing bright red pants to the world), I made my way back to the car and that's where our paths separated, Bond went to on to battle Blofeld, Kristatos and rescue Melina, I went drove home to make some baked beans on toast with Bill Conti's Runaway blasting through my ears.
They are awesome pictures! Certainly has not changed much at all has it? Certainly did not realise that it backed onto the golf course?! Thanks for posting and sharing them!
Something did strike me as I stood staring longingly at the golf course, and that was the plentiful sounds of birdsong in this quiet landscape that sounds exactly like it did in the film during the golfing scenes.
Has anyone else got any Bond location visits they'd like to share? I'd love to hear about them!

Lots more Bond sites to see in London but I ran out of time, hope you like them,
" ... brightly primary coloured, costumed men patrolling the grounds with big sticks (ok they may of been golf clubs!), I was worried if I did try and cross the bridge, Gunther would appear and start shouting 'Strictly forbidden' at me. " - you really make me laugh sometimes. That is hilarious.
Good quality pics indeed - and may I just say it? What a great Bond you'd make, dear Saunders. Even when driving a Lotus disguised as a Honda. ;)
(I currently don't have a vehicle; don't need one here in biking/walking/train-taking western Japan. By the way, I tried out some Wai Lin moves on my dog - he fell down laughing, as only dogs can.)
You are now my most favourite member ever 4EverBonded! :D
Nice try on the OHMSS re-creation. ;)
