When you need a little bit more Bond
The name's not Bond, James Bond may be one of the most famous introductions ever, but this time it is Scott talking to you, and I have to say that I am a bit of a Bond fan.
Not only have I read the novels and seen all the movies, but I have also bought the T-Shirt...........more specifically I bought one from our cheeky new range of James Bond TShirts.
To give you a bit of a history lesson (and you thought school was over?), the very first outing for 007 was in the 1953 novel "Casino Royale" by the legend Ian Fleming, this was followed in quick succession with a book a year until 1966.
Amongst these stories are some iconic names of villains and assistants we all know and love including the likes of.... Le Chiffre, Rosa Klebb, Francisco Scaramanga, Nick Nack, Max Zorin, Hugo Drax, Ernst Blofeld, Odd Job, Jaws and Pussy Galore (although she did switch sides).
Our friends at the always cool Chunk Clothing have taken some of these villains and showcased them into an awesome new range of alternative T-Shirts. Take a look!
The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 218
Air tanks and flippers! It's time for another retro movie filled weekend.
Like an experienced and battle scarred shark diver, we find ourselves dipping our feet once again into troublesome water full of majestic and wild beasts. After checking all our gear and steadying our nerves, we'll push off and dive down into the big blue, home to our creatures of interest. With a perfect balance of tranquillity and awe-inspiring power, we'll swim with some of the most feared and respected beings on the planet as they quietly and curiously inspect our presence.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Like a super keen and well-prepared applicant awaiting a job interview, we'll let the anticipation slowly rise as the moment of truth draws ever closer. Taking deep and controlled breaths, we'll feel the tension rise as we scan our notes over and over, remembering to sit up straight, speak clearly and with confidence. Will we land the job of our dreams? Only time will tell.

Cast a spell and mix a potion! It's a retro movie filled weekend allllll over again.
Like an old, experience and ever-wise wizard, we'll throw on our battle torn cloak, grab our trusty wand and head out into the misty night. Walking almost silently through the cold air, we'll glide our way to help those in need, casting spells and mixing potions to aid even the most obscure of situations with a flourish.
Have a happy retro weekend!
